I have to agree with this whole-heartedly.. My entire lego collection
from when I was a kid ended up being sold off as part of one of
our yard sales for a measly $5.. That's right, the entire lot, hundreds
of dollars worth of classic space stuff, gone for $5... all due to a
miscommunication in our family. I regretted it ever since. But that
regret also spawned a new love for lego. I now own more than I
ever did back then, and even got my hands on some of that old
vintage stuff so I could have some of the same look and feel, while
mixing it in with all the really new cool stuff... Did I mention how
much I like Spaceport and new Mars stuff?? :)
