I got one of these the other day:
This must be one of my favorite sets. It was a good price and it's a cool design, with a nice amount of pieces.
At the moment, it's being attacked by a war of the worlds walker 
EDIT: Like this.

That's one lovely set! I'm so going to get this.
Looks like an awesome set, Topit. Next time I have some money for LEGO I'll buy it, it looks great.

For some reason, I look at that light house, and the first thing to pop into my head is The Game. 
Anyway, that's a cool set, I like that you're having aliens attack it. Scifi seems like your thing.
I like how you put the "Minifigures" space alien head on the Conquest guy.
Cool water. Need a better sky background though.
Just ordered it.
This is a little weird but I just did, too.

How much were those baseplate-packs?
Because if you bought them on Amazon, you probably could have gone a lot cheaper by using BrickLink.
Actually, no. It is more exspensive on Bricklink (at least in the USA. I'm not allowed to buy outside of the US). On Amazon, the baseplate pack is roughly $25. It's a pretty good deal. The grey baseplate alone at Legoshop.com is $15, and the smaller ones are $5. I'm not sure how much this is in your currency (Euro?), but there are currency translators out there.

Guys you are probably going to think that I'm some kind of weirdo but: THIS IS NOT SOME SORT OF PRANK.......this was the last LEGO item I got. Please understand this is not a joke.
I wonder if were in The Twilight Zone(?)
I wonder if we're in The Twilight Zone(?)

Hey, it's a good deal, great set, especially for newer brickfilmers, it will last and see a lot of use. Worth getting.
Dang! Who has that kind of money?

Him, apparently.
I envy you, Brickio.

That pet shop is so lovely.
@MW: Yep, seems like the big baseplate is the one that makes it worthwhile. But for the regular-sized big ones, you can get one for 5 bucks.
Very cool. I really like the airport set. I think the door and steps are quite cool also.
Wow.
I am jealous that you guys get that much pocket money or whatever.
I didn't even get pocket money when I was younger. 
But now I work, and I'm earning some nice cash. I might, just might, invest in some LEGO.
About 60% of it. My sister and Auntie brought it at a boot fair for £6, but there's a lot missing and no mini figures. The main bottom bit's there, so today I'm going to completely disassemble it and tick off the pieces that are there on the brick list in the back of the instructions. Then I'll find what I need, look through my collection, then order the rest of the bits off brick link. My cousin also has this but he smashed it up ages ago, perhaps I could buy the figures off him though, or get a keyring and cut the chain off.
I've always wanted this set but the new one is very expensive, and this one also sells for the best part of £100 too. So this is going to be my little project for a while, even if I have to spend £40 on bricks it's worth it.
I just got Witch Doctor from ToysRus a few days ago:
He's the tallest Lego set I have. He has a pretty flimsy torso construction, and the legs and arms are pretty hard to move. At least it comes with TWO of those skull things!
Received it for my birthday. 
Edit: This just arrived :
