Sounds more like they are talking about 1076, or whatever the 99 Advent Calendar # is, that has more Santa minifigs than 1298 (the 98 Advent Calendar, only now released in the US for 99).

Are we all talking about 1298??? the two that we have been opening in the Pieniazek household: - are tracking each other set for set 100% so far, and that's 19 tries. - tracked what Thomas posted 100% until he stopped.

The tires you are describing appear to be very simular to the tires on the 5533 Red Fury. These are the same tires just w/different hubs that came w/the 8880. The hubs for the 8880 have the inside rim for the special collar for the all wheel drive. (...) (25 years ago, 19-Dec-99, to lugnet.build)

Hi! I want to get some big tires, about the size of the tires on the Model Team #5571 Black Cat Truck. On Auczilla, I saw there are some <White 5x5 Technic Hubs w/ "68.8x40 Q" Tires>. Can someone tell me from what set they come, so I can check if (...) (25 years ago, 19-Dec-99, to lugnet.build)
