Ah! yes, I dusted off my BV dollhouse prototype about a week ago. Seeing it again made me eager to build. I've been working on castle models first though, and now I'm stuck with "work" work. But I can take a picture of what I've got.. will try to (...) (25 years ago, 8-Mar-00, to lugnet.belville)

Does anyone have any BV-scale MOCs? Personally I'm devoting my limited resources to castle, but I'd love to see some BV scale stuff. (Suz, you were talking about some MOCs back in the fairy-tale discussion... any pics?) -Shiri (25 years ago, 7-Mar-00, to lugnet.belville)

Hi Brad! Glad you finally came to your senses <grin, duck, run> and realized the potential in the BV sets. I really don't think many of the Belville 'fans' that post here actually buy BV to work in a BV scale. (note - I said many, not all :) I don't (...)

I've often scoffed at LEGO sets aimed at girls. They always seem so cutesy and like the pieces wouldn't fit well with other LEGO models. I remember the Paradisa sets. I thought they were so silly. Now, I would kill for them. Paradisa pieces are VERY (...) (25 years ago, 3-Mar-00, to lugnet.belville, lugnet.town)
