What Makes LEGO special for you?

Let's face it...It's a toy, but... For me I have marveled at all the cool things in the world from real life to fiction...and especially science fiction. I also have the collector gene in me...so everything I like...I want it....in some form or fashion I grew up 1st gen immigrant family so toys were pretty far down the list of priorities for my family. There was an endless list of toys I wanted from Saturday morning cartoons and the commercials in-between. I received a medium size LEGO set and that basically unlocked the world to me. I could now build the toy I wanted. Game changer. Fast forward way too many years and I see all the cool things...in LEGO form and I gotta have it. I guess it's like a baseball card gives a collector a sense of owning a piece of a player...having the F-40 in LEGO is kinda like that...I feel like I own apiece of it...a piece of the Millennium Falcon....a piece of the Batmobile. And as these sets retire...their value (generally) appreciate making my collection more coveted in some ways. The latter is kinda important as I also have that investor gene of needing to have my stuff appreciate in value.
