Hi,
I didn't originally see your response (I usually only monitor a post for
about a week after I post it).
Thanks for the compliments.
The Star Wars Museum was an enhancement of the Euphoria Monorail Station.
Your guess is correct in that the SW Museum and the Travel Agency cannot
exist at the same time.
The Travel Agency used up every last 1x6x9 curved clear panel in my
inventory ( All 84 of them!). I still have a few of the smaller panels left
as well as the large 6x6x9 corner panels.
I think that the Scorpion Palace is worth $50. I have 4 (although I am able
to get them for only $40 due to having a relative who is a Disney employee
who gets a 20% discount at the LEGO store on Disney property.) In addition
to the onion domes, the arches, columns, and fencing are all great parts
(and many parts such as the 2x2x12 supports and the 1x12x3 arches are
extremely rare otherwise).
