(...) 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)

(...) 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 (...)

(...) I'm guessing this is Adventurers set then? What copyright date is shown on the box? 2000 or 1999? Is the treasure piece really silver colored or is it gold colored? Is it the traditional Amazon-Adventurers medallion? Female fig in a $2.99 (...) (25 years ago, 23-Feb-00, to lugnet.admin.database, lugnet.adventurers)

Craig Dinosaurs ARE my cup of tea and you've ingeniously captured the majesty of these "thunder lizards". I like your imaginative use of parts and colours. Oh and very Stravinskyesque. The stegosaurus is especially inspirational... Henry (25 years ago, 7-Feb-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.adventurers, lugnet.general)

Craig, Proof that you're more than a talented painter! Great use of parts! I especially like the small feathers as tongues...did I supply one of those? Will Visit the Lego Beach Fire and Rescue Service (URL) (25 years ago, 7-Feb-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.adventurers, lugnet.general)
