I got this set for a dollar at the LEGO outlet. It's not a terrible deal, especially with all the stylized curved slopes and such that you get. There was also a blue one, which I like a little better. Actually, I would love to see more of these polybagged mini-sets. It seems TLG is heading away from them. No more holiday minis, and the Creator minis are really just an attempt to liquidate all those extra Mr. Magorium's Big Books, I think.
