(...) set (...) I have to agree with you on the old Prof. They at least changed Pippin's outfit from one theme to the next. I know it is partly due to the context of following one set of adventurers from site to site, but my god I must have 30 (...) (25 years ago, 7-Oct-99, to lugnet.adventurers)

(...) YES! I CAN'T STAND HAVING SO MANY JOHNNY THUNDERS! I *wouldn't* mind if his torso was a little more standard, since it could be used in a lot of places, but he's got a pistol right there! And I don't want Castle peasants or Town shoppers or (...) (25 years ago, 7-Oct-99, to lugnet.adventurers)

(...) Lego has been poor at giving us the masses of common people needed to offset the special ones. I have 20 Witch figures. 15 Cap'n Redbeards. You can only mix and match so much. I've taken to buying heads, torsos, and other bits outside my usual (...) (25 years ago, 7-Oct-99, to lugnet.adventurers)

(...) Hey those are great ideas! I now have to find a bunch of ninja hoods and pirate scarf hats. I hadn't even thought of the Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan bodies. Think of all the people out there shuddering at the thought of using Star Wars toys for other (...) (25 years ago, 7-Oct-99, to lugnet.adventurers)

(...) Yeah, I couldn't stand that... When I got my first Blacktron I sets back in '86 or '87 I had to turn all the heads around backwards so they didn't have the same silly "I'm so happy even if you pull my arms off" look. Actually, I kinda got used (...) (25 years ago, 7-Oct-99, to lugnet.adventurers)

(...) Hooray Bruce! You said it! As far as all those extras go I would suggest using them for trade fodder. Someone like me doesn't even have a single witch or Redbeard, though I wish I did, and might be willing to get you something you need. Mark L (25 years ago, 7-Oct-99, to lugnet.adventurers)

(...) Those were the good old days. A lego was a lego head, and they'd work anywhere. No stupid snarly faces, or snaggle-tooths, or constipated star heroes. Just uniform plastic happiness. :) Steve (25 years ago, 8-Oct-99, to lugnet.adventurers)

(...) I'll second that. Nothing makes me feel more like a happy little kid than a Lego smiley. That's a big reason why the Snowspeeder is my favorite Star Wars set- that smiling rebel. Sure, you could assemble your own, but it's nice to see that (...) (25 years ago, 8-Oct-99, to lugnet.adventurers, lugnet.starwars)

(...) You guys are making me smile now. And poor Dak, smiling blindly only moments before the big squish. Oh well he went out feeling like he could take on the whole Empire himself. And yes Johnny Thunder ought to be smiling too. Mark L (25 years ago, 8-Oct-99, to lugnet.adventurers, lugnet.starwars)
