I was fond of LEGO, which are by far the most versatile game of all
time (what is more versatile than buying bricks and constructing
whatever you want with them :) ). I had also all those Transformers and
other changing robots :) . And I used my LEGO mostly to create my own
sentai series (you know, those Japanese live action series we had in
France and that Saban used to make his Power Rangers nonsense). I never
had a brother (I have a sister, but she has never been interested in
LEGO or such), nor a best friend, that may be why I never created entire
societies with the bricks I had (and still have, they are in a closet at
my parents' apartment).
