I always just tell them it's for my girls. So far no one has wondered why they like pirate ships and castles so much.

It can be very interesting to see adults and kids reactions  ;D

I was going to pick up a big big box of Stecks from a teenager. I had to talk to him over the course of a month or so as he thought I was so weird I must be dangerous. He even had me talk to his parents to check me out. When I finally went to pick up the box and I started sorting it and saying "oh this is from set 3666 and this is from etc....." he really started to show signs of concern, and he backed away from me  :lol: It helped in the financial negotiations though  ;)

Are you really selling these treasures? I could use about a dozen of each set and even then I would want more for dioramas and play.

....but we can use our knowledge to get the sets for a good price. the museum is built out of many steck parts which are not really special. what´s making it special are the signs. i just finished the steck gasthaus and the only thing i bought overpriced was the sign.



I agree with you Skywalker! I often thought of getting just the signs, arches and roof for the museum, or any house for that matter. All houses are easy to reproduce from basic simple steck parts, and I have no interest in paying 150 or so euros for a single house, no matter how original it is. I dod once an regreted it so much... all the wall pieces were yellowed and the conection points very loose.... just not worth it...

I agree . I paid 180 euros or so for a complete 3449 Museum and i had almost all the parts fro it except the signs ( and i am not itnerested in the modern day sign map ) , one can get really smart and with far less money make the steck original hosues , something i even managed to learn and did with the 3445 set . Signs for steck hosuers can be pricey ranging usually 18-24 euros but still its a great save unless someone is looking for MISB,MIB sets ....
:knight: Steck is Holy . Bring back more steck sets and its guardians , the Nuremberg Guards :knight:

playmo: Thx. 236€

Wesley : Thx. in my case it´s like : oh it´s for your kid. great  - how old is he ? - eh 11months - quiet  :P

Wolf / George : the museum is complicated in 2 ways it has so many different signs and it is very rare. on the other hand i think it´s just nice to have when you place it in a modern theme because in a medieval world what do you want with a museum ? so you pay a lot of money for something you might not need. i like the outfit of the museum house very much and i bought a 4300 train station. you can get one sometimes cheap and there are most of the parts you need

 . the walls and the nice roof. as i don´t need the museum signs i reproduced the house - it´s in the port royal diorama on the right - and that was it. i also found out when you have most of the medieval houses you start building your own creations like 2 or 3 floor medieval steck houses and then you need steck...
