Speaking of sentiment, I had the most amazing
Customer Service experience relating to this
set.
Sometime in '97, I went thru most of my old
sets, looking for parts that needed replacing;
one was the apparently-rare 2x3 black plate
with rotor peg for this set. Much to my
amazement, TLG was able to provide me a
replacement for it. Talk about service,
especially for a 20+ year old item!
