There's been a lot of renewed interest in my customs model kits and I've actually been considering to crank up the old production lines.

I have about thirty sets from several years ago (most MISB) that I've decided to sell. It's been a while since I've sold any of my LEGO and I realize that the LEGO-selling landscape has changed somewhat since then. I'd really appreciate the opinion (...)
