I don't normally like whining about menial stuff like this and respect Stern and Mezel Mods for the businesses they are running but this is a total CROCK OF SHIT!!! We have been patiently waiting for the firehouse mod to come out for months and to be forced to pay more money and buy more crap for the machine that we don't want in the first place is ridiculous!
The kit idea is not a bad one for those that want everything, but I am not one of those people that loads my games up with a ton of toys or mods that the games weren't originally designed with in the first place. I don't like the clutter.
But the firehouse was a very nice aesthetic improvement to the stock facade in the game and I think they would sell plenty of them if offered separately. $99 was a fair price - I have no qualms with that and would gladly pay it for the firehouse alone.

Stern/Mezel Mods - if you're reading, please consider this option - it would be great if you could offer a slightly different version of the firehouse without the GB sign up top (it's redundant to the one on the bottom anyways) and even take off the white GB banner as well if you want and then offer it separately. It gives people that want that stuff an incentive to buy the kit version but it also gives those of us a chance to purchase it without other stuff we don't want. It's a win-win for you.
Just please give us an option to buy the firehouse alone.
