My views on ADVENTURERS as a theme:
Since LEGO started a new era in 1997, Adventurers has been the best new idea
to come out of it. It finally brings mummy's and temples and dinos to the
world of LEGO. I build theme parks (so far I have two. I finshed the web site
and now AOL won't let me publish it, so I have to start all over on another
server! ugh!) so Adventurers makes a great addition (though please note, my
theme parks are currently mostly just landscaping with the actual sets in it.
I am desgining a third theme park which will feature tons of MOCs). Anyway,
enough about theme parks. I love Adcenturers. I have all the desert ones, and
some of the jungle ones (and I plan on buying all of them), and I LOVE the
dino ones best of all. Town is still my favourite, but until Town goes back to
its roots, I'll stick with mainly Adventurers (though I collect all themes).
