I thought I'd share some better quality pics of my city, since my first post got so popular!

Finally got a house and the space to display my childhood collection that has been sitting in my parents’ house for some years. Putting them back together to display really takes me down memory lane.

I combined 3 sets together with maybe an extra 20 bricks and was able to pull this together using:

• 6259 Imperial Guards Broadside Brig

• 6263 Imperial Outpost

• 6277 Imperial Trading Post

Items of note are the lockup within the fortress, fortified defenses at the entrance to the fortress, and a warehouse lockup down by the docks (careful about storing your inventory here, I heard that some pirates know a sneaky way in and out.

I'm super happy with how it all turned out and I'm especially glad that both baseplates look good separate too. I'd like to get my hands on some more vintage sets from this line and expand the docks/rocky section as I still have another blue 16x32 baseplate.

Found in the attic

Any of these special or rare? I’m confused with the kraata rarity

Anyone remember this set? Got it with tokens/cash from weetabix, built it loads of times as not much LEGO sets when was a kid but always thought it was a bit naff considering the essentials of a house were split between the semi detected. So I thought I'd bring it into the modern era keeping the same color theme and giving it a back, opens up like a dollhouse. Built free hand so with whatever bricks I have. Most of original set survives except the glass pains

Just finished building the dark blue spaceman!

I had gotten this awhile back, but was just able to get it back from where it was.

I present to you set 435 Tipper Truck.

It has all the parts, instructions and catalog.

I had this set when I was a kid, but this one did not make it to the present day.

I was just putting 3 boxes of Lego up for sale.
But the dude asking about the sale, out of all the pictures and different sets.
Only wanted closeups and top of this yellow and lime 2x4.
Are they special in anyways? He just said he needed them, so he's gonna buy the whole thing.
