You can see why I like the 1990s legos so much. It's much more unique and creative compared to what you get today. I don't think anything currently beats its creativity.

Too bad it costs hundreds of dollars to actually make anything nice out of legos.

Yeah now people just use legos to make gay stuff like working printers.

You literally think anything older is better, no matter what it is.

That's not old, who are you trying to kid?

You can tell by the transparent triangle bricks and the newly updated decal. Oh and the window is a dead giveaway because of the greyish silvery color.

It's like the 1990s legos are just default Blockland.

The 2000+ legos are Blockland with various custom bricks enabled.

I agree, the newer Legos suck

the only difference between legos now and then are the colours
