That was awesome! I can tell you, after working with the gear sets and beginning with the programmable sets (7th grade technology class!) This is one complex machine, and the fact that it uses so many pieces is amazing!

My favorite toy as a kid were legos as well. we had hundreds of thousands of them (quite literally, we used stacking drawers to organize all of them by block type, color, acessories, wheels, etc. etc.) They were also my mom's favorite toy for us as well. She had no problem buying legos and books any other toy though she sort of griped about!

I wanted the motorized Lego sets so bad when they first came out, but I never got them because they were too expensive, and Legos are too expensive as it is.

That was more complex than anything I have ever built out of Legos. The best I have ever done, excluding things built from directions, was an SUV with a driveshaft connected to the front wheels that would spin.

wow, that is really impressive. I wonder how long it took to make it, write the code, test the code, make changes to the code and machine so that it actually works. I have done simplier things with these sets and it took quite a while.

Now I want to see it crank out one car after another, not just one a time.
