I know we have fans Lego as well as fans of old technology around here. Is there any overlap in these groups? Before I list it on eBay, is there anybody here who wants to buy a first gen Lego Mindstorms kit? I haven’t done a full inventory, but I think it’s complete. It looks like it’s either never been used, or used very little. I’d like to put the money towards other Lego. I'm thinking $150 shipped?

Wow does this bring back memories! We did battle bots in my 8th/9th grade engineering class with these.

Nah I have all those pieces, except for the mindstorm bits. Rare that a school edition comes up for sale though.

OOOOOHHHHHHH man I want that. I don’t have $150 to spend on it though; I’m still trying to save up $90 to buy the Lego Fiat 500. I have one of those old M indstorms kits already, but not the transmitter, so I have no way to program it :/ Oh well, at least I have an NXT that I can still program whenever I’m feeling like doin’ some robotics.

It's been hard for me to resist raiding it for pieces.

It must be rare for a school kit to be so complete. The ones at my school never had even half the correct pieces, sometimes making completion impossible.

That’s a fair price for that set. Unfortunately, even though I want it, I don’t really need it.

Thanks. I totally understand that. I just figured I'd offer it up first here.

I’m just seeing this now. I might be interested; I love LEGO stuff and so does my 7-year-old. I need to learn a little more about this particular set, though I did some Lego Logo programming stuff as a kid... is the like, the modern version of that?

These are modern in the sense that they were programmed through a windows program, in a drag and drop style of programm ing . I used these with students about 13-15 years ago. They have since been replaced by another generation of Lego robots. So, modern ... kinda. Not the latest and greatest though.
