That officily sucks!  Now only if I had any classic space sets from my
childhood...  I have obtained 100% of my pre-1992 models in the past year
and now have 2 and 1/2 classic space sets, ;-) I soooooooo wish I had more...

Oh, and you can contribute to the  "Kyle has hardly any classic space sets"
fund by emailing me at kyle@kylkeppler.com ;-P

So tonight I pulled out my big box of LEGO from my wee days.
Most of my collection was classic space, and I probably
have about 50% of the sets from '78 to '83 say.  So I
figured I should have no problem coming up with some
entries that are made entirely from original classic
space LEGO.

I sat down to wash the pieces as they've been in a basement
for the past 10-15 years or so, and are pretty filthy.  As
I was sorting to wash them by colour, I noticed that I
didn't seem to have very many grey pieces.  Odd since
most of it should be early classic space.  So I counted
the wings.  I have 2.  WHAT THE?!?!?

It seems I am missing almost all of my grey pieces!  I
must have missed them in my parents' basement somehow
when I picked up the LEGO last Xmas.  And the real
problem is they're an 18 hour drive away.  Nuts!!

The only thing I have complete here with me is a Galaxy
Explorer.  Hehe, maybe I'll just build a ton of models
with that set (it's big enough!) and submit the original
as an alternate.  It's either that or CAD...

Phooey,
KDJ

Grey LEGO" fund to:
