I’ve been considering buying a LEGO kit for a long time now. I don’t really know why, probably just a desire to get back to my childhood.

LEGO kits are very different now of course. When I was a kid, the LEGO train my dad bought me looked more like this:

Whatever the reason, I’ve been eyeing up various LEGO kits over the last few months. The old Star Destroyer would be perfect but it’s no longer available:

The Ghostbusters car was very high on my list for a long time (and I may get this as a “starter” kit anyway).
