Old toys

i was just looking back at some old toys i used to have (legos, gi-joe shit) and then i looked at the lego website now.
and holy shit have they advanced. when i was little, you could pretty much connect 2 bricks to make a wall, and that was it. now they're making like, cities, planes, and all that stuff. if i was younger now, i probably couldn't even figure out how to build all of them.

well, i was too, but my own stuff, now everythings a set, no creativity left in it, if you want something, chances are they have a set for it.

i used to make like, planes, cruise ships, and whole towns and stuff, but i created it all with spare pieces, not sets.

legos are so sick. I had so many of them. I made so many cities and stuff. Micro machines were dope too.

i used to have so many micro machines, i had these giant war zones spreading across my entire room, with aircraft carriers, submarines, bases, and just huge battlefield areas. they were so much fun, now they'd probably be called "violent toys"

i know what you mean, anything that has a barrel on it is considered violent.  Parents are so edgy about shit like that. When i was a kid i was given a pellit gun and told if i shoot myself its my fault so dont come crying to them

i would have these epic battles between the micro machine good guys (regular camo) and the bad guys (dark camo with skull and cross bones on it) that would go on for days. naturally the "good" guys would get all the cool shit and the bad guys would get nothing. man, i had so many good hours playing with those things.
