Um... Oh my god. That is very cool. I just can't say it any other way. The beach SNOT, the minifigures, the foliage, the boat-even the stand - all outstanding. I love building simple MOCs like this once in a while, heavily detailed, yet not gigantic. Good day

Once when I didn't receive a a piece of strong essential to the set, I contacted LEGO about it. They sent over two within three weeks. I've never encountered problems with my PaB orders. I think the worst I've ever gotten was when my Taj Mahal was three months late. Normally I wouldn't have been worried, but seeing as how it had 6000 pieces, I contacted the company. They apologized, I got my package two weeks later with free shipping! Oh yeah! Score!

I remember a few of those sets. Sign me up, I want Western! WE WANT WESTERN!

Yes! As far as I know, this is the first set with dark green 2x4 plates! Perfect, it will finish up the Gordian Knot I've been working on. Great review, you just made me want it even more! I hope they get it on Amazon.co.uk, cause it's two times the cost here in Sweden.

I love the snot work on that thing! You got my vote.

AHH! I'm geeking out about this! I'm gonna be checking the store like every 10 minutes to see if it's up yet. Know what this would go well with? The Emerald Night.

Could you please post the drill assembly? I'm curious as to see how the orange drill-thing was done. If it's a single piece, it could be extremely useful for triangular MOCs.

This has the potential of a great MOC! I don't know if the holes on the left are meant to be bullet holes, or just mould, but if you put the holes in a few more strategic places, it might look better. Also, like he said above, a road would be VERY nice. Nothing special. Maybe just a few studs across that has plants growing over it, with bits of it missing in some places. Some more ruined walls around the area might be nice. Haha, I'm goofing out just thinkin' about it!

Oh yeah... The glory of sorting. During this wonderfully (and unusually HOT) Summer of 09 here in high-tax Sweden, guess what I did? Was I outside on the beach? Was I taking walks in the park? NO! I was sorting 30,000 pieces of LEGO right from scratch. The scary part is that I (with the help of Mom, naturally), was able to do it within a two-week period. I currently hold 217 boxes of sorted LEGO, all of which are sorted; be it by theme or piece. I also have six boxes of those cubicle suitcase things. For the fun facts, more than 3000 SEK (roughly more than $300) were spent on some of the highest quality storage boxes I have ever seen. Yep... Well, at least I didn't have to pay for it. Would have ruined my LEGO shopping list for the next year! The pain of sorting though, is that it requires a HUGE amount of discipline. The MOCs and purchases add up extremely quickly. At the moment I'm sitting next to about 1000 pieces of LEGO that has to be resorted. Ughh.

Nice review. I'm gonna be getting mine (hopefully) sometime before Christmas. It'll look great under the tree. Although I'm going to have to be doing some customization with the passenger car to make it 8 studs.

Hello people. I've always been a fan of LEGO, and why I never got around to signing up this site until now I'll never know. I'm mainly interested in Space, and hence will usually post all of my creations on MOCPages, right here. I've been a constant member of Brickset for a while now, and I hope to do the same here. Oh, and I tend to be incredibly nosy and judging, and I have no intention on changing that policy, so don't even bother. And yes, I have come up with longer sentences.

You know you are a LEGO fan when you think how an everyday object or environment can be done LEGO.
