We’ve all got fond memories of our early gaming days, when we got our first console or PC and spent hours exploring the fascinating worlds of even the simplest video games. Now, LEGO has recreated that feeling in its latest set: the Atari 2600, one of the most iconic and beloved gaming consoles of all time.
With this 2532-piece set, you can build the console, insert the most popular game cartridges (including Centipede, Asteroids, and Adventure), and operate the joystick just like you used to. There’s even a “surprise open mechanism” that will delight you and bring you back to all those wonderful days you spent playing arcade games.
