I said I'd post it... My slightly more serious response, **based on how my BT1 sets fit into my LEGO fantasy world**: (...) The BT1 are the space force formed by Vathan Boldt of Darknia. He used them to assault the Billundian lunar colonies (...) (23 years ago, 15-Nov-01, to lugnet.space)

(...) Actually, a story like that (pretty close) was in the US and Canada LEGO catalog around 1988. Additionally if someone in the Atlanta area needs to use a BT1 minifig, I can loan you one for picture taking purposes. -Jason (23 years ago, 16-Nov-01, to lugnet.build.contests)

(...) Duuuuude! Don't be like that, give us a reference! I have several of each of the BT1 sets, and lot's of promotional materials from the same BT1 sets MISB (all opened now), and I have NEVER seen this suggested storyline. I am all ears, baby! (...)

I would be interested to know just how many kids prefered to be the cops when we played cops and robbers back then. I for one will admit that I always liked being on the robbers side.
