(...) I'm never sure whether to be amused or aggravated when I see people griping about how much more LEGO sets cost now than they did when they were growing up. The one simple answer that noone seems to figure out is "inflation". Think about it. (...) (20 years ago, 7-Jun-04, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.general)

(...) Thank you--although I think the blue flame was used as water in a Jack Stone kit, so it wasn't really a stretch for me to use it like that. I am quite happy with the smoke though. (...) Oh yeah--they're perfect for a non-load bearing structure (...) (20 years ago, 8-Jun-04, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

(...) Thanks, I think I'll be bringing it to (URL) in DC in August (shameless plug!). I was going to make a bucket brigade but I got lazy. Heck, I didn't even put a door on the building--my excuse is that it already burned away. Brucey-Wan wants me (...) (20 years ago, 8-Jun-04, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

(...) This is great! Like others have said, the smoke and the bucket of water are both awesome, as are some of the shapes you made from the flame pieces. You gotta bring that to brickfest, and see if the fire spreads ;) -Dan Rubin (20 years ago, 8-Jun-04, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

(...) Sometimes the best stuff is the simple stuff! I think your creation is wonderful! Like others have already said, the use of white 2x2 round bricks for smoke and the trans-lt blue flame (for water, ironically) is brilliant! And you gotta love (...)

Smoke is nicely done, plus the bucket of water being trown at the fire is really cute. The whole thing deserves to be seen! Maybe a couple more people working with the little fellow would be even better. Terry (20 years ago, 7-Jun-04, to lugnet.castle, FTX)
