Lego Secret Vault Contains All Sets In History

Posted by kdawson on from the memory-lane dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Gizmodo has an exclusive video and feature of one of the most heavily guarded secrets in Lego: the security vault where they store all the Lego sets ever created, new in their boxes. 4,720 sets from 1953 to 2008. Really amazing stuff and a trip down memory lane to every person who has played with the magic bricks. All combined, the collection must be worth millions, not only because of the collector value, but also because Lego uses it as a safeguard in copyright and patent cases."

    I'm shocked the /. crowd can turn even a story like this into a MS bash.

    I'm sure some of you would be in marketing now if you hadn't encountered those little bricks when your brains were still in the mold. Show some f*ing respect.
