I do have a village, not out yet this year but soon. I enjoy mine, mostly Northpole series with some Thomas Kinkade houses ( same scale) added in. I will be posting some of mine when I get a chance during the holidays. I made and painted my own back drop for it, it really makes it. <BR/>And I agree on the boxes!!
