I have two things to say:
1. hold on to all of your lego, you will regret it if you don't. You will
hit an age when you don't feel 'embarrassed' about it.
2. best of luck

Johnathan and everybody else are absolutely right, Sergio.  When I was young,
my mom did a very wise thing: she made me promise never to get rid of my
LEGO.  Of course, *she* thought it was because I'd be passing it on to my
kids someday.

I know the idea of kids is far off for you, but take my mom's advice. Even if
you never get back into LEGO again, there will come a day when someone you
care about is of an age to enjoy it - and you'll have it there to pass it on to
them.

Or, if you're like many of us, you'll have it there to play with yourself. >;)

(...) I have to agree with this whole-heartedly.. My entire lego collection from when I was a kid ended up being sold off as part of one of our yard sales for a measly $5.. That's right, the entire lot, hundreds of dollars worth of classic space (...)
