Lego celebrates its 90th anniversary this year, so it is no surprise that it has a massive number of adult fans, many of whom grew up playing those iconic toy bricks over the years.

And chances are, these adult fans of Lego (AFOL for short) also played with some of Lego’s most classic sets as well, including those from the Castle and Space themes from the 1970s and 1980s.
