Don't worry that you may not get many comments online either, I'm sure there are many folks like me that love the MOCs at various shows but just don't speak up. I especially like the (...)

| Well, I used to think that our (IndyLUG's) recent layout was really cool. Now that I see MichLUG's, I'm somewhat humbled. You guys have done a superb job in my 2 favorite themes. Was there any kind of competition, or was everything just for show? (23 years ago, 25-Oct-03, to lugnet.org.us.michlug, FTX)

| MichLUG was happy to display this past weekend at the Motor City ComiCon in Novi, MI. This is our second time displaying with them and we again had a great time.

Still I will probably continue in the same scale... it makes my bricks go (...) (23 years ago, 20-Oct-03, to lugnet.org.us.michlug, lugnet.castle, FTX)

| Hi Jason, I like both of these buildings especially the pub. Using the ell shape is creative. The white 2x2 windows and timber frame make the buildings seem to be on a minifig scale. Everything is very Furmanesque; my apologies Jon ;) These are (...) (23 years ago, 20-Oct-03, to lugnet.org.us.michlug, FTX)

| Hey Jason, These are very nice buildings. I like the L shaped one the best. I especially like the stepped roof line. Do the buildings have interiors? If so, do they open up? Anyway, just wanted to say that they look good! Jon Furman (23 years ago, 18-Oct-03, to lugnet.org.us.michlug, FTX)
