I had an Erector set, a set of Lincoln Logs, and Legos. I still had my Legos when I got married and both kids got some so now we have huge totes of Legos waiting for grandkids to appear! Erectors and logs all long gone.

One thing about the Erectors. Growing up in the '70's my sister and I had some action figures like GI Joe, but different. One guy's legs got broken off, so taking a queue from the Bionic Man TV show, I used Erector technology and built him new legs! LOL

LOL, love the bionic man story. Our kids played with April O'Neil from the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles franchise so much that her joints loosened and she didn't have a leg to stand on. We braced her with old coat hanger pieces that stiffened her up but we knew she would never make it past airport security again.
