I have had an idea, it remains to be seen how good an idea this is. I want to build every Lego set from 1978 to 1990. These dates are somewhat arbitrary - I was born in 1976 but the first set I really want to build is the classic yellow castle from 1978. However, the first sets I got as a child were 671 and 622 which were 1978 sets.

1990 as an end date probably catches too many themes (eg Blacktron) which I am not that interested in. We shall see if these dates change.

Some rules for this:

• Models will be built individually, photographed and then dismantled. I won't be keeping them constructed.
• Technic is included, but not Duplo, promotional packs, generic brick packs, or certain themes like Fabuland.
• Some models from Ideas books may be built, but not all.
• No train sets, or boats (athough I do like the look of some of the early boats).
• I won't be too fussy about minifigures, or genuine era-appropriate bricks.

I will be purchasing bricks required to supplement my existing brick collection from Bricklink - hopefully the requirement over time will reduce as I have more bricks from earlier models.

Just some placeholder footer text to help with the layout of the page ...
