Hey, its just a start, we just cant plan on going sub-orbital on the first
attempt. Theres far more potential in this concept
but initially I honestly
believe that to create a 375/6075 Yellow Castle in Dark Gray would be the
perfect launch in the right direction. A course that could eventually become
far more dynamic!

A great example!
Weve all taken pre-existing sets and improved upon them
Now, its TLGs turn!
I'm sure theyve got to the production stage of a set and wished
that they could only just go back in time and improve upon a few
key elements in strategic locations.
Now is their chance!
Optimistically,
