i concur (not as a woman!.. hehe)... my NLSO looks at my 8880, 8480, 8448, and
my emerging blacktron I collection and just shakes her head... but i bought the
flying ninja's fortress just cause she thought it looked so cool.. we built it
together.. and the only other sets that she ever comments on in stores are
*always* structures... she even once stated "i like the buildings, i don't
get what's so cool about the other stuff"... so to get your NLSO involved.. let
her browse... remain open to structures, that's what'll draw her in ;)
