    Erector sets for my generation. They were even more bad ass when you hooked little electric motors to them. Made some cool stuff. Now my son plays with Legos and they are pretty cool but not the same to me.

    I played with Lego's day in and day out. Even found 2 trashbags of lego parts on the side of the road one day. Now I have huge plastic cases full of them for when I have kids. The experience pepared me to be the engineer I am today!
