Hi TC! I like City, buildings in general. Don't really have an interest in SW, but have some HP, Potc sets. I'm not really into vehicles apart from some City ones to bulk out the town a bit. That being said, I would never say no to any Lego should it be offered! The LotR sets look interesting, and I have some Super Heroes too. For me, the 30% discount worked out well. We could spend up to $1000. I soent $700 getting TH, DS and MMV ... for $490 -- so that was good!

I shall post a link after I've posted 5 times ... (a Eurobricks forum restriction) Both of the MOCs I've done are similar in idea to yours -- a basis from another Lego set, but expanded, shifted and improved!

Is Portland really like it's portrayed on the (very excellent) show "Portlandia"?

Ey ey, calm down, calm down! Cheers for the welcome!

Hi! I'm a Scouser (denizen of Liverpool, UK) now living in Massachusetts, US. Always been into Lego, generally always having some around and/or on display, but really got back into it around 2006, and then along came the modulars, which I love and have almost all of (just Pet Shop and Market Street not yet obtained). I have also started to build MOC buildings. Last year I joined the New England LUG (NELUG), and since then have been at 3 shows, two of which I exhibited at. Being in a LUG comes with perks, such as helping with the new Peabody MA store: we built the brand ribbon models a month or so ago (and got discounts!!) and next weekend I'll be assisting in the Master Model build (which has its own perks). So ... there we go. If you want to know more, just ask! Andy
