Simply superb! This is exactly the kind of set LEGO should be producing. It's
so recognizable. Excellent work James. I'm humbled.

Master Builder James does it again...
I just spent a little time poring over this, and showing it to some of
my NL cow orkers, who are all pretty impressed. Now, I can't go so far
to say that I'm humbled (1) but I'm certainly impressed and in awe, as
usual.
1 - :-) Me?? Humble? Surely you jest.
