So, how long did it take me to build it? Time will be measured in hours, as well as beer and cigarette breaks.

P-

Tell us the truth, it's not a lego castle, you're adding on to your kitchen.
hahahahahaha

You've got me opening 12 or so bags, somewhat sorting pieces, reading instructions... and STILL placing a piece every 11 seconds.

Ok, that changes things. 1300 pieces. Hmmmm.

7 hours/4 bathroom breaks/half pack cigs/six pack.

I would have thought a man with your abilities would have managed it quicker than an 8 year old child! 😛

This Lego Harry Potter Hogwarts Castle is one of the Top Christmas Gift 2010 for boys arround 8 - 14 years old.

Maybe you and your huckleberry friend can grab a few bags of Doritos, a six-pack of Dr. Peppers and spend the weekend putting it together (make sure you get your parents' permission, of course).

The 8 year old smokes less. 😕

Well, then it isn't a very good model of Sell-a-Irish-Sea, is it? Tsk.

Hey now, kids these days can also program your Betamax to record your favorite programs at a certain time as well as set your telnet protocol so you can visit the world wide web.

Give an old man a break!

Cripes, it wasn't for me! It was for my son. I got a remote control helicopter as well as an electronic Rubik's Cube... thank you very much.

Elec.... what!!!??! That must be one of the most pointless "innovations" ever. What good is a Rubik's Cube without the clever innards and the tactile enjoyment?

It's called a Rubik's Slide... it's interesting... I used it half an hour and solved all sorts of little puzzles... and went back to the cube.

I like how the people in the vid act like they know what there doing... I'm starting to get a feel for it, but it is NOT the cube.
