50 years of LEGO bricks

Happy birthday LEGO bricks. It's amazing these seemingly simple bricks inspire imaginations of so many kids around the world. I was a big fan.

Of all the sets I owned, I loved my Galaxy Explorer (497) the most, along side the Space Cruiser (487). Next would have to be the helicopter (8844) which I also put in my electric motor (870) for the rotor.



I am surprised that the timeline poster got it wrong. Every LEGO fan knows 6080 (which I loved and only dismantled a few years ago) wasn't the first castle set. The first castle set was 375, the yellow castle with a red draw bridge and horses built with lego bricks (which I also owned and loved).
