Well, Tinkertoys are kind of fun for a limited age range, but quickly outgrown. And as for Knex -- I actually liked them when we started acquiring them, but my son never really developed an interest. Now we've got two big sets and a couple smaller ones in those huge Rubbermaid tubs just gathering dust.
I never had Legos (erm . . . Lego BRICKS) when I was a kid. I had "Playskool Building Bricks." I loved them, though.
My boyfriend (the one who ditched me at graduation) had the Girder & Panel set. We used to get buzzed and set up the HO gauge train track on his pool table, make bridges and stuff with the construction set - gosh, that was really fun. I mean, he was an ass, but we did have a lot of silly, childish fun together and I miss that. /digression
