    Absolutely!!

    I'm dying to get into these sets(for my birthday, i got the UCS 1989 Batmobile & Batwing).

    The wife has asked me to build a new dining table, so, the table comes first.
    But as soon as that's done I'll be diving into my Lego sets.

    The tricky part is figuring out where to place this monstrosity once she's finished.

    there's another version of a cub in the classic yellow paint submitted by other person too. would be a must buy for me if either actually make the cut!

    upload_2021-12-31_14-30-54.jpg

    I had missed them before. At 1/5th the price of the wood ones I'm tempted.

    Building up my midnight wishlist currently.

    looking at the ideas sets that were approved last year i'm getting a little anxious - the only two sets yet to be released are the globe and the van gogh set. those two were my favorites aside from the fender which i have. wonder if they're scrapping them or still working on the final production sets/

    yeah. but they're just plain old plastic. i love the idea of a wooden lego. just seems fancier, more adult.

    I know it's been covered a few times before, but I got the camper set for Christmas. It really was a surprisingly fun build.

    My one gripe was I didn't really like the lines on the SUV so I kinda reworked it to make a little access cab. :cookiemonster:

    It now adorns my kitchen.

    Alright boys and girls, I've been flooding this thread with enough pics, but here's the last big set from my childhood, my pride and joy...the Sail and Fly Marina. This had so much going on...two bigger boats, small boat, plane, crane, truck, restaurant and service station. I had to make quite a few concessions on this one in terms of colors and substitute a number of parts, but it's mostly hidden stuff and after 20 plus years, I am pretty happy that I was able to complete as many of these sets as I was able to. Hope you guys enjoyed seeing them. It was definitely a great trip down memory lane for me!

    Fun fact: both the Riptide Racer and the Cabin Cruiser had solid hulls and float in the tub. Bath time just got fun again!

    that's still one of my favorite sets out of all of the RV/camper/cabin/3in1 sets i have.
    the whole time i was building the camper i was excited over yet another detail inside of it. lot more going on than the other 3 in 1 sets i have. good "bang for your buck" set
