(...) I am Lebanese and speak Japanese, so I can definitively say that it is neither japanese or arabic :) My first impression is also that the writing is hebrew. --Karim (24 years ago, 3-Aug-00, to lugnet.space, lugnet.town, lugnet.admin.database)

(...) Well, I can confirm it, after several years of Hebrew classes. Of course, that was a long time ago, but I don't imagine the letters have changed all that much. eric (24 years ago, 3-Aug-00, to lugnet.space, lugnet.town, lugnet.admin.database)

(...) yes, it is hebrew (I'm the one who scanned it :), and yes, it's a catalog picture. I'm not sure if I ever saw hebrew printed on a box before, but I'm not sure - I barely ever bought lego in .il... Dan (24 years ago, 3-Aug-00, to lugnet.space, lugnet.town, lugnet.admin.database)

(...) You could be right, it looks like Hebrew, but it's not the packaging. It is a picture from a Lego Catalog. Selçuk (24 years ago, 7-Apr-00, to lugnet.space, lugnet.town, lugnet.admin.database)

(...) LOL! I should have used my brain -- duh -- obviously the Technic angle beam wasn't the new one. (blush) OK, so the 8x8 purple disc is a new purple then? Even more magenta than the purple in Cyber Slam? --Todd (24 years ago, 2-Aug-00, to lugnet.admin.database, lugnet.scala)

(...) I should have clarified, the Technic angle beam is one from the Spider Slayer, I put it in for comparison. I'll have to dig out my DUPLO dinosaurs and check the purple. (24 years ago, 2-Aug-00, to lugnet.admin.database, lugnet.scala)
