Thanks you guys,
I think I'll sell the castle stuff as sets, but now that I look at the
space sets...there's some pretty cool pieces there, so I'm not sure how
I'll handle those.
Thanks again,
Dan
P.S. Now I have to go build my sets to make sure I have all the
pieces...work, work, work...I'm afraid I won't want to sell them when
I'm done...
