DrJB started a thread a while ago entitled something to the effect of "sets that brought you out of your 'Dark age'". A related thread may ask the question, what sets haunt you (i.e. what sets did you miss while in your dark age) or what sets do you lament the most on missing? To adequately respond to this it probably would be nice to let people know when you "got back in the game" so as to give a time frame on sets that you may have missed. As I mentioned in DrJB's thread, the set that brought me back was the most recent supercar, 8070. So, pretty much I missed out on all the flagship sets before 2011. Instead of labeling off all these sets, if I were to narrow it down to ONE set that haunts me (i.e. the one set that I missed out on, that is currently out of production) the MOST would have to be 8043. So many have modified it, built it, etc... I get the feeling that I missed out on something special. If I had the chance to get any set prior to 2011, that set would be it. What set haunts YOU (given the description of "haunt" above"? Given, I know that we can all hop on bricklink and buy pretty much any set that we want, but they get almost prohibitively expensive, so.... I think people get what I mean by the haunting feeling. The haunting feeling may not really be that we can't get access to a certain set (because, via bricklink we can buy almost anything) but because of the feeling that we "missed" something special while in our dark ages. Instead of spouting dozens of sets off.... try to limit your set to one or two.... I dare you!
