when I was a kid i got many of these sets. I'm impressed how my memory remembers each one of them, how and when I got them.

Basically, the history of Lego City: 1978 - Lego City is established as a railroad town 1980s - Economic growth booms and populations rise, construction business explodes in stocks 1985 - Middle class grows 1988 - Lego City takes advantage of the Racing industry 1989 - Public services like Police and Fire departments established 1990s - Trading from worldwide shipping made popular 1990 - Airports and vacation services popularized 1994 - Beaches are taken advantage of and industrialized 1996 - Zoos, Oil extraction, and shipping is mastered 1999 - Business sector completely established 2000s 2002 - Space industry established 2003 - Private market and agriculture stocks grow high 2005 - Housing and real estate markets growing high, but bubble forms 2006 - Aviation and train service passes and constructed, public housing and infrastructure is also made 2008 - Suicide rates climb, so helicopter and emergency services are made 2010s 2012 - Zoos and real estate companies gain debt, but gdp per capita still grows 2013 - Real Estate bubble bursts, rent and buying prices jump. Companies overspend, underpaying workers 2014 - Crime rates start increasing, increasing demand for police. 2015 - Middle class shrinks dramatically, while the rich get richer 2016 - Fugitives escape to the rural areas, increasing police demand outside the city 2017 - Nationwide and citywide protests occur, vandalism across streets and burns most of the city is burned, sparking demand for fire rescuers and firetrucks. 2018 - Job market destroyed, so remaining city infrastructure is left untouched and managed. But some people still continue their lives amid the chaos. And an ancient city is discovered in the rural areas, sparking researchers, thieves, and jobs. 2019 - Moon and space exploration is embraced, but overspending further decreased the middle class 2020s 2020 - The city is calmer, but crime still exists. Prisons are overcrowded sparking demand for more prisons, raising the working-class population. Sad, the Lego City used to be so good. Now it's a dystopian burnt hierarchical society pieced with corruption and poverty.

whoever made it through the whole video I have your respect

i'm surprised how nice the sets got in the early 90's

Not gonna lie, I like the older lego sets more. I didn’t grown up with them, but they’ve got that simplistic charm to them. Of course, the newer sets are really detailed, so they have that going for them

47:14 ahh the nostalgia!

Nostalgia hit me hard

05:21 my first ever Lego car

2005 sets start at 46:47 You’re welcome

49:27 a man has fallen into the river in lego city

I cant remember what i had for lunch but i remember every lego set i had 30 years ago.

I grew up with the LEGO sets from 2012-2017 I think about them everyday

01:00:21 My first ever lego set 🤧🥺 Thanks you dad and mom ❤ Nostalgia hits hard

7:57 my first Lego Fuel Station

Thanks for creating this compilation. I really enjoyed it. Fantastic seeing how sets have evolved over the years. So much nostalgia with the older sets I had as a kid in the late 70s and early 80s. I kept all my lego from my childhood even through my “dark ages” and have added many more to the collection as an adult. What a fantastic toy and hobby lego is. Great video.

the 80`s and 90`s sets have so much character, they managed to make some amazing things with such a limited amount of parts... many of them look way comfyer than the newer ones SOUL!

56:00 my first ever Lego car

10:29 my Dad has that set until I took it apart for parts as a kid Man that’s sad.

thanks for posting this... all the child hood memories from the 80s sets brought a joyful tear to my eye. its amazing how Lego has advanced so much yet changed so little.

Love this video ! Brings me so many memories

Seeing some of these sets helps me to connect some of the weird pieces I've found in my dad's collection of Legos to what they were! Maybe my kids will see this kind of video in 20 years and think the same thing about their grandpa's & Dad's Lego collection! Moment of silence for: Those blue railroad tracks that I broke in half to make lightsabers with...

Wow! Great video! So much nostalgia. At 27:58 is mi first ever Lego set, which I received as a gift when I was around 7. Fortunately, I was able to foud it a couple years ago on Amazon, in sealed condition for around 40 bucks. Instantly bought it and now have it a my desk on a display case as a collectible :)

Thanks for the work done! A very exciting video!

When I was little My grandma gave me some old lego that belonged to my mom and her brothers, u think they had the set on 32:43, however I only have two sharks (gladly one of them is the one with the weird sword like nose), the background rocks, the yellow propeller, algae, the sand colored plate and two yellow ladders and what they’re holding on to

*My first ever Lego set was **32:50** 😎, good ol' memories 90's* ♥️

Finally i been waiting for a video of this

I recall having two sets when I was a kid. One was the classic space ship. The other I could never remember even after watching several Lego vintage videos. That other set had a white fence, Windows with swinging covers, a tree and a 4x 1 brick with grill & headl ights print. No other mini figs except the classic space man

1:00:13 my first ever LEGO set bring back nostalgia.

That's a huge video. Nice work

Whoever made this video, you have my utmost respect.

As this sets are on the screen we think back on our childhoods

As a kid growing up in the 2000’s and early 2010’s I believe these were legos best years

1:02:28 brings back memories, my mom bought it for me 3 times when I was 7. Ahhh 1:05:46... my first ever LEGO set 😢 sorry so emotional. 1:08:26 my most ever expensive LEGO set.. I have a video of me playing with it..1:09:04 my most favourite LEGO set ever.

def bring'n back all the FEELS! had a bunch of these sets as a child ❤

Huge amounts of respect for putting this together man

Wow some of those pieces are older than I thought, quite the legacy each type of piece has, I find it fascinating.

The police force is my favorite and thank you because it flooded good memories

1:05:49 I remember that set my brother made it n gave it to me brings back many memories of playing with it ❤️👍this was one of my first Lego sets!!

