Great Job . Is your son addicted to them now?

These are great training tools for following directions.

My nephews learned A Lot.
Me , I don't Need no Stinking Instruction's

I bought some of the old kits like that several years ago from brickset.

My Nephews would come over and build the new sets and I got addicted.

They grew up before I got them building ones like that in your 1st picture.

I think about 2016 they were to big to come over and play Lego's any more.

I still have several sets.
They are in unopen boxes .

Set 42008, 42009 and 42043 are just a few.
Of course I bought them for my Nephews

Also, I don't know why there is a set in there called the Yellow Submarine.

To me that looks like overkill trailer and tractor for the size of the load , or the picture is deceiving.
But sure is impressive .

Looks like your neighbor was lucky they didn't lose part of the house too.

Sad to say but in this day and age entirely believable for sure.
