Wow $1300 is a big purchase but if it is sealed and brand new its a good investment but a bit pricey IMHO so personally I would part it out on Bricklink and select US sellers and see if you can get the parts you need to built it, I have done this for a few items that are super rare or difficult to find or just really expensive. Excited for the layout 15 🙂
Awesome! Looking forward to the layout 15. About 1k special obviously it's up to you, but personally I think that doing a live stream of building a lego 12v set and interacting with fans while doing so would make it much better. Getting sealed 7735 seems like a good idea, though it's so expensive that I think getting a copy of that set used in good condition is better option.
I will get 7735 at some point, the listings that have been up lately aren't of the quality that I'd like though (I want all plastic trays, which are hard to find). I'm seeing a lot of people saying Q&A, I'm thinking a live build with Q&A.
Can’t wait to see layout 15. I also wanted to ask you a question as if I remember correctly you had a brand new unused sticker sheet for 7760. Are those hazard stickers on prism holders from it or you salvaged the one that were applied to 1x4 bricks and 1x2 modified bricks that you’ve bought along with other parts with stickers?
Hi! Great question - I have kept the new sticker sheet untouched. The danger stickers on the light prisms are salvaged from other parts, some from 7720 (same danger stickers). I had to cut some to size them correctly for the headlight bricks.
Nice to know that you’ve kept the sticker sheet untouched. Btw I also wanted to ask about stickers on 7727 doors. Did you replaced NS stickers with DB stickers or you bought extra doors with DB stickers on them and swapped them with ones that have NS stickers on them?
Lego should not be kept sealed for ever. Open the box! But then again, why would you buy a sealed set if you open it. Then buy a "cheaper" allready opend set and do that instead. Congrats on getting 1000subs!
The 7735 is great train (and was my gateway to 12v) but it's not worth 1300$ even if it's sealed. Yea, it would be cool to be the one to open it, but when that's done it's not so special anymore. Do a live build and maybe at the same time a QnA as mentioned by @Theultimatefan783 .
