lego-walkie-talkie

I played with LEGOs a lot when I was a kid.  Ah memories.  Anyway, the techie youngsters nowadays get to have LEGO cameras and LEGO walkie-talkies.  Should I be jealous?

But some kids out there might think that LEGOs are lame.  I would probably not get along with these kids.  But whatever.  Maybe they’re more into mastering The Force, like in Star Wars.  For these kids, there’s the Force Trainer.

star-wars-force-toy

The user wears a headset that uses brain waves to manipulate a ball within a clear tube.  The more you focus, the higher the ball will rise.

Someone better tell Luke Skywalker that he’s gonna have some competition soon.

I refuse to throw away my old box of Legos! Not only are they handy when we have younger visitors, but I always thought one day I’d like to build a gigantic lego… something. Like a dude or a house or something else big. :)

@ Kathy- Hahahah, nah. You know those little kit things with the instructions? They totally take the fun out of it, but meh. Maybe I was the lame one hahaha.

Kathy you and Tabby would probably love the amazing techy-ness of something called the Emotiv-Epoch helmet, the website is emotiv.com . It’s like the force trainer but for a computer, you can actually manipulate things with it online (when it finally comes out for public use).

Lego is awesome, my brother and I used to build little villages with it. The imagination can go to great lengths with a humongous tub of lego! Love it, miss it, want to be a kiddy again!

love legos, although i remember getting annoyed about the lego characters not being able to move their limbs apart because i wanted them to ride the horse properly.

and wow toys these days, someday kids will be picking up their pencils with the force.

Ohhh Legos. Good times. I still break them out on occasion when I have an excuse… like babysitting kids. Which isn’t often enough. My older brother and I built spaceships. Mine was always cooler. Maybe that’s why we always ended up in a Lego and Beanie Baby war and my ship always got broken. =/
