I tried to look at World City on the website, tried to show them to other
people, but the pictures there are still too small.

You can always try! it's only on that page.

you made it sound like you had to wait for *months* ... sometimes I think you
get to the top of the mailing list when you buy something, this catalog came
days after an order arrived. (The one inside that order was "Late Summer" with
robobots on the cover.)

Umm...that's weird. You mean they show all those sets on the cover of the
magazine?

Well in a way I did have to wait for months. Here in Canada, we don't get Spring
and Fall catalogs. We get the January, Summer and Holiday, so basically I have
been waiting for a catalog since the beginning of the year.

it's just three sets making a cameo.

Sometimes when I receive orders I notice that they alter the catalog a bit. For
instance, the Duplo pages go in or out, or the "Save a little when you buy 5 of
the little sets" page, or even whole System theme spreads take a nap. Too much
to fit in.
On page 26 the catalog says Guarded Inn was designed by a fan... wow, Daniel!
King Leo's castle is back (pg 27) sort of like they brought back the Royal
Knights Castle one season.. except it's not the holidays.

LOL! I saw that the two large Technic sets (Backhoe Loader and Rescue Truck) are
cheaper. Does that mean that you have to use the catalogue code to code those
prices?

Guarded Inn is an old set which has been brought back as a Legend. I think you
are talking about the Blacksmith Shop. Why would the bring King Leo's Castle
back? That doesn't even look as a castle. Lego should bring back some older
castles as Legends.

No, the catalog really says Guarded Inn was designed by a fan on p.27! I know
it's not and you know it's not, but, the catalogs are edited by parents of small
children who are bewildered at the variety of Lego products and say the
darnedest things in print. Example: "King Leo rules all the known world from
this amazing castle! First released in 2000, [this] is a favorite with LEGO fans
of all ages!" Double silly.
These probably turned up in a warehouse. When 6090 made a brief reappearance it
was just a small quantity. Besides, parents look for the castle with princesses
and stuff.
