Freightrain Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 (edited) I still have all my toys. Legos, tonka trucks, erector set, lincoln logs, tinker toys. The last Legos I bought were the "expert builder" stuff in late 70s. I got the crane and farm tractor. They were big money in the day. Lots of moving parts and stuff. I found the write up about that R model. It was custom built and not a kit. This Technic kits are NOT cheap. Wowzers, $400-600! Cool none the less Edited March 31, 2022 by Freightrain 1 Quote Larry 1959 B61 Liv'n Large......................

mechohaulic Posted April 1, 2022 Share Posted April 1, 2022 my 6x6 lego was ( have to check wifes not around ) $400.oo . i haven't given upon the excavator . watch you-tube for that . can even buy a light kit . then you can dig at night. LOL lego technics aren't cheap, ones with remote control at least let you do something with them for your money spent. there is a Mack lego . the red one which was a modified is from the kids movie.

Cool none the less Hah- that explains your talents today...No TV, No phone etc etc. I too have my erector sets..I gave them to one of my sons in hopes he would have his son hooked on them-as he and his brother were but no luck. Erector set..a product of the A.C Gilbert Co. of New Haven Conn, who also made American Flyer trains as well as other educational "toys" like chemistry sets. My father was a contractor and he did a fair amount of work in and around their main plant. One day he came home with a product that they were testing but never produced- a building set that featured real hard clay minature bricks- they were cast with two "dimples" on top with corresponding reverse "hollows" on the bottom so the bricks would interlock- Both sons got to enjoy those and the grandkids enjoy them when they come over. I did find something that resembled an erector set this Christmas that I bought for two grandsons but nothing like the original...junk! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
