How about 262 pieces less for $10 more.
I want to say historically (at least recent history) the electric components raise the price for sets up...
I collect all the houses, so I'll get it eventually of course. But not wild about the $70 price tag. No baseplates either...
I understand those prices are inflated, and that PAB orders are hand-picked, but a 32x32 baseplate is only $4.99 via [email protected]
I'm thinking that 4x plate 16x16 costs more to produce than a single 32x32 baseplate.
I like the look of the 16x16 plate better - but it does cause difficulty connecting a pre-2011 creator house (like the beach house) with a 2011 creator set (like the lighthouse).
^^ Good info. I guess I never looked at how much the plates cost.
@Yellowcastle - Although I'm not a collector of the creator houses myself, I do "curate" the town layout for my niece. It's a collection of Creator and Paradisa sets - all on baseplates. I, too, would have preferred to see them stick to baseplates with the creator series.
Take the Apple Tree for instance, I still don't understand the 2x16x32 but they do come in handy as they are a brighter green good for 'parklands' etc but I always put them on the old trusty 32x32 and and some "fill" :D
Incidently - the Lighthouse is $69-$79 here.
