Lego in General Reviews

Lego at its most basic consists of brightly coloured building blocks which snap together to form reasonably strong walls or other constructions. When I was a child, in the 1960s, there was not much more to it, and although I had a few pieces of Lego furniture, it didn't hold my interest for long. I can remember my brothers building cars and ...  Read the complete review

Lego Mindstorms Robotics Invention System 2.0 ~ Introduction ~ I could not find a link for Robotics Invention System 2.0 so I decided to put it under the category "Lego" as it seems the sensible thing to do rather than going through the bother of suggesting it to Dooyoo. I have decided to ...  Read the complete review

Stuck for a pressie to buy a child?. Why not buy some Lego/Duplo. If a child already has a set it doeasn't matter more lego will compliment it.

In 1949 plastic bricks were produced the forerunner of Lego and in 1954, (the year I was born) the ...  Read the complete review

Lego is simply the best, long lasting and value for money toy you can buy. It was voted toy of the century in a recent poll (Fortune magazine and the British Association of Toy Retailers). I remember playing with it when I was growing up and my kids love it today. You can buy Lego for any age of child from about 6 months (baby size ...  Read the complete review

I vividly remember my eleventh birthday. It fell on a Monday and I was allowed to open my main birthday present on the Sunday so that I would have a chance to play with it. It was a Lego set! Now the younger ones amongst you will not know what I mean by this as things have changed dramatically over the years. When I had my first ...  Read the complete review

When I was a child, I loved Lego. I had a huge tupperware box full of the stuff. My speciality was making houses on those green bases. I made loads, then displayed them in my room until it was time to dismantle them and start again. I had some signs that said things like KIOSK, HOTEL and HOSPITAL, but basically, it was just the normal ...  Read the complete review

I remember the days when building blocks were made of wood. Stack them up and knock them down, and believe me, there are only so many ways different ways that you can do that. Then in 1932 along came a Danish carpenter called Ole Kirk Christiansen. His firm manufactured stepladders, ironing boards and wooden toys. Thinking no doubt that there must ...  Read the complete review

Way back then, in the Swinging '60s, all you got was a stinking house ... it was a very nice house, mind, a lovely multi coloured vision, all red, white and blue (how extremely patriotic, old fruit), but still just a house, and a roofless one at that, unless of course you had those very uncool green roof tiles, but who on earth bothered with ...  Read the complete review

A good supply of Lego is necessary if you want your child to build a world which sprawls across their bedroom floor. The downside is, Lego is, and always has been quite expensive, so you have to know the best way to maximise the 'bang' for your Lego 'buck'. While some of the new sets are great - especially the Star Wars ...  Read the complete review

Ahh, how I long for the carefree days of my childhood, where I sat on the living room floor playing lego, occupied and content! Lego is definitely one of the best toys in the whole world. It's colourful, coming in yellow, blue, red, pink, white and black coloured blocks, and it's durable. You'll never break a lego brick, not ...  Read the complete review

Well what can you say? Its enjoyable, exciting and very educational. Lego basically does it all. It is limitless, well limited to your imagination anyway and for many people especially children imagination is endless. You can basically make anything you want really. All you need are a few different sized and coloured bricks ...  Read the complete review

I can remember wen we were little we got a bucket full of Lego to play with. It was great fun building your aeroplanes and houses. It used to keep us entertained for hours. It was such great fun, when we used to build something my mum used to put it on the mantle piece until we decided what we were going to build next. I ...  Read the complete review

When I was young Lego was ALWAYS my favourite toy, I never stopped playing with it and it was the only thing I spent my money on. I remember the excitement when the new catalogue came out and I planned what to buy and even in what order. Luckily for me my older brothers used to play with Lego so I had a huge ammount when I got into it, and I mean ...  Read the complete review

Lego has got to be the best toy ever invented. I do, of course, include Duplo in this statement. I played with Lego as a child (about 25 years ago) and my parents still have it all and it is enjoyed by my children. When I had Lego the imagination ran riot. I had roads and built towns, I had a castle and had battles and I had basic bricks ...  Read the complete review

All right, so I may be a university student but I feel I would never have got to where I am now without lego. Though the days of sitting beside the bed, tipping out the huge box of lego and looking for the particular block, may be over, I still think that a lot of my education is thanks to the educating, imaginative play that lego stimulates in ...  Read the complete review

Lego is one toy I remember from my childhood, and regret that I can`t find any reasonable excuse to dig it out and play with it now :-). It is just a load of bricks that you stick together, but it is also much more than that. To appreciate lego properly you need to ignore the new lego coming out with lots of special "one off" ...  Read the complete review

Lego is a timeless classic. It comes in sets that can suit all tastes. There are larger Duplo bricks suited to younger children. The classic primary coloured bricks, often available in huge bargain sets, are able to appeal to anyone old enough not to swallow the bricks. Then the advanced electronic and technical sets take Lego right ...  Read the complete review

I played with Lego all of my childhood. In fact, It still had an attraction to me as I got a bit older! Its just a great fun toy that has an educational value too. It teaches children to build things, be creative and even count. I had various sets as a child. I think one of my first sets was a Shell petrol Station. The pieces were very ...  Read the complete review
