I looked at the clip and think its fantastic Jonathan! To be honest though it looks like its made from a bit more than lego. How far will it drive a car for before you have to get out and pump it up?
I dont really care what people post about on this forum but people are not going to be interested in everthing put up in the same way that not everyone will be interested in getting ones hands dirty , restoring and driving microcars. Its a free for all really so as long as things didnt seriously gravitate to a subject unconnected to microcars who cares!
Hi Bob,
It IS 100% lego, apart from the plastic bottle that holds the air ( well, I guess air isnt lego either
)
Lego is a lot more technical then in the old days. I have a 60s train set that is really nice and really valuable, but the new lego is more " useable ". I would say though that the 80's had the best sets, because that is when THIS came out:
