Last time the parts are generic and very easy to spot . Now there are too many specialised parts and the size are getting smaller and smaller. Even though the parts:price ratio doesn't change much compared to 20 years ago, LEGO company actually cram alot of tiny 1x1 round parts into their sets making it felt like "wow .. so many part for rm100! worth the price." .

When I opened new set to play around... I ALWAYS mix all the parts together despite instructions warning us not to do so.  I love finding parts during assembly coz it prolong my enjoyment . And it enhances our hand-eye coordination skill too. smile.gif

Last time to assemble a vehicle, it gives a lot of enjoyment because you build using tiny tiny pieces up to the whole thing is done. For example, Lego 6594 Octan truck, it seriously enjoy! because you build the chassis, the axle and stuff... later on after a few years, I bought a set where it just gives me the whole bottom chassis that is manufactured into one single block, and I was like "What the.... how come so simple one?"

Yup... I miss the moment u found a brick when u thought it is lost... And u was so happy when u figured out it is hiding in the bricks!
P/s: i dont like to arrange the bricks according to colors or size.. How many of u actually do this? smile.gif

Its seriously in the most exciting mood when you found it.. and when you accidentally lost it, then you will seriously have big headache trying to scan through the floor, under the carpet, behind the door wondering where was the freaking piece...

the good thing is u can always just dump them all together.

many user still need numbered esp younger kids for easier build cos they want to play with the final toy quickly

You can open all the packs and mix all together in a bundle icon_rolleyes.gif But for Technic, I can't do that with 1000+ pieces, and most of it are like 1x1 or smaller rclxub.gif I sort it out, for tiny pieces into 10x compartments. Small ones 5x compartments. For normal size ones, into 2-3x buckets.

Just nearly thought my packs are missing 1 piece, until I re-read the whole instructions and found out I used a wrong piece earlier sweat.gif

Can't remember, i guess i bought at the highest end of the price. But its definately a must buy for AFOL because of the scale and  detailness. It good for display  biggrin.gif

It's an impressive display. Nicely detailed. I managed to convince my sis to buy one for her house! wink.gif

QUOTE(hades4eve @ Mar 28 2013, 09:09 AM)
For the fun to assemble, to display, got the "wow" factor?  unsure.gif  laugh.gif

I'd go for the Death Star for the wow factor! It is fun to play with also. The UCS B-Wing will also make a very nice display too! wink.gif

Yeah. I preferred the 'old days' where everything is just dumped in one bag. More fun to be searching through the pile of bricks for the one elusive piece... smile.gif

The new numbered bags and instructions are so easy even my 4yrs old daughter can build Modular Buildings! Lol!
