So many fond memories with this set. I mustve assembled and disassembled it dozens of times from elementary school to college.
But most of all it fed my own inventions and experimentation with parts. I knew them almost all by heart.
I think the coolest build it fed were the 6 or 7 generations of crash test cars I built to “study” how car crashes work and how to build a car that’s safe. The satisfaction you get from building a crash car to the latest design from memory then smash it into the wall from across the living room. Man that was fun.
One day I tried a rollover test and the custom wheel hub pieces broke. Now I can never rebuild the 8880 set again … sad
I wonder if the new Bugatti build comes close to the awesomeness of the 8880? Been thinking of getting that to relive some fond memories
