Hi. I've made updates to the Brickshelf galleries (we'll have to wait for modification again to see them, of course), fixing the errors mentioned above. The Adventurer I'd forgotten to scan has become face 012, replacing the duplicate of face 100. (...) (22 years ago, 29-Aug-02, to lugnet.build.minifigs)
