“Set #1790 Shark Fisherman: LEGO really pushed that classic Shark piece in the old days. This little model is a part of value pack #1721 and thankfully so, if it had been sold on its own the money value for it would definitely score a lot lower. That being said it's a fun... More little addition to the other models from that value pack.”
