Oh, my!...Fabuland got lost in the shuffle somewhere.  OK, there's now a
Fabuland group:

  lugnet.fabuland  <==>  http://www.lugnet.com/fabuland/

I can't believe nobody noticed!  I *know* there are tons of Fabuland fans out
there!  :)

Thanks Todd,


for making also a Fabuland group. I noticed that you didn't make any when the
rest of the themed groups were made, but as the theme was discontinued
already 10 years ago and there aren't many messages about it (1), I thought you
had left it out on purpose.

Greetings,

Sybrand Bonsma

(1) A search for 'Fabuland' in al groups only showed 145 messages, of which
many are in the market.* groups. So not very many that are really about the
theme.

i had noticed the ommission too, but assumed it was because the theme had been
discontinued. i'm glad it's here now though.

i remember seeing these sets as a kid, but thinking they were too baby-ish for
me, and at 13, model team was where it was at.  now as an adult, i am
completely charmed by the fabuland series, and have gotten my colection off to
a bit of a start. it's fun to collect these days, in a way akin to collecting
fiesta-ware or roseville pottery. ~ as much for aesthetics as for vintage
appeal.  plus, fabuland has great accessories that work in system constructions
as well!

(...) No, it wasn't left out on purpose -- it was just an unfortunate oversight. In fact, Fabuland was listed on this page long ago, (URL) a niche thematic-interest group likely to pop up...it's always been something inevitable. So -- Are there any (...)
