Here's an inventory of the 1393 McDonald's Promotional Bionicle set using Peeron numbers and names. This was done from a unopened package so I think I got everything correct. There are a couple problems though. For one, I'm not a Technic OR Bionicle (...) (23 years ago, 19-Sep-01, to lugnet.db.inv, lugnet.admin.database)

I agree with most of the names you chose, but... (...) I would call this "Technic Bionicle Tohunga torso". "Torso" to distinguish it from other body segments that may appear, "Tohunga" to distinguish it from the Toa torso. BTW, great job of finding (...)

I picked up several copies of 4158 yesterday. This set is missing the picture in the lugnet guide. I just dropped the box on my scanner and scanned the box front. What size and image type do you want ? Who do I send it to ? Ray (23 years ago, 6-Sep-01, to lugnet.admin.database)

Just an add-on question to the previous one: Is there any reason that the LUGNET set guide does not link to any inventories?
