Most likely Friday night after work if I can get the 'rents to look after Zioette for me for a bit, if you're up for coming along? The missus will be out on Friday night, so it's ideal sneaky shopping time. Failing that, Sunday?


Both are fine with me. Anna will be here from Saturday, so she'll be coming with us if we go Sunday. She likes Lego*, so it's all good.


*Or she will if she knows what's good for her.

No, really, I'm pretty sure she does.

Holy shit, someone else who had Majorkit toys! I had shitloads of that stuff! Back in the early to mid-80s, my dad used to organise regular booze cruises to Calais and Bologne for his work colleagues - sometimes he'd take me, sometimes not, but he'd always come back with Majorkit toys for me. I used to be crazy for Matchbox cars when I was little, so the Majorkit sets let me easily build little towns to 'drive' my toy cars around.


Yes, they were superb. OUTRAGEOUSLY French, though, when I went over there some years later I was recognizing all the street furniture because of the Majokit stuff.

I had another car set (I forget the name of it) where you joined Hot Wheels-style tracks together with intersection, curve and other pieces along with 2D 'buildings' clipped to the sides. Majokit with the genius idea of the transparent road markings to hold the sidewalks the right distance apart was a fantastic idea. I had a massive fucking city by the end of it.

Quote:
Edit: He used to book most of them through Townsend Thoresen, and as I used to go with him so often, I was a member of their 'Young Captains' club, where you'd get a little stamp in your membership passport everytime you went on one of their ferries. Get enough stamps and you'd get to spend a crossing on the bridge with the ship's captain. Sadly, they had that little accident off the coast of Zebrugge before I ever got enough stamps. Eight of the stamps I did have were from the Herald Of Free Enterprise though!


Very cool. Way back in the day I had a cockpit visit or two before they clamped down on that sort of thing. I have a picture of a very young me standing in the cockpit of a then-brand new B757.

I think I had that - the track was white and slightly bendy, right? And the intersections/curves were hard plastic and possibly green or orange. I think it was a Matchbox product.

That Majokit stuff looks like something First Born would flip for - it's a shame toys aren't as good these days. I mean, you can't even buy micromachines any more.

What was it called? Google searching for "white car track" isn't helping.

I had that stuff too!

Majorkit was miles better though.

Like Meaty says, it was Lego-like in that each set required assembly and you could mix and match parts to make whichever road layout you liked. Road markings like zebra crossings were done via a transparent plastic strip which fit into grooves underneath the pavement pieces, thus providing the perfect set width to your roads. Each pavement piece would have little holes in it for you to peg in roadside furniture, so along with my big Lego box, I also had a big Majorkit box with all my pavements, road markings, building bits and a whole load of peg-in road signs, phone boxes, post boxes, advertising billboards, lamp posts, etc. I used to fucking love all of that stuff.

As Meaty says, it was all very French though, all the roadside bits were little plastic models of the things you'd see on French streets.

So, I'm packing up my house ( :( ) and find my Lego sets and instructions...

I have:
Image (I still have the box for this one).
Image
Image
Image
Image
Image

Lots are in various build states. Set 8880 is complete and in perfect condition. The Millennium Falcon is a complete mess as my cat took a liking to it after I built it and decided to sit on it. Lots. The Star Destroyer is 100% complete. I built it once and completely dismantled it, then rebuilt it, gluing each piece as I went. It's been hung from my bedroom ceiling ever since. Until today! :(

Image
This is still my most favourite Lego build ever.

re: Majokit: They had these weird triangular indentations in the sidewalks in some places, which I later discovered were to allow you to park at a 45 angle to the curb and that's where I should have been putting the parking meters. I also remember when we were in Loches and I realized what that little thing on the traffic light poles was... it's a mini traffic light so if you're stopped at the line you can see the traffic light. What a genius bit of toy design, by the way: you turned the top of the traffic light to rotate a tube with red, yellow and green sections to make the lights change!

Image

Many more wonderful pictures here! I had that Parisian bus!

That is indeed the white car tracks I was referring to, I recognize some of the parts though I don't remember some being that dark a shade of gray. I will have to ask my mother if she remembers what it was called, though a nagging voice in my head (mom?) tells me it was 'Toytown' or something similar.

My friend used to have 8880 in his room. I really wanted it.

I'm not sure I have enough Lego to build a house with, at least not big enough for me. I know I'm short, but still. :(

One day, though, I will have the time, space & money to do just that. It'll put James May's one to shame.

I've had a brilliant idea for a gift that's a custom LEGO set but the fuckers have discontinued the old "make your own kit" service. I might have to just design it by hand and buy the bricks one by one, but it still won't come with instructions. Boo.

Oh. Lego Universe (their MMO which also featured the build your own thing as you could have something you'd made in game sent to you as a kit) closed at about the same time. Having read the review it sounded like the storyline-type bit was great but once that was done it turned into a horrific grind to earn more bricks to start building your own place.

If not: You'll have to buy them all on BrickLink, which takes a lot of studying just to figure out how the crappy interface works.

I made the mistake of going to the Lego site and now I know there's Lego Marvel heroes. I really really want a Lego Iron Man now. :(

He has an itch. Inside his suit.

Real astronauts have something called a valsalva device inside their helmet, which is intended to block their nose so they can do the Valsalva maneuver and equalize their inner ear pressure. However, it's also been used to scratch an itchy eye or face. I wished for such a thing inside my motorcycle helmet many times.

More Lego train awesomeneess:

I think Lego is missing a trick: they should sell proper, accurate licensed models like that and make a killing - this is the nearest I've seen. I'd have loved them when I was a kid, it would have been near-enough the perfect toy for me. Instead I had most of the Micromachines trains:

£3.99 seems a good price for a Lego Star Wars Book with a free minifigure.
