Thank you for sharing, that was quite an emotional read.

I want one and I would rather give my money to TLG instead of some Ebay seller! *signed*

That's actually really cool! I wonder how many people are tempted to steal those bricks though....

For what its worth, my helmets all fit fine. Glad that this was not a problem across the board...Sorry you got a bum set By the way, I think "recycle" means melt down...but I'd love to be wrong!

Motorcycle Chase for the obvious reason...a Sean Connery minifig!

KB Toy Stores (at least in the central New Jersey area) have been carrying Viking sets (7017 and some others) that I haven't seen in stores for a while if anybody is interested. Sorry if this is the wrong place to post, Im not allowed to post in the "finds" forum yet but I thought others might like to know.

I hate to have my bricks sorted for me, even when I have had numbered and sorted sets I have always dumped them all together before starting the build. The frustrated ten minute search for a transparent 1x1 plate is part of what I love about LEGO! So to answer your question, no, I would not be willing to pay extra.

Yeah. I knew it would be obvious, and now that its been spelled out for me, it makes perfect sense....Thanks Cap'n Zuloo

This is great! I love the fact the "slave" seems to be older and balding...Great stuff!

Most likely a very obvious answer, but what does mean? You cant build with plates on a baseplate? You cant set one baseplate on top of another? Cant stack plates to equal the height of a brick? None of these options sound correct to me, but its all I can think of...Please help!

Great prizes, this contest should be fun!

I want one! *crosses fingers*
