Got mine in the shop at Legoland Windsor weekend before last. As it was my first trip I was good and didn't go into the shop until we were ready to leave, if I had I don't think I'd have seen much of the park :-) I agree, it's a great kit. Acquiring (...) (26 years ago, 25-Oct-99, to lugnet.loc.uk)

A number of sentiments I share in here. The UK community is big enough to support a fair old exchange and sale of stuff now. With 3+ legofests a year, which seems likely to continue, there is real opportunity though. I auction stuff worldwide every (...) (26 years ago, 25-Oct-99, to lugnet.loc.uk)
