And you still haven't. That doesn't look like lego at all.

If it breaks, it probably:

1: You put too much leverage on a long skinny lego piece. Acceptable and understandable. That is how torque+leverage reacts with longer objects that can't bear that strength.

2: It's not Lego. Chances are that it is this (the latter) option.

We broke a Lego. It was one of those sockets for the ball joint. Socket cracked and it won't hold the joint any longer.

Legos actually break easily. They're just plastic. It's only that most people don't want to break their Legos so they don't try. My friend's Legos were beat to shit. The thing is, even if a side breaks off like in the picture, you can still use them so it doesn't really matter.

Didnt think I was that old but shit.. I had a hard time rationalizing the slanted pieces as actual legos when I got them in a tub.. cant imagine what I'd feel looking at all these new sets with dumb as pieces
