Remember those little plastic rods that snapped together with a motor, and then you had something like a dinosaur that walked along the table 6 inches and then fell over? Yeah, them. I loved them... Although, like with Lego, being creative led to failure. I made a butterfly once. Its wings didn't flap or nothin'. That was a wasted half hour. crying

Yay k'nex. It would supprise me if they have banned it due to a kid choking on the small bits. Anyway, i remember collecting all the models you could get from the weetabix promotion, putting them all together in one big model, then getting bored with it and selling it all. xd

I loved K'nex.
I remember sitting down for 6 hrs, and made the roller coaster... I think it was like 3 ft long, 2 ft high, or something crazy like that. and it actually worked. You cranked the lil car up to the big drop then it would roll all around it back to the bottom of the big drop. I was all excited, we took pics and everything... Then as soon as noone was in the room My lil' bro decided to ruin it... PISSED ME OFF!!! I remember him standing their laughing, And I went and punched him right in the face, gave him a bloody nose. He never messed with my K'nex again, lol

They don't make them anymore in metal like the ones I had. They were metal when my dad was little, so he kept them and gave them to my older brother and I. We make a ferris wheel once. and a crane too!
