The lego people are the best knowen toys that i've ever played with, they were toys that made my childhood a worthy experience. Lego duplex was made in 1977, the same time that award winning movies like Star wars and Pete's dragon were made. The Lego people came as a family. From there they date back with several memories. In their own ways they made Lego history. The house living room was knowen as Legoland.

Playing with the Lego People would vary in many ways. They would stand out in the rain waiting for lightning or get played until they were abused, yet they still lived on.

The Legos villan was Tinkerman, Prominance and Trucrane were  imaginary. Until 1993

I'd always bring the Lego People with several lego blocks to Aunt Mary's. When i stopped bringing Lego blocks then i'd bring the Lego people, Though Todd, Andy, Laura and Cousin Jon were too old to play with legos i still had several adventures. The Legos

were full of imagination. When we still had large wooden blocks, i would have them drive cars over the wooden blocks. I would also have extensive time to pit Alex's tiger Felepe against the Legos. Tinkerman's brother was Tonkerman. Later in life came Legoboy, Legogirl and Jeepy and the Lego helpers. They were also fun to play with, Legodog came with the Lego people. There were times of complete terror. For quite a while i lost Legored in the ivy and then found him a few months later. Legos were popular in the seventies and eighties. Yet they were also used in "Honey i shrunk the kids". Legos are almost impossible to find when they get lost. There were several times when i would lose the Lego people. The legos were so enjoyable that i let them watch me eat my lunch. At times i'd even talk to them. There were several ways to play with the legos, i have them fly planes, drive cars very fast around the house (It would scratch the floor so this was only done once in a while). I also used to play with them in the bathtub. They would stand on my stomach, chest, legs and even near my crotch.

While i made Tinkerman fight the legos, i was videotaped. In one instanse i think i even had Legored or Legoblue pretend he was throwen into the Videocamera lens. To dad it was not polite but it was a bit funny. (At horse shoe curve Alex made several strange appearences and he would stick his tounge out and make stange faces while Dad was taping the trains. I always took the legos where ever i went. To grandma's, Aunt Mary's

and just about every where we went. The fights between Tinkerman were awsome, they'ed take hostages without mersey, they'ed fight with Tinkerman and Tonkerman.

Other challenges in life were when the Legos raced around the living room carpet challeging eachother to win and this was done with Tinkerman too. I'd like to make a note that Legos and Tinkertoys were the toys i loved most!  There were times i lost tinkertoys too. Some i never saw again. They are still probably buried in the ivy.

There are several places in the world where there are even lego parks. The lego factory has a huge giraffe with a younger one eating leaves and they are made with over 50,000 lego blocks. Legos are the perfect toy for children. Late and in mid time in my life came Grandma Legored and Father Legoblue and then Legobird. Legobird would fly the friendley skies. Even adults play with them too. There are also huge sculptures that people made with legos. Tinkertoys were also fun to play with. At certain points you can connect with legos. I pretend the blue bucket that the tinkertoys came in  were Tinkerman's evil flying Labratory and factory. At times i'd pretend it goes out of control. When i got older i stopped playing with the legos and bought a recorder. I audiotaped all my lego adventures and trips. The first tapes were with Prominance and Trucrane. Then i introduced the evil Tinkerman. Tinkerman had several evil plotts His plotts were Kidnapping the president of the united states, blowing up the world with nuclear weapons, Robbing banks and vaults and kidnapping the mayor after escaping the hurricane and the legoland police. The legos fly a plane up through the eye of the hurricane and make it without any probilim.

The legos are terrific heros in many ways, they foil robberies and negotiate in hostage crisis. They would always fight the evil tinkerman. The legos would always fight crime and protect Legoland, either the legoland in my story or the living room at home. The legos did what no other person could do when the do good. My most well knowen story is "Poisoned" It's about the legos when they drink chocolate milk, Prominance and Trucrane switch the milk with poison and the legos get terribly sick. They fall in the hands of Legoboy, Jeepy and Legogirl which encounter Prominance who shoot them out but manage to escape before getting killed. They go to Legolady's friend DR. Blite (name of super villan on Captian Planet) but he is a good guy on the Lego people. Legoboy, Legogirl and Jeepy try to find a cure for the legos to save them from the poison but they get captured by Prominance and Trucrane which tie them up and feed them to robotic sharks. Meanwhile the legos wake up and drive after them. (It's a miracle they got better so quickley and tried to find them, they're still supposed to be poisoned!!!)

They moast likeley find the antidote prepared just before DR blite and the others get kidnapped. Then they go after them, only to be caught in a huge traffic jam and an empty tank of gas. Not to mention that Legored asks for a ride in a taxi Bruce Willis style.
