I just had another of my most common (and most tortuous) Lego dreams last
night.

I walked into my local consignment shop (which supplies me with around 80%
of all the Lego I purchase) and they had a huge selection of old sets that
I'd never seen before!  Huge monorail layouts, pirate ships still in the
box, castles, all dusty but in great shape and at great prices!  I'm so
obsessed with this darned hobby I can even dream up totally convincing
Golden Age box art!  I hate waking up from these!

What's your most common Lego dream?

(...) Yep, sounds identical to my LEGO dreams (or you could say, nightmares). Those yellow LEGOLAND boxes... *sigh* -Bryan (20 years ago, 12-Nov-04, to lugnet.general)

(...) I have also had those dreams of finding a treasure trove of parts. Especially when I was collecting red bricks for my huge red brick house. Numerous times, I would dream that I would go up to my attic and find a box of old Lego bricks left by (...) (19 years ago, 18-Nov-04, to lugnet.general)

(...) I recently had a similar dream. I was in some store, and their LEGO aisle was stuffed with sets that were 10 or more years old. Some of them were ones I'd never seen before (obviously some figment of my unconscience mind). Plus they were all (...) (19 years ago, 19-Nov-04, to lugnet.general)

(...) Hi Dave, I dream about LEGO from time to time too, sometimes I wake up and hate it when I realise it wasn't true :( The most common LEGO dreams I have are 'I am somewhere in a place I have no idea in the real world but seem to know in my (...) (19 years ago, 28-Nov-04, to lugnet.general)
