Hello! Even if I'm more a MOC builder nowadays, I've started to be an AFOL (back in the days when there wasn't the internet, nor the word AFOL ) collecting town sets, bought in department stores, sometimes with years of distance between them. Other them, there are still some of the sets of my childhood. at least those who survived entirely At age 14 I started to buy sets as a form of collection, in a time when almost anybody in the world cellected Lego sets (I was anticipating the future ) The 675 snack bar was the first set I bought for collection, so it's still in near-mint conditions. This is the first time, after many years, I'm displaying in the collection, due to the move I've had two years ago and lacking of free space. The house is my Christmas gift of 1975, I've rebuilt it today, The bricks are very used, anche the "clutch power" of some of them is very weak, but it's 100% complete and original afterl almost 40 years of heavy play The car with the tow truck is even older, and it's the only survived set of my older vehicles. The worker with the red torso is my first minifigure (even if its legs are not original, they were replaced a few years later). The police sets were the latest city sets I've bought as a toy. The 621 police car has not its original stickers, they were replaced with printed ones. and with the snack bar I started to buy set as a collector... (to be continued...)
