            Just got this in the mail from ebay. Will be adding this to my winter holiday display this year. Can't wait to set it all up again.

              That's a great set! You'll need to add more space to your village now One of the first things I did this year when putting my village back up was add power functions to that carousel. Now I just need carousel music! You should give it a try!

                I didn't know you had a regular city set up too. Nice!

                Yeah, I will have the Toy Shop, Santa's Workshop, Winter Village Market and the new Winter Train Station set up this year along with some other small holiday sets.

                  That’s still the winter village. I just expanded it this year and that is the new part of town behind the carousel with modern buildings. I haven’t gotten to winterizing those buildings yet.

                    Re: The Lego Thread

                    Just started a Lego Robotics Club for grades 3-5 at the school I teach at. Had 2 loaner WeDo 2.0 kits from a company and a bucket of Legos from the kindergarten teacher.

                    Long story short, I had over 100 kids on Friday. Meeting tomorrow with administration and ordering $3000 worth of Lego WeDo 2.0 kits. Looks like this will kick off nicely. Looking to send a letter to parents asking if they'd donate a ziplock bag of legos to add to our collection as we start this journey.

                    Truth be told, I made a beer tote'n lego robot this weekend! He sits next to my Raspberry Pi robot. Jeez, I'm a head high school baseball coach by day and a creepo robot builder by night. I used to be cool, I promise!

                      Little early but I was in the mood to build a small set. Got this off ebay last week and just put this limited edition snowglobe from last year together. I love it. Really nice. Will look good on display this Christmas.

                          Where is the best place to order online? I want to get a small/inexpensive Winter/Christmas set to put on the mantle, but Amazon doesn't have a great selection.

                              Awesome.

                              Looking through the site I wish Lego would come out with a "Classic" line where they reproduce those awesome sets from the 80s and early 90s.

                                It wouldn’t surprise me to see them do something like this going forward. Those classic castle sets are my favorite because that’s what I grew up with. I actually like LEGO’s themes better then their licensed stuff.

                                I’m sure you can still find those old sets, for 500x the original price.
