Best Lego Set

[Dragon King]

What is your favorite lego set you have ever gotten? Mine was a dragon master castle called fire breathing fortress or dark dragon den

[Darth_Ewok]

The lego set that brought me out of my Dark Ages (it hooked me)

The very first X-Wing *satis*

... I don't have pics though :( Don't know where to look

Imperial trading post. I love the simple design...3 Buildings, cranes, 3 cannons!...Nice docks...Could use 1 less pirate and one more blue epauleted shako hated gaurd...But the little merchant ship makes up..All soo very beautiful!

One of my all time favorites:

This was my first castle and the most special. It's probably not my all-time favorite set, but it definately brings back some very fun childhood memories.

After 10 people post their favorite sets, we should do a poll to see how they rank.

One of my all time favorite sets (Either number one or in the top three):

[gylman]

Airtech Claw Rig. 8868.

Never before or since has so much functionality been packed into such a (relatively) small package.

[Evil Willy]

Wow brickster and gylman interesting choices...They are not my style(Althought I like the Wild West) But I like your distinct choices not just voting for what everyone thinks is the best, but you likings, your set in particular the brickster is really nice..Two houses a cart JAMMED with figs lots of playability nice piece set etc...

Well, I enjoy both system and Technic lego, but Technic rules in my collection and in the amount of time I spend building things. Nothing has ever surpassed the Claw Rig. There have been bigger sets, nicer looking sets, but nothing with better engineering. One of these days I need to build a bigger version of it with remote control, but that would be quite the challenge.

I agree that Imperial Trading Post is one of the all time best. I love that set too.

If I was to pick a system fav, out of all the amazing things that are out there, it would be a tough call. I like classic castle best, probably the Black Falcon's Fortress, 6074, which is a perfect set: not too big, not too small, fun build, nice looking.

This years Building Bonanza is probably the best value for money in a set that Lego has ever made. Tiles, tons of white, green slopes, roof +++, long old gray elements, for a very reasonable price. Nothing in that set is useless. Every serious MOCer needs to buy 3-5 of this set.

All my personal opinion of course.

This was the last set I got before entering my Dark Ages.

I believe it to be one of the best castle sets EVER *knight*

It's my favourite followed by the UCS X-Wing that brought me out the Dark Ages again :oD

Phew, that's a tough one. My favorite SW set (which is the only thing I actually collect to display, the rest of my sets are bought for parts) would be the 4504 Millenium Falcon. I was so happy to get the 2nd version, since I missed the first one. I also got it real cheap :-D. And it just looks that good...

Out of non-SW sets, I especially like the fire station and police station I own. I also really like the Sopwith Camel

I always wanted this castle from the 80s. Very nice set. I do have Black Falcon's Fortress when it was released as a legend. Great set also - just small in comparison to 6085.

I esp. like the figs in 6074 (Black Falcon's Fortress). The combination of black and blue look great. This was a good choice for Lego to do as a Legend.

The 80s castle and pirate sets were definately some of the best ever!

Mine is 6080, King's Castle.

This is a hard one. I've always been a fan of lego's cranes, so this is one of my all time fav's..

8438 Crane truck

I remeber seeing this in one of my catologs when i was a kid, and fell in love. I don't think i missed a single school asignment, and went to bed without a so my parents would get it for me for Christmas. (to bad it was back ordered, and i dind't actualy get it till like feb or somthing).

This is the oldest set that i still have together that i bought when i was young. This crane has had quite a life, and helped build some pretty cool stuffin my back yard. It was also one of the ones i modified the most. Added an attachment jib, made the arms extend longer, made my own outriggers, (the stock ones weren't long enough for what i was lifting). Never had the heart to take it apart......

So i guess i'd have to say that this one is my fav set. *wub*
