 | | Do you separate old vs. new LEGO?
|
|
I was wondering about this yesterday. I try to keep all of my new and almost new LEGO separated from the old well played LEGO. Why? Probably because I don't like to build something new, and then find that a few pieces really stand out because they (...) (27 years ago, 13-May-99, to lugnet.build)
