  Re: eBuisness Model
 
(...) I won't quote your novel here, (instead I'll write my own! :-) but I think that you are wrong. TLC *could* put together thousands of different sets. Your error comes in thinking that the customer designed sets will be put together with the (...) (24 years ago, 10-Dec-00, to lugnet.dear-lego)
 
  Re: 1 of 3 FULL-SIZE Lego Darth Vader's available!
 
(...) Well, If there are only three, and one is at 5th Avenue FAO in NYC, then we only need to find one more: (URL) seriously, seriously doubt that there are only three of these in the whole world. FAO Schwartz might only have three of these to (...) (24 years ago, 10-Dec-00, to lugnet.starwars)

  TIE Interceptor, brief but slobbery review
 
Hey all, I was finally able to acquire this set in a trade and I think it is the best SW set so far. Unlike the X-Wing, the color scheme is uncluttered with little specks of green and red. Just the sinister beauty of dark gray and black with blue (...) (24 years ago, 10-Dec-00, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: Hypothetically Speaking...
 
(...) The major drawback to going smaller is that, if you scale back to 6 wide, you will alienate the minifig. They would become almost 7 feet tall (Remember, 4 wide is HO scale; 6 wide isn't much larger than that). But speaking of scaling back, O (...) (24 years ago, 10-Dec-00, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: Hypothetically Speaking...
 
(...) No, because one will have the choice of 4' or 60cm curves (IIRC, they are 60 cm, too lazy to find the box for my 7710 to check) So, it will only matter to people like me who have fixed room layouts, and event then, not all that much, because (...) (24 years ago, 10-Dec-00, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: 1 of 3 FULL-SIZE Lego Darth Vader's available!
 
(...) I checked it out. I quote: "Will be shipped to you directly from manufacturer". While I doubt thousands of people will be standing in line to buy it, it does seem like there are many of them for sale. Lego must be making thousands off each one (...)

  Re: 1 of 3 FULL-SIZE Lego Darth Vader's available!
 
(...) I really don't understand that. By reading it, it sounds like they have a whole bunch of them. When I talked to a lady about this Lego she said there were 3 in the entire world. I know there is one at the 5th Avenue FAO in New York. Either (...) (24 years ago, 10-Dec-00, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: Hypothetically Speaking...
 
(...) Larry's all wet with his 1/3 this and 1/3 that blah blah. 8 wide trains are just that-- 2 studs wider than your trains-- that's all. Why ever would you think you'd need to increase the size of a huge layout like yours by a third???? But you (...) (24 years ago, 10-Dec-00, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: Hypothetically Speaking...
 
In lugn (...) Because no one else even comes _close_ to the price that Lego have for a 1/4"-1/2" model range. Old Hornby O goes for astronomical prices, new Lionel is just about as bad! (I mean, the current production hudsons are $500 USD...not in (...) (24 years ago, 10-Dec-00, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: Hypothetically Speaking...
 
(...) Not at all. (...) Never said that. (...) This "funny math" needs to be dispelled right now. True, it is 1/3 wider, but length is arbitrary according to how much you want to compress (even I compress BION). And height remains the same (I just (...) (24 years ago, 10-Dec-00, to lugnet.trains)

  Re: Hypothetically Speaking...
 
(...) This is my whole point! Are people happy with TLC producing "toy" trains, or would people like to see a move on the part of TLC to go to the next level of detail and sophistication in the trains theme! I hear a lot of people saying that they (...) (24 years ago, 10-Dec-00, to lugnet.trains)

  Re: Hypothetically Speaking...
 
(...) I think that you can't have it both ways. MOCs IMO will always look bigger (and better) than TLC offerings, mainly because we are not limited by some imaginary price point TLC set designers are. So having the 2 side by side will always not be (...) (24 years ago, 10-Dec-00, to lugnet.trains)
