Definately not on sale.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16862190127021526170noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26662000.post-67197332585959272122008-02-17T18:12:00.000-08:002008-02-17T18:12:00.000-08:00hmmmmmmm that is one thing i have to get for the k...hmmmmmmm that is one thing i have to get for the kids...i though i kept their leggos sets, but apparently i gave them away when we moved to SK:( yeh it is sad how toys are becoming more and more high tech...:(Samhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07746913806972616962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26662000.post-70158307271756175732008-02-17T06:22:00.000-08:002008-02-17T06:22:00.000-08:00I remember having the Lego set with the green base...I remember having the Lego set with the green base in 5th grade I think it was, and doing a science project creating a working windmill with Legos, a little engine discarded from another toy, a lollipop and an elastic band :)<BR/><BR/>Nowadays my brother helps school kids build full blown robots in his free time.
