Lego has officially put the new Belville sets in the US catalog. Seems it's a
new line now, no longer part of System.

(...) Good observation. Yes LEGO is dropping the SYSTEM designation for Belville. So now it is LEGO Belville, like LEGO SCALA.

Hi Belville fans, Get a load of this! (URL) at this set, and the pulldown menu - new sets, like the Queen's Chamber, the fairy's house, etc. (The new sets' numbers are 5823 through 5827.) I found this just by clicking the belville link in the (...) (27 years ago, 11-Dec-99, to lugnet.belville)
