    Dang - just looked it up on Lego.com - that sucker is going for $279.99
    I've got some rewards points on my VIP card but that's still going to be steep. :(

    I don't have any experience with the Mindstorm sets. It looks like it has tons of potential. Wish I could help.

    Do you have a lot of the winter village? I thought about getting the other 2 current sets. The retired ones are demanding too high of a premium. Then again I'm also looking during the holiday season.

    I did pick up the NRG dragon on sale from Amazon too. Just $31.

    Just that one in a couple of the smaller giveaway Christmas themed sets. We have a room partition with a ledge on it near our front door and I set them all up there for the holiday. :D

    Toys R Us has a special running. Buy $30 in Star Wars Legos and get the A-Wing pilot minifig for free. So I had to buy 2 more AT-STs :)

    I guess the Detective Office wins then I'll get the Parisian Restaurant. I'll save the Brick Bank till next year. Then lastly the new Assembly Square.

    The restaraunt was a good build but it doesn't fit in as well as the others do when placed together. :(
