Pant...pant...

Out..of...breath...frostbite on fingers...back from dealer...Eddystone in hand...such a long, brutal walk...must soak entire self in daquiri mix...

The review will be forthcoming, but here are a few tidbits, observation-wise:

Smaller than I expected.

More detailed than I expected (even after having been impressed with Paul's pix).

Feared it would look too much like a child's toy. Looks like a bona fide lighthouse to me...albeit it one built by a wacko.

Excellent packaging that protects the piece effectively, but very simply.

Debate will rage on whether or not this is a "Wow!™".

Retailers with open displays will go through a LOT of breakage if they don;t find a way to get this puppy behind glass.

But I like it!
