Are there standard features to use so that multiple displays can be shown together?
Should the build feature a single vehicle or can multiple vehicles be used?
Is there a designated size for the habitat?

The LUG certainly has grown in 15 years. Crowkillers had a huge footprint for that show.

I see @juliamorley‘s ship in a REAL bottle, years before LEGO created set 21313. She’s a UPMC ER doc now.

I think the IKEA was built by @dc221803, who showed up in a search just THIS morning when I was looking for an image of LUG Doug. 🙂

The only place that I had enough room left to flesh out a display that is 5 feet wide and 9 feet long is the garage floor. 😜 The gray and green baseplates are placeholders for buildings that I preferred not to move.
