Hello everyone! I have reciently started getting into Lego's for a personal collection. Growing up and still to this day I have been collecting all sorts of toys. I started collecting Hot Wheels when I was younger but recently sold all of them. Over the past few months I have started to collect Lego sets. I am mainly into the Lego City / Lego Creator sets. I was extremely excited when I came across this site, which has a ton of information. I don't have many sets at the moment as I have just started but what I do have is: TMNT 79103-1 Turtle Lair Attack 79104 The Shellraiser Street Chase Lego City 3367 Space Shuttle 4433 Dirt Bike Transporter 4206 Recycling Truck 4435 Car and Caravan 4428 Lego City Advent Calendar Lego Creator 5770 Lighthouse Island 5766 Log Cabin 5763 Dune Hopper 10222 Winter Village Post Office Since this is a personal collection and I am building each set, what advice do you other Lego Guru's have for someone like me? Should I keep my box's and instruction manuals? Which sets do you recommend for me since I am into the town/city theme? Is it worth purchasing older models that are used instead of new since I remove them from the box anyways? What is a good place to get bulk bricks for building custom sets? Thank you in advance and I am excited to meet others who share the same interest! -Heath
