I was just wondering.... I know that most of you folks build on the
minifig scale (5 brick high doors) using all those "wonderful"
(sarcastic) minifigs. Is there anyone else who builds primarily on the
classic scale (3 brick high doors - sort of the "HO" train scale)
without the minifigs? Or am I (pretentious as it sounds) alone?
Stuck in the '60s....
