Since it's Christmas time I think of that joke: Q. What do toy trains and a womens chest have in common? A. They're originally for the children, but it's the fathers who end up playing with them. With that in mind I wonder if Lego is going the way (...) (21 years ago, 28-Nov-04, to lugnet.lego)

Frankly, it seems like Walmart rarely has prices that are all that low on things like Lego sets. Even Target and others rarely seem to do much on price. Frankly, I've done best with K-Mart and K-B but ONLY when they're running major mark-downs. TRU (...) (21 years ago, 28-Nov-04, to lugnet.market.shopping)

Does anyone happen to know what color the plates are in the Belville # 5943 Designer Interior set are? From the catalog I can't tell whether they are turquoise, light blue or other? There doesn't seem to be an inventory available yet. Thanks. (21 years ago, 28-Nov-04, to lugnet.color, lugnet.belville)

No, because dishwashers heat the water to way past 40 degrees C. Which will inevitably melt your LEGO bricks and probably stuff up your dishwasher. Washing machines that have a cold water cycle and a pillowcase half-full of LEGO are probably your (...) (21 years ago, 27-Nov-04, to lugnet.build)
