(...) In the latest LEGO Magazine, there's a full-page ad for a contest about something, and they've been using images of this creation as a sample. I've seen this Town Hall used by LEGO in several places, I also hope they produce it at some point. (19 years ago, 17-Jul-05, to lugnet.build.microscale, 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)
