(...) Even if the person who buys them has internet access doesn't mean you do. It would be a bit crap if as a kid your online grandma ordered it for you and then you had no instructions! Tim (19 years ago, 16-Jul-05, to lugnet.build.microscale, FTX)

(...) Yup! As pointed out on LEGOFan, the sets form a size progression so there can be different price points, the third one is the biggest. (...) I agree. I would rather see names. Perhaps LEGO was thinking some were underage and wanted to keep (...) (19 years ago, 16-Jul-05, to lugnet.build.microscale)

(...) In my freelance period for LEGO I was able to see the winning models and the preliminary packagings. Of what I've seen the real names will also be included on the packaging, but on the backside. In the contract that all participants have (...) (19 years ago, 16-Jul-05, to lugnet.build.microscale)

(...) Thank you very much Brian. It was a fun little MOC, and I must say, I am pretty fond of anvils myself. (Other hobbies of mine include perennial gardening and occupational folklore. So naturally the two mix and my garden is adorned with a few (...) (19 years ago, 16-Jul-05, to lugnet.build.vignette)

(...) WooHoo!... but...what if someone gets these & doesn't have internet access (the boxes say the instructions will only be online)? Or will the sets only be an online Shop@home exclusive? These sets are too good to be limited to catalog or online (...) (19 years ago, 16-Jul-05, to lugnet.build.microscale, FTX)

(...) Indeed! Congrats to all the winners! If you look closely, all the winners and the name of their entries are identified in orange titles on the boxes near their model. I hope that is also done on the final sets, but I would prefer their real (...) (19 years ago, 16-Jul-05, to lugnet.build.microscale)

I gotta agree with the good Rev. here ... there's something inherently funny about a falling anvil and Janey that is a beautiful little anvil. I liked this vig a lot. Brian Darrow "The Rev.

(...) Nod. (...) I think it's more than 3... each set seems to be an agglomeration of several of teh winning entries, for example one set has both the monorail city slice AND the Statue of Liberty model... I think that's pretty cool! (19 years ago, 16-Jul-05, to lugnet.build.microscale)

(...) Thank you. (...) You have a very good point there, not really sure why I went with the string. Maybe I should have just mounted it from the side, so when viewing it from the front you can't see how it's attached. Janey "Red Brick" (19 years ago, 16-Jul-05, to lugnet.build.vignette, FTX)

(...) You could swap out any male figure for Joe, and it would still be true. :) Is there an open hole there he's about to step into? From the caption I would assume so, but I cant tell if it's a hole or a black 1x2 plate. --Ry (19 years ago, 15-Jul-05, to lugnet.build.vignette, FTX)

(...) I agree! What Dave says. I need to get me some of those sets 'cos they're cool plus it looks like they're chocked full of good parts too. That means at least two of each, one set to build and one or more sets to "use". JB (19 years ago, 15-Jul-05, to lugnet.build.microscale)

(...) In a word awesome!!! Although I consider most sets as bulk packs now a days, these I may have to build. Unlike most sets, these have interesting building techniques, great parts and subjects that caught my imagination. I look forward to (...) (19 years ago, 15-Jul-05, to lugnet.build.microscale, FTX)

Hey all, Somehow this one seems to have snuck under the radar. (URL) Jake is showing the microscale sets from the LEGO Factory contest winners on his blog.> There will be three sets. No prices listed as of yet. Bruce (19 years ago, 15-Jul-05, to lugnet.build.microscale, lugnet.announce, FTX) !!

Gotta love any MOC that includes a falling anvil. Nice work. My only nitpick is that it might look better to use something other than the black string to have the anvil "falling". It almost looks like the coyote tried to drop the anvil on Joe Vig, (...) (19 years ago, 15-Jul-05, to lugnet.build.vignette, FTX)
