(...) TTBOMK being... To The Best Of My Knowledge...? ... something I should add to the acro FAQ...? -Shiri btw, MSRP stands for...? (I know what it is, just not the acro). (25 years ago, 4-Mar-00, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Pause DB
 
As promised, scans of new polybags are "en route" (plus some other, Todd ) :) 4811 - on the instruction sheet, it says it's set number 4801/4811 - so I guess a pause entry needs to be added with a note saying that it's the same set. The piece count (...) (25 years ago, 4-Mar-00, to lugnet.admin.database)

(...) I can confirm that I actually had one of these sets in my posession in 1978; I got it in Toronto at a convention my dad was attending. -Cheese (25 years ago, 3-Mar-00, to lugnet.space, lugnet.admin.database)

(...) U.S.) (...) My educated guess is that there were only 4 released in 1978. While I no longer have instructs for 462 Rocket Launcher, I'll take it that it was 1978, because it was the first space set I ever bought (I bought two :) though I could (...)

  Re: Page 7 of Spring S@H catalog
 
(...) Say...on that note... A question for Space historians out there... Which Space sets *were* released in 1978??? For sure, there are these 4: 1. <set:897> Launcher (a.k.a. <set:462> Rocket Launcher in the U.S.) 2. <set:918> Space Transport (...) (25 years ago, 3-Mar-00, to lugnet.space, lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Re: The Mystery of the non existent Hospital
 
(...) Wow, ya-mon, that looks a *lot* like a real set! Even looks like it's got a helicopter landing pad on the roof. Wouldn't it be cool if 626 (a 1978 set) was that helicopter? :-) --Todd (25 years ago, 1-Mar-00, to lugnet.town, lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Re: town jr. scans
 
(...) ok, we'll make some trials, and give you some options... :) btw, we uploaded some pics last night (I think 5 sets?)... just FYI. :) Dan (25 years ago, 1-Mar-00, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Re: town jr. scans
 
(...) Ya, how about a composite, if it's easy to stick them together and they line up nicely, otherwise two separate ones is fine and I'll figure out something. --Todd (25 years ago, 1-Mar-00, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  town jr. scans
 
Well, we finally got our new scanner [1] and wanted to scan some more pics for the pause DB. We came across 6422 - and didn't know what to do. The set comes with two instruction sheets, like most town jr. sets. How should we scan those? a pic of (...) (25 years ago, 1-Mar-00, to lugnet.admin.database)

  1097 and 1099
 
We have scans of 1097 and 1099 which are listed in brickset but not in pause. We've already uploaded a pic of 1099. 1097 will be in the next batch. Here's the info we have right now: #- 1097 name - Res Q Runner Piece - 17 Figs - 1 Date - 1999 same (...) (25 years ago, 27-Feb-00, to lugnet.admin.database)

(...) ^^^...^^^ (...) Durrp, oops, I meant to say, US$129.99 was, TTBOMK, the original MSRP. --Todd (25 years ago, 26-Feb-00, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Re: Differences with Trains
 
(...) Actually, the DB shows $129.99, not $129.00. :-) US$129.00 was, TTBOMK, the original MSRP. (...) This looks like a S@H price in both cases. Anyone know what the original MSRP was for this set? (Probably was $129.99..?) (...) I'm guessing that (...) (25 years ago, 26-Feb-00, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Re: Differences with Trains
 
(...) *Most* of the Pause prices are U.S. MSRP --- suggested prices for retail stores in the USA. S@H is usually around 10% more expensive than local stores except in Hawaii. Some of the Pause prices are U.S. S@H prices, especially for those sets (...) (25 years ago, 26-Feb-00, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Differences with Trains
 
I've noticed a few differences between the train prices on Lugnet and the S@H catalog. Here are a the ones I found: (URL) shows it as $139.00 (US) and Lugnet shows $129.00 (URL) shows it as $149.00 and Lugnet show $144.00 Is this correct or does (...)

  Re: set 1271 Jungle Surprise
 
(...) Rowwwr! (...) Did this set (#1297 -- the U.S. version) just come out recently then? Haven't seen it here yet. Not too many 7-11's here in Boston, though. :-( --Todd (25 years ago, 23-Feb-00, to lugnet.admin.database, lugnet.adventurers)
 
  Re: set 1271 Jungle Surprise
 
(...) Yep, they've got them in Roxboro NC too. Found it at a local Food Lion. I'm not sure about the silver treasure piece. I haven't bought one. Chris <>< "Georgia bound in 2 days" (25 years ago, 23-Feb-00, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Re: set 1271 Jungle Surprise
 
(...) The set is copyright 1999, the treasure piece is actually gold-colored. I'm in Pueblo, Colorado, USA. Found it at 7-11 on the corner of Orman and Northern Avenues, across the street from the Convergys call-center where I work. Today I bought (...)
