For those of you who have purchased one of my CDs in the past, the new expanded
(now includes 1980s and into the 1990s) LEGO DVD (Unofficial LEGO Sets/Parts
Collectors Guide (1949-90s) is now available for purchase.  For those folks
waiting a long time on your orders... they're going out this week.

The new DVD has 2,800 pages (compared to the 1,000 page CD guide of 5 years
ago).

It is still both PC and MAC compatible.

There are now a total of 77 chapters and appendices in the new greatly expanded
DVD (the 2007 CD had 45 chapters).  Even some of the older chapters have doubled
in size.  The 1949-53 Automatic Binding Bricks, and 1953-60 LEGO Mursten
chapters have been completely rewritten with a picture of just about every rare
LEGO item imaginable (way more than the 2007 version).  Also included is an
insurance price guide (in dollars AND Euros) with 10,157 different prices for
older (1949-80) sets, which unlike modern sets, may not come up for sale or
auction very often (if ever).

There are items in this collectors guide that even the folks in Billund have no
records of in their archives.  Also, the Billund Archives was very helpful in
getting me some images that were just not available on the secondary market.
There are over 6,000 images in the guide, many historic ones.  And there are
some items that have never been seen elsewhere (such as classic LEGO
windows/doors in green, blue, dark blue and yellow).  Besides Set chapters,
there are chapters on old parts, old catalogs, the evolution of LEGO
instructions, LEGO box artwork, LEGO idea books, retailer display items,
retailer display models, retailer catalogs, toy fairs, model shops, a chapter on
the history of LEGO sales by country.... LEGO clones, LEGO counterfeit parts,
LEGO logos thru the decades, LEGO plastics (ABS & Cellulose Acetate), LEGO
department store catalogs, etc... it's in there!

Shipping to USA is $2, to Canada $2.50, to rest of world $3.00.

LEGO DVD $29.95

Now available via my Bricklink store...
http://www.bricklink.com/store.asp?p=istokg&itemID=32384933

Or for those without a Bricklink account... directly thru Paypal (my Paypal ID
is istokg@earthlink.net).

Total for USA = $31.95, Total for Canada = $32.45, Total for rest of world =
$32.95.

NOTE: this is my final CD/DVD... no more future editions... it's all in here!
All more current LEGO items are well identified in Lugnet, Peeron, Bricklink and
Brickset, so there's no need for another DVD expansion in the future.

Cheers,
Gary Istok

Forgot to mention... discount group rates are available for LUGs that may want LEGO DVD copies for their members. There are several chapters related to trains... blue track era trains (1966-79), gray track era trains (1980-92), service packs and (...) (12 years ago, 21-Apr-12, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)
