More pics?!?! COOL :)
In case some of you couldn't tell, I wish I coulda been there.
Is the Mindfest an annual thing?? Is LEGO always one of the
main things?? Just think what it could be like next year if none
of you guys do something stupid like taking those totally
cool models apart.
Keep the AT-ATs, add some AT-STs, a Millenium Falcon, etc,
etc, etc. Just think how cool that would be. You could do the
Hoth/Endor Rebel base idea.
I guess what the speaker at a Missions Conference that I went
to last week is sinking in, "If you're going to dream, dream big."
