r/VintageLEGO

This space Lego set from 1985 I feel is only on the cusp of vintage. But it is probably the last Lego set I was given as a child. By then I had largely grown past that stage of childhood, and had entered the world of home computers.

I remember using the parts to build a Firefox aeroplane, based on the artwork on the book.

Missing a page but not bad for 48 years old

Can’t find the original crystals for the rayguns but otherwise mostly the correct parts

I recently got my hand on the playing board from the 1960s lego system town roadway set #810 its in very solid condition to say its over 60 years old and am wondering if anyone would be interested in buying, im open to discuss a fair price, while its a fine piece of kits i dont really collect vintage lego and dont want this fine bit of lego history to just be stored away collecting dust, if anyones interested please reply to this or reach out to me on my vinted as thats where id prefere to make the sale, my username is @oburley2608 and the item is listed at 100£ but im ofc happy to lower that

Found these old manuals, they were my dads, just looking for some information on them, I’m pretty sure I have pieces of these sets spread among many boxes

Thrifted this beauty of a set today, just as things couldn't get any better, my worst nightmare of collecting vintage bricks appear right in front of my eye,and it happened on clear bricks too with such big stickers. What should I do to restore this two piece? Any advice is welcomed, or it's to big of a risk to do it and I should just let it be? I have no experience facing this kind of problems before. Ps. The placement of stickers on the hallway is wrong too, I can imagine the previous owner got this when his/her is still very young.

I picked up both of these guys from different places this week. I'm just getting back into Lego now that my 5yo has taken an interest.

Both have a couple of pieces that have been substituted and a couple of the figs are not quite the same, but close enough to play with.

With a few other old sets and another couple of recent pickups, it won't be long before we can set up a little world to play with together.
