  Two disgruntled earls...
 
Hey, all! I was messing around in MLCad today, and I made these with Paint Shop Pro and Pov Ray, and, of course, MLCad. As soon as I saw the results, I must admit that I started laughing out loud. Anyway, with out more ado, here's the link: (URL) (...) (24 years ago, 16-Sep-00, to lugnet.castle)

  Chrome Knight's Kingdom
 
I don't know if this is old news, but here it is!

They are, "grocery and drug store (...) (24 years ago, 15-Sep-00, to lugnet.castle)  
 
  Re: Misprinted Leonora heads?
 
(...) Don't let them get away with this. The only benefit of Lego over competing brands is the quality of the product -- if they can't deliver on this, then who needs 'em? And I have had this smeared printing problem too, just not with Leonora's (...) (24 years ago, 15-Sep-00, to lugnet.castle)

  Misprinted Leonora heads?
 
I recently purchased King Leo's Castle and was disappointed to find the Queen Leonora head the victim of a dire printing error. Her face was a complete mess. The eyes, lips, and hair were all blurred and ran into each other. I called LEGO and they (...) (24 years ago, 15-Sep-00, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Wolfpack- Fangs or no fangs?
 
Of course we are all familiar with the fierceness of the Wolfpack due to their crest of the silver wolf visage with its fangs barred. I just noticed, however; that the logos on the boxes, are without fangs. Can anyone else verify this? What does (...) (24 years ago, 15-Sep-00, to lugnet.castle)
