Oh dear, that would be heresy now wouldn't it? Gimme a break, hon', BV is just
as good as any other lego set. Sure, the scale is tough to adjust to, 'coz you
need so many pieces to build a normal-sized room... but at least the buildings
and the figs' scale fit each other, unlike some (all) 'figs who request to
remain anonymous but we all now it's true... minifigs are so unscaled with
themselves that it's... it's... I dunno what it is. Too much for words,
thasfersure. As much as I love minifigs, they are extremely skewed.

Shiri, if I do, I'm tellin' you right now, all those pretty pink pieces and
figs are yours if you want them.

"pretty pink pieces"? <grin> Sure, whatever. Be my guest.
The figs, tho', are of no more use to me than to you... the only thing I've
used mine for was for a roller-coaster project in physics... But if you
insist, I'll break down and take 'em. :-)

Speaking of skewed, when was the last time any mini-fig set had a bathroom.
Is that just repressed western culture or another space (no pun intended in
the following, I'm just damned to pun per my genetics) issue?  I miss the old
faucets in my space (?!?) sets.  Do any currently available sets have faucets?
Ranting,
