This may be CDS (Compartment Dork Syndrome) but here goes...
My family has just returned from up north and they brought back...a huge tub
of LEGO®!!! Actually they had gotten it from an aunt who had stored them for
7-8 years. Upon going through the collection of pieces, I found quite a few
that were yellowed and beaten up pretty bad. However, after close
examination it was revealed that all the crappy bricks were...gasp...Tyco
blocks! I was relieved, because it was the LEGO® that had stood the test of
time (mint condition). I had always wanted to watch clone bricks melt and
burn, but didn't want to spend my precious money on these pieces of crap.
Thanks to my aunt, I'm 4000-5000 pieces richer AND I get to torch the
competition!
Does anyone have similar experiences to share with the LUGNET community? -Harvey
