Yep, apart from the occasional offer, the world club doesn't seem to offer
anything to AFOL's at present. it would be good if they could actually add
an 'OPEN' category to their building competitions, so AFOL's could show the
younger generation what is possible, and to help them build better models.
I'd also like to see LegOz get some form of recognition there in the nearish

get rid of their collections because it's not 'cool'. [I wonder how many
children have given away their lego, and a few years later regretted it.]
Also, it could allow parents to contact us, and we could help them with
advice like cheapest stores, sets not available in Australia and how to get
them, parts exchange, etc.
