Top Toys: Lego®



Well, I never had geeky old Meccano as a kid, but cripes did I have Lego® aplenty! It was a quantum improvement over Kenner’s formulaic girder and panel building sets (which were still pretty awesome) that allowed me to build a clunky little town in the basement that my hordes of plastic Airfix soldiers could wage protracted battles over. Doubtless, Ole Kirk Christiansen probably wouldn’t have been impressed…

Update: Following up on the comments, here’s that cool pic of H.R. Giger’s “Alien” rendered in Lego®. I just knew it would come in handy one of these days...
