So I am now about to get the fundamental "Lego" but what should I buy?

I imagine: 1n400x, 2n2222, 555 timer, lm339 but what more?

Richard Crowley:
You could buy (or replicate) pre-assembled kits like this:

OSOYOO Electronic Component Kit (Total 1390 PCS) - LED Diodes, 30 Values Resistors,Electrolytic Capacitor Package, Ceramic Capacitors, Common Diodes, Common Transistor



I believe there have been previous discussions here in EEVblog about common electronic components to stock

That sounds like a great idea, but I was / am not sure what to get of kids, and if these kits are anything remotely usable or broken.
I am sure that there have to be lots of treads about what to get and I have tried several ways to search, but to write the word "components" in this forum, is like writing needle in a farming forum:-)

Yeh, but you always need resistors of various wattage and values, caps, signal, power and zener diodes, power transistors, cmos ICs, etc, etc, etc.  And, it is always fun stocking up!
