Built my Maersk ship last night. What a great model. It was a lot of fun to build. Well up until the containers, then it got a little repetitive. Great way to start out your stone grey collection. Tons of 1x2, and 2x8 plates, 2x10 bricks and 1x6 (...) (20 years ago, 26-May-04, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

So I parted my first 2004 set into my collection. I'm trying to figure out how to sort out the new greys.
