- jacquesm 9y agoIf you're ok with second hand stuff I can probably help you out.

- Cthulhu_ 9y agoLook into Lego Technic, it's lego but with a mostly different set of connectors and mechanics.
- DCoder 9y agoJust keep in mind that Technic design is substantially different from regular Lego design, and even the main "bricks" (liftarms) have slightly different dimensions than System ones. Connecting Technic with System is an art in itself - for example, the recent Porsche 911 [0] drew a lot of criticism for its design, whereas the upcoming Mack Anthem [1] is much more appealing.

- technomalogical 9y agoMy nephew has been making Transformers out of his LEGO sets for a few months now. I asked him how many hinges he had (thinking he must have a lot). He said "I dunno... 2?" I went to the LEGO store and raided their pick a brick wall. He'll be getting lots pieces that are hinged, wings for transforming planes, and tons of small plates for decoration. I think he's going to like it.
- technomalogical 9y agoLEGO has increasingly made a number of pieces with Studs Not On Top (or SNOT, as the adult LEGO community refers to them). These allow you to attach standard bricks in a number of different directions and angles.
