		Re: Classic Contest Entries
(...) for the most part. For example, the engines. It looks like there's TONS of them, but it's really only two big ones and four little ones. Not an unreasonable amount of similar specialty parts at all. Love the overall look. It's what the 1593 (...) (24 years ago, 3-Nov-00, to lugnet.build.contests, lugnet.space)

(...) Someone who's a die-hard Space collector (like me, (...) Thanks for your concerns, Todd. Luckily, I'm a jaded lump of apathy in my old age, so no postings like that will ever give me that childlike jolt of hope (I'm not proud of this, either), (...)

		Shell set part counts now available (Was: Shell Sets available)
(...) Found in East Windsor, CT: 2554, 2556, 2543 (UFO Zipper), and a medium-sized Belville set (forgot number). The attendant said "lots more are coming in." Something worth pointing out: since these are new Americanized boxes, there are now (...) (24 years ago, 7-Nov-00, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)

		New Space building contest entries
I hereby submit a link to some designs for the Space Contest by my online buddy Wes Janson, who has had prior difficulty posting his own messages in Lugnet. He can read any feedback viewers might have, however, and welcomes them. (URL) (jot and (...) (24 years ago, 9-Nov-00, to lugnet.build.contests)

		Re: Lego To Close Molding, Processing at Enfield, CT plant
(...) I doubt it. LDMI (Lego Direct Marketing), the main distribution warehouse, is still in East Windsor, CT (about three miles from me, actually). Some of the blocks may have originated from Enfield, but much of them are tride-and-true Danish (...) (24 years ago, 29-Nov-00, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general)

		Re: Deploy the fleet! Classic Space Entrie(s)

The ship is great...I love the tailfins!! --Dave (jot and jab) (...) (24 years ago, 29-Nov-00, to lugnet.build.contests, lugnet.space)

		New LOM sets info (Was: New Life on Mars Multi-pack)
(...) Found this Value Pack (Item number 78777, called "Alien Discovery") at Zany Brainy in Manchester, CT. Question: Where does one acquire 7302 and 7303? Are they the same sets I found in a Quaker Oatmeal Giveaway? I ahven't gotten them yet...I (...) (24 years ago, 3-Jan-01, to lugnet.market.shopping)

		Re: New LOM sets info (Was: New Life on Mars Multi-pack)
(...) I'll have to check out the box again at home. Poke around your local markets and see if there's any Quaker boxes with Life on Mars logos prominently printed on them. In the meantime, you can start by getting your kids to gobble any flavor (...) (24 years ago, 4-Jan-01, to lugnet.market.shopping)

		Re: Another new Martian set
(...) I found one of these in a Zany Brainy last month, too. Someone needs to get a scan to Todd. I'm obviously too lazy to do it, or he'd have had it by now. I also haven't really been too inspired to go to the trouble, since no one reposded to my (...) (24 years ago, 19-Jan-01, to lugnet.year.2001)

		SeriousCollector.com going offline
Hello, I'm sure those who are most interested were contacted directly by the site (such as I was), but in case anyone got left out of the know, one of the secondary auction sites we knew and loved is currently circling the drain.com.

		Re: Wedding Date Announcement

		Good for the soul...
Here's a link I found on boingboing.net to a site featuring "really cool watercolor paintings of simple Lego structures." I found the paintings to be good for my soul. They were comforting, if...lonely, perhaps. There's a dream-like aura about the (...) (24 years ago, 21-Feb-01, to lugnet.general)

		Re: 1593 building challenge (was: Re: 1593 box photos!)
(...) I actually did this last year, and sold the pieces, orig. manuals, and a color printout for the 1593 as a lot on ebay. Got maybe $100 for it (eh). Anyway, there are precisely four pieces left over, most notably the two 4x5x3 inverted slopes. (...) (24 years ago, 12-Mar-01, to lugnet.admin.database, lugnet.space)

		Re: 1593 box photos! (was: Re: you guys noticed this auction? - Wow!)
(...) I was going to make a 1594 Space Station using the parts from 6930 and 6890, and post "scans" for April Fools. So much for that joke. Besides, the hate that I would have received would be...staggering? --Dave (jot and jab) xxx...xxx (24 years ago, 12-Mar-01, to lugnet.loc.uk, lugnet.market.auction, lugnet.admin.database)

(...) John's the king...he got the sealed 6806 and 6807, too, I believe. He would have been able to get it for $1200 or so (about five bucks over my max) were it not for some no-namer who dropped a $2222 bid at the last minute. John's original bid (...)

		Re: The Refocusing of LEGO
Old good, new bad. The rest is blah-blahs. I agree with all of it, of course. Aside: They'll never bring back the old expensive box styles. One reason 90-piece System sets are still ten bucks (the same price as in the 70s and 80s....Lego deserves (...) (24 years ago, 14-Mar-01, to lugnet.dear-lego)
