(...) Whenever I buy a new set I build an alternate or two just to get a feel for the selection of parts. That's how I determine whether it's worth buying multiples of a set. Building within the constraints of a single set (or a handful of random (...) (22 years ago, 7-Aug-02, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.space)
