when I first heard/read about the new rocket I thought it was going to be 2, 3, 4 hundred bucks (like the death-star) so 120 dollars isn't so bad, it even comes with a book/pamphlet about the mission :cheers:

Yeah, $120 isn't bad after all.  Some of the sets get really pricey, but that is quite reasonable by Lego standards.   :tu:

I am not getting in on that one.... I would pay that for a SwissTool.  In fact, I did.  When they were first released they cost $145 at Canadian Tire here.

yeah my Swisstool was pretty expensive compared to others but the build and finish and quality was worth it.

Indeed it is.  Imagine my reaction when I bought the XTi for the same price, from the same place...

Oh wait, you don't have to imagine, you were probably around for that thread....  >:D

Went to "The Art of the Brick" yesterday. Pretty amazing stuff!! Anyone else seen the exhibit here would probably really enjoy it. Here's just a couple pics.

Lego is so cool for so many reasons!  I used it as a an analogy to describe digital vs analogue media the other day.  :D

Great to see you Serena!

Nice town you have built there too!  I like the fact that there are no cyclists, because it means traffic can flow freely without some idiot weaving in and out of traffic, causing accidents!  :P
