jjsrt8 Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Like the title says if you could only have one set for your personal collection what set would that be? To make it fun let's also put in what one set would you hold for investment? My choice for personal would be the Emerald Night steam Locomotive. Its my favorite set fun build, great detail, ILOVESTEAMTRAINS, awesome play, Super display piece. My Investment choice is a hard one but I have a hunch about the Haunted House so that's my one choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoNotInsertIntoMouth Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 As much as I absolutely adore my SSD and my Dino Defense HQ set, It would have to be the Falcon 10179 - unfortunately I don't have one right now... yet. My uncle has one and its the most amazing thing I have ever seen. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huskers1236 Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 For personal collection, I would have to say Eiffel Tower right now, maybe Statue of Liberty. Wouldn't mind the VW Beetle as well. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jjsrt8 Posted June 10, 2014 Author Share Posted June 10, 2014 I have to admit owning the very first lego building blocks set would be really awesome. So much history when it was simple, build anything you want from these bricks not what's pictured let your imagination take control. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comicblast Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 I would say the Yoda UCS set, or Tower Bridge. I still aim to grab it to build before it retires!! I also really like the newer Clone Turbo Tank set that retired a few years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrickLegacy Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Imperial Flagship. I love the revolutionary war period and this reminds of the British Empire. I bought two sealed at full resale value this past year. If I would have left the Dark Ages sooner I would probably have a fleet of 30. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also really like the newer Clone Turbo Tank set that retired a few years ago. Both are really nice sets. I love the Yoda I have (scored in on Ebay used for 60$). As for the Tower Bridge, my wife's downstairs theme is Cities are the world, so of course thats down there. Its quite the impressive set.

My uncle has one and its the most amazing thing I have ever seen. At least you get to look at it....Why cant I have a cool uncle? That has got to be the coolest Lego set ever! 10179 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noodlenut Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Either the Green Grocer or the 10179 UCS Falcon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@rtisan Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Tough question! Green Grocer, Imperial Flagship and of course 10179 would be three. I missed all of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lobo1969 Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Oh you guys.... just go old school!A sealed 497 Galaxy Explorer for me. Second choice would be a sealed Black Seas Barracuda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leenoack83 Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 It would have to be 10210 or 10179. Although I do have a soft spot for the original Black Seas Barracuda, which was my favourite set as a kid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MartinP Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 For me, it's a tough choice between the 10179 MF and the Taj Mahal. I have built the MF and it looked amazing, but the Taj Mahal is the largest Lego set with pieces. I guess I would go with the MF. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
