Lego Technic does have the stuff to make really cool stuff. Anyone else notice the diff? Technic didn't used to have a fully functional differential when I had Legos.

Yeah, I was wondering about the diff and a couple of other parts, specifically if there was any fabrication needed. Awesome either way.

This only backs up my long standing claim that Legos are the best toy(s) ever. Personally, I spent waaaay more time with them than anything else in my youth.

Along similar lines, you guys should take a look at LEGO pneumatic engines. Makes an awesome stress ball or paperweight for the office.

<- still plays with LEGO. Living room has a whole collection in various states of assembly. LEGO Stig hangs off my key chain. As I have stated before, modern LEGO is blah and doesn't leave much to the imagination.

Same here. But these days I just build the creator sets. I have 2 cars, a rescue chopper and a blue sport bike sitting on top of the entertainment center. Considering buying and building the carousel for mothersday.
