I love bridges. If I see a cool looking bridge, I want to cross it, especially if it goes somewhere that I'm not familiar with. Same with stairs outdoors. They feel like an adventure to me.

My children are old enough for Lego now.

I'm more excited for their Lego christmas gifts then they will be!

I treated myself to one of the NASA sets last year for Christmas. Sat down with my best friend and we built the moon lander. It was great.

Treat yo'self

That's awesome! I just bought two of the Christmas village ones to start a new tradition with my family building it each year

[-] khannie@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

Nice! That sounds like a great tradition. Might yoink it for ourselves.

I'm always looking for creative "traditions" to start with my wife and kids. Have fun!

The moon lander is great. It's my favorite set. I also have the ISS and Thanos's infinity gauntlet. But the lander was crazy fun to build

[-] khannie@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

Yeah it was a good one :)

I LOVE Lego! Have you seen that awesome Batman shadowbox set? It's stupidly expensive, but cool as fuck. I want it, but I just can't bring myself to drop $400 on Lego.

I thought about it, but I already have the batwing & 1989 batmobile. I'm not really that big of a Batman fan, so I think my collection on those might be complete.
