All I want for Christmas is a "Promotion"..

speaking of constructing/assembling I have fond memories of getting a "MECANO 2(tm)" construction set when I was a wee lad. It was great fun. Hmmm, do they still make them? or is 'Lego blocks' the only option in kid construction kits nowadays?

Cheers!

I don't remember anything called Mecano 2, but back in my days, we just had the plain jane lego blocks where you had to use your imagination in making things. Now you can buy all of these pre-made stuff like anything from Star Wars or Harry Potter. That doesn't take any amount of imagination, and I will try not to buy those for my kid. I had great fun with those blocks, and I hope he will to.

Also, there was Lincoln Logs. Those were fun too, and I'm glad to see they're making a come back. And then there was Erector Set. I don't think they make that anymore, but there are a lot of imitators out there with a similar theme.

Narf, I really think you should lay off the cheese. I have no idea what half of your Posts mean.

Actually I think Narf may be immortal, if not immortal, then at the very least sureal. Most definately a popular posting patron of these forums.

Cheers!

P.S. Narf, the only way you are allowed to die in these forums is if you die laughing. But ROTFLMAO is more fun
