As a child my biggest wish was a miniscale train layout. I never got it but what i got alternatively is still reflecting to my adult ages ;-)

I believe it was 6269 King Kahuka's throne.

It was Christmas morning 1985 or 86 and there was this big box under the tree. I ripped open the paper to find..

That started passion for Lego and I'm still trying to replace that set, I will get it again one day.

My cousin lost all the cool pieces

Back in 1978 Target Australia started to promote and carry a new toy ....it's name Lego Town !

99cents got me my first lego set ever...........then the dark times came five years later.

Only in 2008 did the light of the brick shine again with the first set just for little old me (not for my son) was this .......

.....yes do I do like fire trucks too !

I'm a conformist! !

I believe is was Christmas '88 or '89 and this was waiting under the tree with the windmill set built:

My dad said he was up all night putting it togehter!

I got lego train set 171-1 as a Christmas gift in 1973.

Ni-ice! I bought that on Bricklink a couple years ago. It must've been kinda cool to have that one great minifigure as a start to your collection.

I think my first set was 2555 Belville Swing, quite a strange choice but at that time you didn't have a lot to choose from, so almost any set you could find was good.

Hi there,

I would like to know what is the first Lego box that you have received or bought.

For me, my first set ever was the 6252 Sea Mates from the Lego Pirates Theme.

I was only three years old when I received it. And since that day, I have become a big fan of Lego Pirates.

Aaaahh... Sweet memories!!

There is a thread in Community for this Here. Odd place I know, but there are several pages of discussion

Well, thanks to telling me. I have searched for this topic before creating this one, but I didn't found it.

My first ever was the 6252 Sea Mates. Pirate one day, pirate forever!

I remember that I received a value bucket of freestyle bricks too.

That's going back a bit. I can't remember. The earliest I remember is the yellow/red four-wide garbage truck, but I'm fairly certain I already had some Lego before receiving that.

I loved it. It came with a bin that you could put on a lift at the back and tip into the truck. One of the first sets I got after my dark age ended was the modern orange equivilent, it made me rather nostalgic.

Thanks, WhiteFang!

My first set (which i still have almost complete) was

My first set

My first set was this:

http://www.technicsets.co.uk/Lego-Set/Detail/2634/Index.html . I was about 3.

Ah, i haven't posted here yet.

My first set was Jedi Duel 1 or 2- the one with the Imp officer. Funny, thay's the only true Imp Officedr I have (True as in without the giant black helmet)

That would be Final Duel II.

I think you may be confusing Final Duel (7200 & 7201 from ROTJ) with Jedi Defense (7203 & 7204 from TPM).

The actual Jedi Duel set (7103) is from AOTC and is Dooku/Yoda with a crane and Dooku's speederbike:

I think mine was the 6335 Indy Transport. It still has its own place among my sets. :D

my first was this small plane that my grandmother gave me when my first sister was born. I still have some of the pieces, despite the fact that at that age I only took Lego sets apart

Wow! I'm not sure... I had a lot of hand-me down Legos at first. I remember a lot of race car sets, or at least those sloped brickes with the numbers on them. Early to mid 80's or so.

I think the first set I remember getting on my own was a gas station, but I'm not sure which one. I'd have to track it down. The only other sets from when I was little that really stand out were the Forest Hideout in the Castle theme and the Model Master white semi.

That would be Final Duel II.

Right, that's it. I have Jedi Duel and Jedi Defence as well, but I got those later.

The first set I remember is the Pirate Ship 6268 but I already had LEGO before (by my brother). Anyway, I think it is the first set offered to me (and not to my brother ).
