    I came in here planning to make a smart-ass remark, but I gotta say, that IS pretty cool.

    That's pretty darned cool. Makes me wish I had the money to pursue the LEGO hobby in a greater capacity.

    Damn.


    I loved Lego when I was a kid. I was pissed when I learned that Mom gave away my BIG box of Lego blocks away. I sometimes like to check out the aisle with Legos at the toy store and think about how much fun I would have had as a kid.

    is it a regional thing? to say Legos

    the plural of Lego is Lego.

    That is neat, but how many of those blocks are specialty blocks?

    Strictly speaking, Lego has no plural. It is a singular noun which names the company. The pieces are "Lego pieces," "Lego bricks," etc. which is shortened (improperly) in common conversation to "Legos," omitting the space and second noun between Lego and the pluralizing "s."

    I was going to piss all over this thread for the use of the word "legos", but fortunately you've found something pretty cool to share, thanks :techman:

    I also found this, which fits in well with the theme of the OP.
