(...) Pete: Thanks for the info. Some of the names of these sets sound really great to me (5838, 5842, 5850) and raise my expectations that there will be some really keen new parts (or at least colors) included. The names also make it sound like (...) (23 years ago, 7-Jan-02, to lugnet.belville)

(...) The "tea party" sets are quite nice. A decent supply of transparent bricks are provided. The base bricks are bright green which is fine by me. The mat in 5834 is actually fabric. The thing I'm most bummed about though is that the tea cups are (...) (23 years ago, 4-Jan-02, to lugnet.belville)

One of the things that I really dig about the Belville Fairy Tale sets is the way the instructions picture the figures from the set actually putting it together. For those of you that have never seen these instructions, unlike the regular (...) (23 years ago, 3-Jan-02, to lugnet.belville)

(...) Where have you seen this evidence? I have been watching the news groups, Web and Lugnet sites and, so far, have seen nothing. Of course, most fans act as if the only sets that really exist are the mini-fig based sets and Technic. If you know (...) (23 years ago, 3-Jan-02, to lugnet.belville)

(...) <snipped> Don't panic yet, I have seen evidence of six new Belville sets for this year. Of course, they may not be available in all markets. Grahame (23 years ago, 3-Jan-02, to lugnet.belville)

In looking through the new January, 2002 S@H catalog I see that the Belville offerings are down to two small sets - one each from the Fairy Tale and Beach themes. The sets are 5831 Adventurous Puppies on pg. 41 in the "More Cool Favorites for LEGO (...) (23 years ago, 2-Jan-02, to lugnet.belville, lugnet.general)
