I have this train set

Did anyone have those Lego Studios set? it was a line where you can shoot your own Lego movies. I remember I so wanted that Spiderman studio set back then but it was so darn expensive.

The YVR station model was built in 2009, so you're 3 years too late. :)

It's ridiculous - discontinued Batman sets are extremely expensive on the secondary market, including your Tumbler! I've seen brand new ones sell for US$600 (retail price: US$50)

Hmm, for such a large scale model, that's pretty bad... they've built much better looking Volvos, F1 cars, etc.

Yeah that Lightning McQueen model is pretty good!
