Harry Potter: Hogwarts Express (4708) from LEGO Systems, Inc.
This is the second hardest to find and second most expensive Harry Potter Lego set! With the popularity of the movie/book, Harry Potter is a hit, ergo, this set is hard to find and sold out within days once it is restocked in shelves! One day there were 4 of these sets at my local Toyrus, the next,...
LEGO Harry Potter: Chamber Of Secrets (4730) from LEGO Systems, Inc.
Yea, kinda weird, but hey, I love Legos, from the original to the giant Darth Maul I've done 'em all (or at least most of them) this Harry Potter and the Chamber of the Secrets is well worth the money. Plus this set has over 630 pieces (which might not be to much to all of you Lego maniacs)would...
Unfortunately, some parts of the ship are a bit fragile when first put together (although once the ship is completed it's quite sturdy) so...
LEGO Bulk Tub (3099) from LEGO Systems, Inc.
Hours of fun for the little ones, although I find the pieces a little smaller than I like (my son proves the size by carrying a piece around in his mouth), I believe it's worth the investment for someone that won't mind stepping on lingering hard plastic from time to time.
LEGO MINDSTORMS: Robotics Invention System 2.0 from LEGO Systems, Inc.
I am simply amazed at the versatility of this "toy." Out of the package I would have loved this as a kid since it doesn't require a degree to get started. Yet, a high school diploma and college degree since the last time I played with Legos, I can download advanced programming environments and build...
Star Wars Episode II Attack Of The Clones: Bounty Hunter Pursuit (7133) from LEGO Systems, Inc.
At first I wasn't sure about how this set would fit into the rest of my Star Wars lego ships, etc. but it is a lot of fun. There are two bags of lego pieces in the box, one for Zam's ship and the other for Obi-Wan and Annikan. With the bag for Zam you have a minifig of her with a reversible head,...
LEGO Bionicle: Cahdok & Gahdok (8558) from LEGO Systems, Inc.
These two toys have proved to be a pretty solid hit in our household. They are challenging to build -- over two hours for our 10-year old who is pretty good now at following the instructions without help. Because of the construction materials, they won't fall apart easily; nonetheless, I marked them...
Star Wars Episode II Attack of the Clones: Jedi Starfighter (7143) from LEGO Systems, Inc.
I love this toy! The only problems are that when you put Obi-wan in or the canopy on you have to be careful, if you aren't the landing gear will shut and the ship will collapse. The only other problem is you have to learn how to get out of the habit of holding it by the wings, they will fall off if...
