Anyone bored?

I got amazing garage sale find of something like 40lbs of legos primarily from the early to mid 00s.

mostly Starwars which is killer, but I cant figure out for the life of me what the partial set (or sets) in the foreground are even after some googling...
Id guess Y-Wing initially but doesn’t look like it from looking at the past sets.
any Starwars or LEGO fans on here able to ID it?

i should really dig my bins out. i had some cool shit.

one of my favorites was this kit:

 

[SpeedSpeak2me]

I really need to see where my old original blocks and sets are. Mine are from the 70's and early 80's, so nothing like these fancy new ones.

I recently did all the Apollo stuff. Saturn 5 rocket and lunar lander. I’m more of a space nerd than a lego nerd but it was fun.
The rocket was especially cool because it comes apart in stages like the real thing.

Yeah, when you actually had to use your imagination to build stuff.

Actually asked my mom. They're sitting under a workbench in a box and bag, where they've been for the last 30+ years, untouched. Gonna go look this weekend at what I have stockpiled.

Those 2 are on my wish list along with the NES console. The ISS is a good one but tedious with the solar panels.

I was just going to say I think I have my old NES console. Then realized they made a LEGO one, lol.

Yup! I still have that and the F40. Definitely a fun way to spend an evening.

We have a ton of Legos here at the house, I keep trying to get rid of them but my 13 year old said he is going to do something with them.

 

[Marko]

Only legos I play are in Forza horizon 4. Lol. Lego cars pack.

 

[willsmysticcobra]

Built the Senna just now .

 

[Lord Tin Foilhat]

Need a better spot to display them.... I have a bunch still needing to be built too. Love the Speed series.

 

[Lord Tin Foilhat]

also I have noticed over the years and sets....the cars are getting bigger in the small sets!

 

[EmersonHart13]

I watch LegoMasters religiously.... I only build on occasion though.

 

[Pro Stock John]

I'd love to get rid of all our legos, I saved the instructions for most of them.

 

[IDAFC21]

I need more speed champions cars...

I need to pick up the new Supra and Jesko kits..... That vette kit does look pretty good too.....

A friend of mine uses the knock offs from aliexpress. there are a bunch of them out there and he says they are 99% as good as lego, and even compatible. I mean if you just want to build stuff as form of relaxation, no reason to bankrupt yourself.

I was into legos as a kid and got the Robotics kit in 6th grade, which was sweet.
