Check them out at lego.com

His domain is rr.com and he's not a train fan??? :-)

Thanks for the pointer. We appreciate it. Seriously.

Hopefully, though, it won't be a big surprise that we knew about it within
minutes of when the images first hit the site, right???

Train fans are the most rabid brickfans there are. Who else makes the
massive displays we do? :-)

<Blatant challenge. Must respond...>

Star Wars fans:

Castle fans:

Brikwars fans:

Space fans:

... and many other examples, but these were what sprung to mind, and
responded to quick & easy searches.

Keep in mind that one of the big reasons that trainheads get more visability
than other LEGO fans is because they're tapping into an existing support
structure (Model RR community).  Hopefully, other Lego fans will tap into
similar structures more often in the future, which will increase the
visibility of other things, too.  Michlug doing a space display at a con is
a *great* example of that.  So are some of the static displays that have
been put in Libraries.
MichLUG Rules! Yea Baby! MichLu..........wait was that out loud?<grin>


(Keep raising the bar, though; don't wait for us to catch up.)
