 | | Trading Minifigs...
|
|
Is it me, or does it suck to trade minifigs? I'm lining up a trade right now, and collecting figs to trade is pure torture. Call me weird, but looking at their smiling faces and knowing that I'm in a sense betraying them is almost too much to bear. (...) (26 years ago, 10-Aug-00, to lugnet.general)

(...) Hi Ross and welcome! I think Dave answered everything quite well. What area are you from? If you're thinking of sticking around on lugnet you might want to consider filling out a roll-call. Just search for roll call in loc.au, copy someone (...) (26 years ago, 10-Aug-00, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.org.au)

David, Thanks for the info!! I'm mostly looking for Technics type stuff - its a bummer that supplement sets arent available anymore. What's Lego Direct? Is that just a US thing? Is it likely to come to Oz anytime soon? Now that I've re-found all my (...) (26 years ago, 10-Aug-00, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.org.au)

G'day, Well, there's at least one person out your way, but he doesn't usually appear on lugnet till late at night, so he probably won't reply to this till tonight/tomorrow night. The next LegOz in Melbourne is LegOz 2000.8 on October 8.[unless the (...) (26 years ago, 10-Aug-00, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.org.au)

(...) The push train is what I meant, I'm glad it's there. It has the only carriage that "matches" the now old range. The new ones appear wider in the tray, but it's the same track so they'll all be compatible. (...) Well if you can tell it's a door (...) (26 years ago, 10-Aug-00, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.org.au)
