(...) To be fair, the LEGO guy said right in his first answer: "Because future launches are confidential, I can't say what will and won't be available in 2001 (yet)." It's not *his* fault that the interviewer then went on to only ask questions about (...) (25 years ago, 24-Feb-00, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) The self-resetting thermal fuse that's part of the HB ought to be just fine (see item F1 on the HB schematics).
