  How's this for an idea ...
 
I was looking through the SCLTC layout (by the way, was it Chris or Eric that mentioned a full-size built up 3D LEGO terrain ... well, they have the real thing here[1]), and came across a great thing that they have at their show(s): (URL) anyone (...)

(...) What is that one? Shaun makes a Guinness vanish? :-) Oh, you said TRUCK, not trick.... the #4 item threw me off a bit, what can I say? It should be noted that MichLTC has done these lists, for fun, the last couple of shows. We print them on (...) (22 years ago, 12-Nov-02, to lugnet.org.us.nelug, lugnet.trains.org)

(...) We find that people will spend quite a bit of time looking for everything on the list and will ask about things they can't find. The kids are especially excited to find Spiderman or Yoda. We also put some extra things on just for ourselves! (...) (22 years ago, 13-Nov-02, to lugnet.trains.org)

I like it! We have always done this verbally anyway, so this just makes sense. If we can come up with...10? 15? things for people to look for, I'd be happy to print up the list. We could then pin them to the skirt at various places along the table (...) (22 years ago, 13-Nov-02, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)

Here's one I thought up a while ago. How many Harry Potters? I wanted to flood the layout with Harry Potter minifigs. We can hide most of them so they it doesn't look too tacky. Here's one for my factory, find the mini soccer bus sets. And one for (...) (22 years ago, 13-Nov-02, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)
 
  Re: How's this for an idea ...
 
PNLTC has done this as well and found that it is a big hit. We've watched families "play" this together as a team effort... they'd spen sometimes an hour at it. We did several flavors of this too at different layouts, I think it started as a (...) (22 years ago, 14-Nov-02, to lugnet.trains.org)
