When I was 5, our house burned down, and we had to stay with neighbors for a couple months. During that time, all I did was play with the neighbor kid's legos. These were his legos. Especially the late 90's sets. Gosh they bring back memories. They ended up giving me some because, well, we had literally no toys since our house fire, and I kept playing with them for years. Now I have my own kids, who are just barely old enough to enjoy legos, and I need to get the old lego sets down from the attic and relive my childhood with them.

Oh my goodness! Some of my first Lego sets ever! Nostalgia is hitting hard!! Being from South America during the 80s, Lego blocks were really hard if not impossible to get. I had to ask my relatives living in the US to bring me some sets when they visited us. So I had to wait long periods of time hoping I would get something when they came. When my family visited the US for the first time in 1990, we went to Toys'R' Us and I thought I was gonna get a heart attack when I saw aisle after aisle full of different Lego sets. Sweet childhood memories.

Ahh the fond memories :-) I had many of the models from 78 to 83 ... looking at them all now, I am amazed at the change of themes, it goes from discovery, science and exploration at the beginning to alien, police and even fighters and war machines at the end of the 90's. I am unsure what changed in society and the need to push in this direction, since I remember my friends and I where already really thrilled by the models of the beginning.

I also was very proud to own every single original Blacktron set: Invader, Battrax, Renegade, Alienator, and Message Intercept Base (2nd favorite set). I also had the SP Striker (Light and Sound), Galactic Peace Keeper, Spy Trak 1. Also, I had Magnetron: Pulsar Charger, Beacon Tracer, Vector Detector, Particle Ionizer, Mega Core Magnetizer (which is still built I think- probably at my parent’s house!). Great trip down memory lane.

Pain in the brain trying to remember which sets I had from these in the 80s. I remember better what kind of bricks I had than a specific set.

Also as a child back then you spend so much time going through Toy Catalogues full of lego sets that you might remember what you saw or dreamed of having, lol. 90s set actually look foreign to me so I guess i stopped playing with legos then. Thank for the videos, nostalgy is strong in this one.

6861 X1 Patrol Craft! That was my first Lego set (as in, not just a bucket of bricks). I remember my older brother helping me put it together once (I was too young to follow the instructions, just barely old enough to remember getting it for Christmas), and then after it was disassembled and the instructions lost I tried for years to put it back together from memory but never really could. I had a picture in my mind of what it was in general, but I could never remember how certain parts needed to be arranged. Seeing this now, that is 100% the thing. That was the shape, those were the pieces, and that was the space man.
