Weird to answer to my own letter...

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

In lugnet.belville, Shiri Dori writes:
The new sets look great, they have (at least) two new characters - the Queen
(she looks like Snow-white's stepmother, complete with a red apple)

The inscription confirms this is indeed a wicked stepmother, they even have
the famous "Mirror Mirror" saying...

and the Fairy-Queen.

In the European catalog she's still a Fairy-Queen, but in the US she's named
Princess Stella.

If she's not a fairy, why's she holding a wand?
Is she Rosaline's sister? Maybe step-sister, coming with the wicked mom?

(I can just imagine a Snow-white/Cinderella storyline...)

The small fairies come in new colors (blue, pink, white), and
there are also striped and white cats (in the fairy's bedroom), a dog (belongs
to the queen), a horse (in the royal coach), more wands, more colors to the
precious stones, new colored flowers, and other cool stuff.

Well, looks like we (or at least I) have something to look forward to...

I guess I *AM* talking to myself here...   :-)

(...) Good observation. Yes LEGO is dropping the SYSTEM designation for Belville. So now it is LEGO Belville, like LEGO SCALA. Todd and I won't be able to reflect that in the database right away, but we are aware of the change and it will be applied (...) (25 years ago, 2-Jan-00, to lugnet.belville)

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 (...) (25 years ago, 11-Dec-99, to lugnet.belville)
