Heck yes!!! But more like Blacktron I than Blacktron II.
I had been building with Lego since 1979 when I was 5, but it was when
Blacktron came out that I was really hooked, and Lego turned from a hobby
into an obsession. I never really had a Dark Age, but it was Blacktron II
that really prevented it. When I saw those sets I no longer cared what the
other people in the dorm thought about me, I had to build!!! =)
I will say one good thing about the overall junkiness of Lego sets today:
it's giving me the opportunity to spend my money on better, older sets.
Last week I got my first Mega Core Magenetizer. Lego, that's money that
people on eBay are getting instead of you. But wow, thanks for the
opportunity. This set is great, and I may never have bought one if I was
buying new sets instead.

One reason 90-piece System sets are still ten bucks (the same price as in the 70s and 80s....Lego deserves (...) (24 years ago, 14-Mar-01, to lugnet.dear-lego)
