Technic builders are concerned because it is becoming ever more difficult to
get the raw materials for our craft.  Service packs are being withdrawn,
builder sets haven't appeared for years, there are very few technic elements
available in bulk, and now the Technic sets don't contain any Technic
elements.  I think I picked a bad time to get interested in LEGO again.

Everyone probably already knows about this, but I thought I would get this out
here anyway. LEGO Technic elements can easily be obtained by contacting

Great resource for raw elements.

By the way, why doesn't LUGNET just make a BIONICLE category apart from
TECHNIC. This seems obvious to me.

(...) It is a concern that LEGO seams to be doing so many things wrong (not only my opinion, but a reasonable deduction based on their recent financial losses). And I find nothing wrong with people expressing their concerns in this forum. I event (...) (22 years ago, 14-Mar-02, to lugnet.technic)
