For myself, I'm probably going to go this particular route. Get it in writing
and hopefully leave less aggravation for those I love. When it comes to
expensive items that aren't covered in wills, I've heard lots of horror stories
over the years--families breaking up and such. I highly doubt that this would
happen over my LEGO collection, but I'd rather have everythign squared away
beforehand.
I have nephews and nieces that are interested at the moment, but I plan on
living for another 40ish years--they may not be interested in the future. But
that's were modifications to the will come in. It'll evolve over time.
