Look at any LEGO set from the 90s, and it'll be pretty weird. Unique pieces, insane printing, tech like fiber optics, light sensors, or electric motors...there is something incredibly special about this era of LEGO. Join me as I do a deep dive into the themes of the 90s, and explore what changed in the decades since.

Today's guest: the wonderful and inventive R. R. Slugger! Slugger's videos explore the lesser-known areas of LEGO with a sincerity that is not touched by nostalgia. A few of my favorite videos:

• I ❤️ LEGO Studios
• R.R. Slugger’s Top 10 LEGO Trans Colours!
• LEGO Galidor: 20th Anniversary Retrospective!

Please show Slugger some love! There aren't enough content creators like him.
