Man, I need to get these again....I think I had the middle one back in the day.
Robin Hood is so awesome.

Ah I wonder how much that middle base plate goes for

Bricklink average selling was 48 in the past six months. Average asking is 70.
I've got a bent one somewhere that I'm trying to flatten out, you can have it for cheap. :P

I have “left”! Always wanted the baseplate from “center” though

Going through this haul verifying what's really there. Not exactly complete nor true completely to the original. But I'm sure I've got the pieces to true it up eventually. The real goal is to mod these and modernize them a bit. Not sure exactly what to do yet, but it brings back a lot of memories having these built. Still a pretty great haul!
Had the Forestman’s Crossing since it came out, but probably not all original parts now. I’ve played with design a few times, mostly making the fort and tree bigger. If you were going to modify them, not sure why you bothered getting the originals. I’d just BS something close out of spare parts.
I wanted the mini figs, and wanted to keep things as true to my memories as I could. Plus, now I'll have completed sets if I ever do need to sell them. But you raise a fair point, it could have been done cheaper. This lot wasn't crazy expensive in comparison to what I've been watching.
Well good that the price wasn’t insane. I wanted the Medieval Market Village set, but wasn’t going to pay $300 so I built a close approximation. By no means is it a carbon copy but it’s close enough to make me happy. I had a smallish hoard of loose bricks already from buying bulk a few times over the years so I didn’t have to buy anything new.
Did you get the Castle in the Forest from the bricklink program? That's basically a single set that has parts of all the forestmen sets, with modern techniques.
I wish, I was one of those first hour, but not first 20 minutes sadly.
Yeah, what a bonkers sellout. I'm honestly surprised Lego didn't see that coming.
