  Whats the deal with blasters?
 
Ok, can someone please tell me what the big deal is with blasters for stormtroopers? This better not be the reason for the stormtrooper not being made.

  TLC or TLG?
 
I have always used the acronym TLG for "The Lego Group" but now I see people are using "TLC". Isn´t that a music group? They made "Waterfalls" and "No Scrubs" :-) Is it some demand from TLG/TLC that we use TLC instead? And what does it mean? (25 years ago, 11-Dec-99, to lugnet.general)
