| SPENCER - The handles are round. Look at some of the "detailed" pics. Sales?, unlikely. When I reach LEGO-like status, maybe.

I was also forced to change my pop up blocker settings for your page, which I don't like to do. Can you show the catalog in the (...)

| I agree with David. As long as you don't mind the large castle wall pieces, go for the triple pack. This is an outstanding deal with lots of variety and very few unusable pieces. If you would rather have just bricks, compete with the rest of us on (...) (21 years ago, 26-Jun-03, to lugnet.castle)

| LEGO Shop at Home also has that triple pack that consists of the new Black Falcon's Fortress, Dan Siskind's Blacksmith Shop and the 10000 Guarded Inn legend for $89 when you buy the 3 together. It's hard to beat that deal. (21 years ago, 26-Jun-03, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

Old Norse behaviour was brought to my attention through the book "Farfarers" by Farley Mowat. It's more of a (...) (21 years ago, 26-Jun-03, to lugnet.castle)
