Haven't purchased a Lego set in a decade, but these Speed Champion sets are too cool to pass up:

I love these things!!! And Lego decals are just as crappy as they were 20 years ago....

I keep thinking about picking up one of those to check out, but I'm trying to be good and save up my Lego dollars for the Detective's Office.

Target's recent Lego clearance spurred me to buy a ton of Ultra Agents (and a little Lego Movie) stuff, and the more vehicles I built, the more I wished I was building Modulars. If you guys haven't dipped your toes there, they're worth considering. I started with the Palace Cinema and was just blown away by the techniques used for it. I've gotten two more since then, and they've all be lots of fun. Plus, they're fantastic for displays.

I can't see ever going cold turkey on normal sets, though; I love the minifigures too much.

I have had to scale back what lego sets I buy, but I can't completely shake them. Building is so calming and therapeutic.

I know sometimes I use the excuse that "it increases my parts collection" but really it's an excuse to keep buying. :D
