Ed Mack Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Sometimes I miss the days where Lego people all had that simple smiling face. Those were more civilized times... before the dark times... before the empire.If you really think about what you just wrote, in the days of the basic mini figure, people used to care more about the bricks in a LEGO set. Now, they care more about what minifigures are in each set. Sent from my iPhone using Brickpicker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Celes Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 I'm still impressed not a single person died in the GIJOE cartoons when I was a kid. The pilot or driver was always able to bail out before the missile arrived....fast sons of guns. What? Really? On topic: compare Lego Chima vs Fabuland, nuff said.

Celes Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Please someone write an extensive blog comparing Chima and Fabuland Probably it wasn't the best example, but you have to admit that Lego took a new approach to the market, which is normal, it had to evolve for today's standards.

TheViralSmile Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Can't say for sure that LEGO's are the tool of Satan ... but they are definitely the "enemy" of my bank account!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kangotti Posted April 2, 2014 Author Share Posted April 2, 2014 Wow, over 3 pages of comment's. That blows my mind. A lot of good discussion going on too. Thou some of you like to generalize people and put them in a box. I try very hard to teach my girls not to generalize people, but to get to know them before making having an opinion about them. Just because A person is (insert group here), does not mean they do or believe (insert activity here), and even if they do, so what. If you want to be there friend, then be true to yourself and be their friend. Just don't force your opinion on them, and don't let them force their's on you. Be true to yourself. And yes I have bad grammar and spelling, I have dysgraphia, so deal with it, lol cause I have to too. Am I forcing you to deal with something, (my bad) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheOrcKing Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 Lego considered a tool of Satan? Anyone else notice the article used a Lego minifigure in front of a pile of old Mega Bloks? Well there's the problem; they're looking at the wrong brand for starters. Ha. Please, what a bunch of tripe on April 1st no less. This last bit here questions the sanity of anything the priest says honestly. Father Kostrzewa's attack on Lego is not the first time he has accused toys of harbouring evil. Hello Kitty and My Little Pony have also come under his scrutiny, with the latter being described as a "carrier of death".Wait, My Little Pony a "carrier of death"? ....Really? Maybe if I were to die from 'over cuteness'. Then again with parts like this, perhaps there is something to his statement? ....Naw. He's just a fruitloop with probably too much internet time on his hands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevenplays Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 I agree somewhat, but also disagree somewhat. Sometimes parents should discipline their children and show they what's right and tell them what they did wrong. Other times, parents should just let it happen. Now if you don't want your kid to watch certain TV shows, play with certain toys, read certain books, ect, be a parent and take that away or don't buy them. What I mainly disagree with is that, while you may have been more quiet, some people are just naturally calm, happy, angry, rough, ect, not saying if doesn't have an effect, but every person is different, on a mental and physiopathic level. My point being, is that I was also never rough as a kid with my toys, and that's because my parents taught me to be careful with them, and I listened, simply because if I didn't, it broke and I didn't automatically get a new one! I had some pretty violent toys looking back, quite a few dinosaurs and Star Wars blasters (shaped like guns really) but I always played out a peaceful senario, it's what you DO with a toy is what makes it violent, not the toy making you violent. What I do agree with is that the figures appear more violent, but who's really at fault here? In America, any type of violence is allowed to be shown to any kid and that's 'okay'. The slightest bit of 'nudity'? BAN BAN BAN. Complete opposite in Europe, and while not either is correct, neither are both wrong, to an extent.

Ya, when we lived over seas, my wife would always cover my eyes, while other wives would point it out. I learned to walk very well with hands over my eyes.

naf Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 If you really think about what you just wrote, in the days of the basic mini figure, people used to care more about the bricks in a LEGO set. Now, they care more about what minifigures are in each set. Sent from my iPhone using Brickpicker During my classic space days, this was definitely the case. There were exactly 5 types of minifigs: white, red, yellow, black and blue. I was drawn to sets based on the build, the minifigs were just extras. In fact, one year a family member gave me one of the small minifig packs for a birthday present and I was very disappointed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kangotti Posted April 2, 2014 Author Share Posted April 2, 2014 OK, I never had this as a kid, but it would never be a hit today, as there is no mini figure exclusives for flipping. http://youtu.be/3UXrSg0USOM 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
