(...) Supercar? (...) Hopping up my real car is bad enough. Now i have to tweak my lego ones as well? This could get expensive. I realy like the design. Cale (26 years ago, 26-Apr-00, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.build, lugnet.technic)

I just ordered some pneumatics from S@H and Michael is correct that the 5110 set is discontinued and they do still have 5108 pistons. I also got several 5117 compressor pump kits. No mention was made that 5117 would be discontinued. Dave (...) (26 years ago, 26-Apr-00, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics)

Is that price right? $6499? Or should that be, maybe, $64.99...? Just wondering, not criticizing, yah? I don't have a super-car, so I don't count anyhow ;-) -Shiri (26 years ago, 27-Apr-00, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.build, lugnet.technic)

OK - Here we go... (URL) let you look at an overview of all the ZNAPS... By the way.. the motor is the standard 5225 Mini motor that sells for $17.95US at S@H, so you can see what the fuss is over the $19.99US sets that have them and the cool flex (...) (26 years ago, 27-Apr-00, to lugnet.robotics)

There is a 25% off sale on Lego at toysmart.com. There wasn't that much interesting stuff, but it looked like all 1999 SW and Adventurers were included in the sale. Toki (26 years ago, 27-Apr-00, to lugnet.market.shopping)

| | Crossbow with Quiver?

Hi, Would it make sense if a minifig had a quiver but carried a crossbow? I'm sure that's where he'd put his bolts, but the grey crossbow + brown quiver looks awfully strange... Good thing there are brown crossbows available in the new Castle sets (...) (26 years ago, 27-Apr-00, to lugnet.castle)

| | Probable effect of GST on LEGO
|
|
The way I see it, Lego SHOULD decrease in cost by about 10%. This is due to the way the GST is worked: Currently, each set is imported by LA. This is then sold to the retailer with 22% wholesale sales tax. The RRP is then 40% on top of this price. (...) (26 years ago, 27-Apr-00, to lugnet.loc.au)

(...) I think it looks OK... In fact, #4811 (Defense Archer) includes a brown quiver with the soldier. Of course, the crossbows are mounted on a special stand instead of being held... Chris (26 years ago, 27-Apr-00, to lugnet.castle)
