Has anyone made fun of your intrest in Astro?

[jeffbert]

There was a cartoon in the 60s called The Mighty Heroes, another page The Mighty Heroes

which was about a rock group composed of freaks who were also super heroes. As I remember, one guy was liquid, another was a spring, and one was a baby boy named Diaper Man; however these pages agree only with Diaperman. Furthermore, there is nothing about the rock and roll group. Perhaps I am confusing two different things.

Yes, I have indeed confused THE IMPOSSIBLESwith the Mighty Heroes.

And what about the guys in the navy?

Nobody has never made fun of me. My friends all liked Astro when I was young, and after that I stopped thinking about it. Plus, when I really like something, I tend to be shy about it, so I wouldn't talk about it very much (strange, I know...but it's not as bad now as it was back then). But I'm not shy to say that I'm watching Astro now because I've seen many people on the Internet who wanted to see the show again, and around here I'm the lucky one who can watch it again!

I've just read this thread... DrFrag, you were talking about Lego (it was more than a year ago, I know)... I suddenly remember that I kept mine! For some reason, when I was a teen and stopped playing, I put them in that box saying that one day I'd take them out... I still haven't, and I had almost forgotten about it until I read this thread...

To be honest, watching Astroboy is one thing, but if somebody was to come here in my office, with my Astroboy screen saver, my Astroboy DVDs and legos all over my desk, I think their jaw would drop!!!!! Everybody would really think I'm back to childhood!!! :wahah:

Quite frankly at this point, I wouldn't hesitate to do something fun if I felt like it. So I think I'd take my legos out of the box if I wanted to play, but I really don't know what I could build... :huh: A crystal castle maybe? Would somebody want to come here to play with me? It would be too boring alone! B) No? Okay, so I guess my legos will stay in my box until I have children...

Regarding LEGO, some adults have made some very large and elaborate models and published photos on the internet. I thought of my own creations as rather complex & detailed, but some of those used thousands of pieces:

Wow! Thanks for the links, it was very interesting!

And I thought I had a lot of blocks... I need more! :wahah: Well, maybe after my Astroboy addiction wears off... :huh: IF it does...

Oh do you think I'd be spared anything from my anime covered work desk? However they thought my AstroBoy plush with the Carl Vinson ball cap and home made sailor working uniform was awesome.

The best of both worlds...

According to my instruction, it should have taken 2290 red bricks to build the boots. I did it with 2283 and I don't know how.

If find this sentence awesome :wahah:
You made a mistake of 7 out of more than 2000, and you look surprised

Now that's cool. I wish I had the time and talent to do that. That will be so awesome when it's done.
