  Re: More Data Base Updates
 
(...) Thanks, Frank! --Todd (25 years ago, 12-Jan-00, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Re: Database entries for 135,802,1345,1615,1662,1845,9756
 
(...) It is, yes, thanks -- but I have a question. When you say "from the package" do you mean it was written on the official packaging from LEGO, or do you mean that you hand-counted the elements from a copy of the package? --Todd (25 years ago, 12-Jan-00, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Re: Set 1698 not in database?
 
I don't know about that one, but in a store today, I saw a town city set today that I didn't recognize (I also live in Canada). I couldn't remember the exact number (I think it was in the 6500's), but I looked through every single town listing on (...) (25 years ago, 9-Jan-00, to lugnet.admin.database, lugnet.general)
 
  Set 1698 not in database?
 
I came across a small 1991 basic 3+ set today numbered 1698 which is neither in Pause or on Huw's site. It has english and french writing on the box and looks like a Canada-specific set. 24 pcs, all basic bricks except for eye and smile bricks and a (...)

  Re: New images of Dino sets
 
(...) Christian, I just removed those two sets from the LUGNET sets database since the set numbers are still illegitimate at this point (even though the images you scanned are legitimate). It's too bad the images weren't accompanied by set numbers (...) (25 years ago, 9-Jan-00, to lugnet.adventurers, lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Portable Pause?
 
A request (and please let me know if I'm in the wrong place and/or if this has been discussed previously)... is there a way to download the database, or some subset of it? I envison converting a subset - just items I'd expect to find available (...) (25 years ago, 5-Jan-00, to lugnet.admin.database)

  More Data Base Updates
 
Ok, here's some more updates (many details for 2000 sets): 2965 Hornet Scout, 71 pcs (catalog) 6575 Polar Base, 6 figs (instr) 7124 Flash Speeder, 105 pcs (box) 7144 Slave I, 165 pcs (box) 1 fig (instr) 7115 Gungan TM Patrol, no "The" in the name (...)

  Set 8002
 
Likewise, WM also has a shelf tag for 8002 but no stock... Number: 8002 Name: Destroyer Droid Price: 49.88 (which I suspect translates to a MSRP of 49.99) Ray (25 years ago, 31-Dec-99, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Set 8238
 
The local WM has a shelf slot and tag for 8238, but no stock yet. Info from the Shelf tag is... Number: 8238 Name: 'Dueling Dragsters' Price (WM): $16.97 (which probably means an MSRP of 16.99) (25 years ago, 31-Dec-99, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Set 6086
 
In thinking about cross referencing, I was reminded of this set which has two names. Is there a way to create a reference item somehow so that this set can be found by either name (I guess one way to do it would be to have 6086-1 be "Dungeon (...)

  Data Base Updates
 
Ok, as threatened, here we go... Since I've been collecting these for a while, some of them may already be taken care of, I'll try and re-check as I go. In some cases, I am confirming question marked items, and I have specified the source for each (...) (25 years ago, 31-Dec-99, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Re: Missing Information from Db
 
(...) Oh, it won't be hard to type it in. I think I'll sit down tonight and send it all in. (25 years ago, 30-Dec-99, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Re: Missing Information from Db
 
(...) Well, you could always snailmail a photocopy of the stuff. :) Write me for my address if you'd like to go that route... --Todd (25 years ago, 30-Dec-99, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Re: Unique keys for sets
 
(...) OK, it's in column 9 now (the rightmost). Enjoy. --Todd (25 years ago, 30-Dec-99, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Re: Missing Information from Db
 
I really need to put a post here with all the corrections I have. As I go through cataloging my sets, I check all the Pause data to see if I have any additional data (and not that I have a digital camera, I will probably take a snapshot of the box (...)

  Re: Unique keys for sets
 
(...) Not a scream, just a squeak. Consider 9, as in last and keep it last if you add something else. It has less useful info to most readers and thus should be in the region the eye reads last. (25 years ago, 28-Dec-99, to lugnet.admin.database)
