(...) Doyle, I'm not a Lego rep, but my guess is that the service packs are indeed going to vanish, but in a much better way than supposed -- they're to be replaced by the new (and hopefully wonderful) bulk-order system being developed right now. (25 years ago, 29-Dec-99, to lugnet.dear-lego)

(...) Yes, I think this is a GREAT set too! It is such a lovely design, although it doesn't have as many "working parts" as 8880. However I think the gull-wing doors more than make up for that. :) I love the way it's so modular. You can take off all (...) (25 years ago, 29-Dec-99, to lugnet.loc.uk)
