T205 is it for me. But if you notice that when the 205 set is added to the category it is the first listed. Either you love'em or dislike'em

Strictly eye appeal?

One set to rule them all.
 

1909 Obak has long been the most pleasing set to my eyes.

This thread was only a year and a half old. :)

Man, how time flies when collecting. 2012 already.

2012....2016.....they start running together after so many years.
