One word, WOW. You can really tell that TLG did their homework, and actually
put time into designing this set, due to the beautiful craftsmanship it has.
At first I actually thought it was a MOC that an AFOL designed it and
brought to the show, since I didn't think LEGO could actually build a nice
set in this day of Jack Stone, Juniorized and cost efficent sets, etc., but
it looks like LEGO underestimated me. Details like that small yellow crane
to the tinted roof windows really do make a big difference in choosing a
set, and this is one set I don't want to pass up.
