Yes completely managed by Legofan Peter Reinartz, who is collector off all old
kind of Lego stuff from wooden toys till the era of the closed Lego-"O" began
in 1971(?). I think he owns more than the worths of a small house in Lego
materials...
A fried of him is collector especially of the H0 scale car models. And some
other have specialiced in other series and times.
I myself came there mainly to meet other Legofans and brought the station
building, the halftimbered houses and a dozen models of 6-wide train MOCs with
me.

Right: many ultra-rare sets. For example set 139a (one of my rarest sets) was
one of the most common ones there. ;-)

It is just devoted to Lego collectibles. As you can imagine the prizes are at
least on ebay niveau, often even much higher.
I was the only guy with MOCs at the first meeting in April 2000, but now there
have been some more people who showed their beautiful creations too.
I hope next time in spring 2000 there will be both kind of people there again:
collectors and creators and I guess it will be even a bigger event that time.
Kind Regards,
Ben
