I'm gonna stick my nose in here, and say I agree whole hartedly.
besides that you can now save money :-) I haven't bought anything from lego
in aprox 9 monthes. of coarse I'm going into my dark ages, so you might have
different results with not getting lego sets.
my point being is that this isn't completely bad.
