I know I'm insane for bidding that much, so if this is a record, its one that
I'll be regretting when the credit card bill comes at the end of the
month...either way, I'm sure I'll be selling off some of my extra sets to try
and pay for part of this, so I'll make sure to post them here.

some of the sets that we have never even seen what they look like before
would go for MISB, for example 0016 castle minifigures from 1978:

or Knight's Challange [sic] from 1988:

Hmmm, 1 person owns the 1584.  They must know what it looks like.
