>>8723744>Honestly, I was thinking the exact same thing. I remember as a kid I'd just have Batman or whatever with one rigid outstretched are but as I moved the figure to "punch" the other figure in my head plays out a more dynamic scene. Maybe in a way that creates more of a connection?Connection is important. I'm actually moving more towards model kits/lego right now because they feel like more of an experience for me than just cracking open a figure and putting it on display. I had these great initial feelings when I got my favorite/most wanted figures, but I kept on buying figures that were just filling spaces rather than representing characters/things I really liked.
This is also in my experience a bit of an adulthood/childhood divide. For example, I look at the Super Mario Lego sets that have come out. I wish I could enjoy those like kids can . . . where just bopping that little Mario figure around a course is fulfilling. But I fundamentally cannot because my brain just says "why don't you play a Mario game instead?".
