I used to have a ton too, my mom either threw them away or gave them away while I was away in boot camp. Sucks, I might need to start getting some new ones!

I had a lego train I got for Christmas one year. If I could get any of them back, that would be what I’d want.

I was gonna say, you can buy old sets on ebay and on a bunch of sites. Some sites even have them new in box. When I went to college I sold mine and got about $1500 for my sets on ebay.

Half my room as a kid was a LEGO town. I have so many sets, its crazy. I wish i kept all the directions and pieces together. I build tons of custom shit with all my crap. Pretty sure the train set (first one posted) is still together in my cubby. Lots are together, just shoved in there years ago with layers of dust ☹ SMH
