Just got in my first big boy Lego set. I always eye these things in the store, in the catalog, online, but never pull the trigger due to just how pricey they are. And then there is plenty of regret when it disappears and the price has tripled on ebay. I've done some studying and research and decided on this one:



Although I REALLY wanted the Maersk Ship (already gone) and the Maersk Train (still around), I decided on this entry in the modular series. I have long missed out on the Cafe Corner and Green Grocer, and those prices are ridiculous on eBay. I found out that Lego puts out one new entry in the modular series each year. And eventually the oldest one disappears for good and you are left to the secondary market to get them. Well the Fire House is the oldest right now, so I decided to go ahead and drop the coin and get it before I can't anymore. The Maersk Train will be next, followed by the Grand Emporium.

It feels real good to add this one to my collection. Now I just need to put together and appropriate work bench to work on Lego builds, and other geek miscellany (taking photos, doing dios, custom work, repairs, etc).
