Thanks Paul and Bruce for clearing the RBR mistery up. So there is something fishy going on, but not by the original builder ;-) Now that you'ved mentioned it, I do remember seeing the Riviera on Brickshelf. It's a great model, no question about (...)

I'd DEFINITELY go for a shorter beard, Dumbledore hair, and Hermione hair in every possible color, as a new Service Pack. I think Lego could make some good money on such a pack.
