1. Re: Cool Baseplates - why does Lego no longer make / include them in sets?

   That one is from #5978 Sphinx Secret Surprise. The printing on the edge of the plate looks a bit off if used in a town setting though. ;-)

   Discussion by adventure_al · November 2013 · Home› Buying & Selling Topics

   What's the most you've spent on a large lego lot? Was it a good or bad investment? I ask because I'm in line to spend some serious cash on this lot: I know this isn't the place for valuations but how much would you pay for a lot of the following? Any input advice appreciated.

   I don’t think we will see raised baseplates come back but I do love some of the older ones - #5978 is a good example and one of my favorites. I think the baseplate added to the aesthetic and added some fun play value as well...

   @KingAlanI #6776 #6416 and #5978 all use the same raised baseplate! I have #6776 and #6416, and I'm tempted to rebuild them in each other's colors: Ogel's Command Center in white, pink, and transparent, and Poolside Paradise in black, grey, red, and trans-red. Of course with substitutions for parts I don't have in the…

   Continuing with the Adventurer’s theme I built #5958 Mummy’s Tomb... and #5978 Sphinx Secret Surprise... from the Desert sub theme. These sets are replete with hidden treasure, deadly traps, secret vaults, and excellent play features. I love how each set has a unique way for Pharaoh Hotep to pop out and surprise anyone…
