You, my friend, are a freak of a different kind. My buying goes in spurts,
based on what sets are out there that (a) I cannot live without, or (b) have
gone to a really good clearance price. If I can't get enough of certain
pieces/sets then I will buy new stuff weekly (S@H monthly) until I feel that
my creation has enough resources. I renewed my interest in about 1994 and
have tried to get what I can from Pirate, Space, Castle, Aquazone, whatever
compliments those themes, and Star Wars. What drives me on are two goals: (1)
A decent sized Knight's Kingdom, and (2) a VERY large space capitol ship
project. Trouble is what won't I need.
Don't miss out on all the cool new colors in the 1999 and 2000 sets!
Happy building!
