 | | Does LEGO sell LEGO anymore?
|
| Well, after looking at the latest catalog, World Tour Summer 2001, all I can wonder is: Does Lego make Lego anymore? So what does the new catalog have: · 2 page spread for Bionicle (makes one look at burps with admiration), new train engines (great (...) (25 years ago, 7-Jul-01, to lugnet.general)

| I have jsut parted out 24 copies of set 4776 Dragon Tower from the Duplo Castle series.

Parting out full retail sets just is not feasible. I suspect it will be real soon (...) (21 years ago, 5-Aug-05, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade, FTX)

From my understanding, TLC's goal is to have TWO train lines - one for "adults", and one for "young kids" (to bridge the gap between DUPLO trains and 9V). TLC has (hopefully) learned from its (...)