Why do I find Lego city had MUCH more soul before despite its simplicity?

SO many sets from the 80's to early 90's i had as a kid. dang that took me back!

This REALLY takes me back!

14:14 my first lego❤

Amazing idea and video!

My first own Lego set is not on this video because it was one of the "Black Knights" sets (6034 Black Monarch's Ghost), released in 1990. It's really a charming and cute set, even if the theme is rather spooky. I mostly had sets from the early 90s and I loved the Paradisa sets, they had a slight girly touch but it wasn't too much like the "Friends" franchise today. The 6416 set is still one of the best ever IMHO. That pool baseplate is just so cool.

5:10 was my first one that I actually kept without destroying

Awesome vids...... Keep up the good work

Got kit 575 Coast Guard Station for my birthday. I remember being amazed because it was the first Lego figures I had with moving arms and legs! It was the beginning of quite a collection. A lot of great memories!

15:50 Xmas 1988 and my first set from Santa 🎅🏻. Build so many times that pieces stopped holding on to each other. Could build it now with my eyes shut.

This 80s and early 90's sets give me back many memories. I owned lot's of them.

35:20 my first lego set. I was 4 2006 City airport was my last set when I was 11. It was my christmas gift and I remember waking up so early to play 😭

not gonna like i shed a couple tears watching this video because it reminded me off all the sets i had as a kid and played with

The most anticipated video in the history of the internet

55:56 one of my first lego sets

At 40:05 was the first LEGO set I bought at Legoland California for my birthday. I was eight years old and already had the rest of the Space Port sets, the memories.

Im a 80's kid. I'm so glad I kept my collection.

My dad got so many from 80's and 90's when i was 6 or 7 i played with his lego's and the memories are coming back. 🤤

the 2003-2007 sets give so much nostalgia of building these with my dad ❤️

I had a few LEGO sets growing up but they were mostly out of my family’s price range. Now as a parent I must have purchased my kids close to a hundred LEGO sets. My favorites are food-associated LEGO city sets. I have a little scene set up with the tiny popcorn and hotdog men, the popsicle truck, the pizza truck and the Target exclusive coffee stand. Wanna get the hamburger place that’s on fire soon.

Man I really need to go thru my old Lego again.

Cool video keep up the good work

Interesting video keep up the great video

1:13:05 I remember when i get this from my mother!!! I really wanted an aeroplane and she bought this for me❤❤

i love your channel so much

Those sets between 1995 and 2005 make me very nostalgic, they used so many bright clear plastic parts during that time

50:57 didnt think i could get thrown that far down memory lane by a photo

Very comprehensive! I love watching the evolution from the primitive sets of the late 70s to the detailed ones of the present. I estimate I owned over 50 of these from the mid 80s to the early 90s. My first was 588 The Police Station. Among my favorites was 6392 The Cargo Center, 6392 The Airport, 6393 The Big Rig Truck Stop, 4030 The Cargo Ship, 6385 The Fire Station, 6379 The Riding Stable, 6386 The Police Station, 6380 The Hospital, and 3395 The Race Track. I want to add the train station to this list, but that along with the train and another train station in yellow bricks were not included. At first I thought trains were in a different section and not part of Lego City, but I see the monorail set from 1990 along with more modern train stations that were released later. Was this an oversight or were train sets classified as something else back in the early days?

10:35 Im currently constructing that set, the airplane and Heli are done already. I still have those plates with the runway on it.

When u watch this and u think: "Damn, l had a shit ton of LEGO sets"

For someone who got their first lego city set in 2004 when I was 3 years old, and how I'm still into it and collecting to this day, this video hit me hard

I found the Res-Q range of sets very appealing but by that time I had already started high school & Lego was seen as a Kid's toy. Looking back I would have loved to have those sets despite being more of Space theme kid.

I’ve been looking for this

1:08:32 My first ever lego set I got. Brings me memories when I was younger., 😔

I smile every time i see the set i have here ;)

nice video!!

We owned (and still own! :-) ) the Riding Stable (6379) and the Holiday Home (6374) with my sister. Enjoyed playing with them sooo much!

26:23 was my dads LEGO set. He gave it to me a long time ago. Unfortunately, it’s in terrible condition but I’m trying to fix it

I love your videos

Ok the 2005 police station is one of the best city sets and I’m so glad I kept it built

Hour and a half looking an old LEGO sets... and man I'm full of nostalgia. Thank you for this! :) 80's was my childhood. What I've got then and remember are: 6627, 6365, 6382, 6680, 6362, 6608, 6374 (one of my best memories to this...), 6384 (and this...), 6695, 6380, 6349. Always wanted that damn black truck with helicopter, but never got one (6357)! :D

ah yes, one of my fav themes. My first 3 sets ( i got them all together as a gift) were from this theme from 2008 and 2009 themes

Some of these 2007-2014 sets bring back a ton of memories.

Hey I love your vids

Me looking at 49:27 the wheels from lego city 7903 helicopter: **Lego Racers Tiny Turbos flashbacks**

Look at them cute little old lego smiles :D

Prachtig, ik ben zelf gek op Lego vanaf de eind jaren 70 tot nu. Ben zelf van 1973 en speel er nu nog mee, tevens ook onze zoon van 15 is er volop mee bezig ❤️❤️👍👍👌👌

47:06 my first set, the police bike and the police car after were my 2nd and 3rd ones respectively. I was only 5. Good times!

I was not expecting to feel nostalgic.

The old sets have charm to them they bring me nostalgia

6541 and 6542 were the two sets I always wanted more than anything when I was a kid.

I bought some lego city in 2018 out of nostalgia. But now Im well and truly done with the line. Theres just way too much awesome licensed sets they make.
