		Re: Why not smaller & more affordable for all? was Re: LEGO Factory sets

And then grouping the designs together.... As a town person, I am disappointed that (...) (19 years ago, 21-Jul-05, to lugnet.build.microscale, lugnet.dear-lego, FTX)

		Completing the Lugnet Database....
For what it is worth, I do hope that Lugnet maintains some sort of existence into the future, including the Lugnet database.

		Re: Any 1970's Canadian Lego Catalogs?
