Those are really great buildings. In image mid-view.jpg there is a wonderful fire station building of what looks like orange blocks with grey highlighted features. I was wondering if you I could get a close up of the brackets on that building. They (...) (18 years ago, 12-Nov-06, to lugnet.town)

(...) Thank you, Eric. (...) I don't buy very many sets any more, but when I do and I end up with 'junk' (parts I don't normally use) I try to challenge myself to put them to use. Sometimes the results look 'forced' and other times I am happy with (...) (18 years ago, 9-Nov-06, to lugnet.town)

Jonathan, these buildings are fantastic! When I think about building mech bays, I always think how much more advanced the "Town" builders are when it comes to structure. I look up to folks like you when I build and I think to myself, "the more I (...) (18 years ago, 9-Nov-06, to lugnet.town)

Absolutely beautiful! When I looked at the first thumbnail I thought that it was a reference picture of a real street. I love the colour choice (that orange is my faviourite lego colour and the dark red and sand green suit each other so well). (...) (18 years ago, 8-Nov-06, to lugnet.town, FTX)
