(...) Certainly looks that way to me, which means I *will* be buying the big set- not something I normally do for any theme. Actually, it looks like I'll be doing that multiple times in the coming year... oww, my wallet hurts already... :D eric (26 years ago, 9-Dec-99, to lugnet.adventurers)

Good analysis, Mark. Love the set breakdown. A few comments I have: 1. Vegetation--I agree, I wish there were a bit more. :) I want this to have a Jurassic paradise feel, not just to be a stony island with dinosaurs. 2. It would be nice to have some (...)

Hi everyone. I'm relatively new to .adventurers. I've only really posted once, in the past, trying to find set 5909 (which everyone here was extremely helpful with . . .thanks!).

I know this is my own message, but I forgot something. Look in set 5987, and 5975, I'm positive that Harry Cane (Gabarro?) got to change his outfit. That makes him the only minifig with a different outfit for every adventure. Thanks again, K@RL (...) (26 years ago, 7-Dec-99, to lugnet.adventurers)
