I think I have to agree with Eric. I am more into MOC than putting together a
set. The figs are the actors in my little plays and the sets give me parts
for the props and stage. I can't imagine collecting all of the sets. My wife
loves me, but I doubt she would put up with the expense or space required. :o)
To answer Jonathan's question, I think the newer figs are just as good as the
older ones. The older figs just give more variety to the "people" inhabiting
my lego world. My biggest problem with the newer sets is that they are just
facads. You can't make a complete castle with them, just the front side. My
other gripe with the newer sets is the lack of basic blocks.
