Two LEGO Media titles I hadn't heard of before are mentioned as "Coming Soon":
LEGO Action Team and LEGO Stunt Rally. No pictures or other info there...
So while eating my yum-yum cereal, I'll be holding my breath for more of that
amazing LEGO software.             ...heh. right.

The new Euro/Australian catalogue features LEGO Stunt Rally next to the
new "Race" subtheme. I suppose the game features the four new characters. See:

(thanks Ben!)

LEGO Action Team is a new game for PC and Gameboy. In it you "command your own
elite team in a covert operation to stop the fiendish Ogel from using his mind-
control devices to take over the world". See

http://members.fortunecity.com/ben_whytcross/catalogues/2000_2/page6.jpg

for a picture.

There's no mention of whether Ogel has constructed the Terror Robot L-3GO, but
I wouldn't be surprised. The real question is whether this will become a new
theme. Obviously it has heaps of potential -- I think international espionage
will make a nice change from Legoland's usual pattern of crimewaves and
natural disasters. Or are we just going to see a couple of boxes of Mini
Heroes?
