Do you ever think your getting too old for LEGO?

[LEGOFREAK]

In fact, my mother-in-law, who is in her sixties plays with Lego when she visits and she still gets me Lego as presents. How cool is that?

Very Cool
in the family gift exchanges people love to get me in the hat draw. I am the easiest person in the world to buy for.

maybe that would make a great commercial?
if you love someone.. say it in Lego.

Great discussion.
I wanted to add my 2 bits ...
This past weekend our Lego group set up a display at the Local Antique/Collectible Toy show - We had some major castle bits a few Space ships, the big Ferrari and the Maersk Ship on Display.

Everyone stopped to admire, discuss their experience with Lego, or ask how much it would cost to make it - or if they could buy it ... 100's of people.

People of all ages from young kids (2-3) to 50-60 year olds were there talking Lego - and many of them were still playing with Lego.
It was really great to share the hobby that way.

Thousands of LUGNET members can't be wrong

You're only to old to play with Lego when you can't play with anything anymore ... dead.
Remember you could have even wierder hobbies - like collecting Megablocks!:shock:
Have fun, play well

Hehe, good one.

I often spend a while laying on my bed and thinking, what I'm going to do with my LEGO when I leave school. And what if I suddenly feel the urge to stop collecting and playing with LEGO? And realizing that I have grown out of LEGO!

But after reading your guy's responses I see that, it is very difficult to grow out of a toy as great as LEGO if you are a die hard fan of it.

This is very true indeed. Not only that, but even when you think you have "outgrown it", you find out later on (sometimes even years later) that you simply entered a "dark age", and go scrambling to snatch your collection from the closet or attic.

Too old for LEGO…..

Maybe….When you get a serious form of Alzheimer’s disease, so you can’t remember the meaning of the word LEGO anymore.
Or Parkinson’s disease, and you can’t put one brick on another….

But as long as that is not the case,
..Don’t worry and play on…..
