  Re: MY BUY OF THE CENTURY
 
(...) I think "boot fair" comes from brits selling things out of the boot (trunk) of their car. With that perspective, it seems like it's something like a flea market (or the tailgating area of a hamfest [amateur radio gathering]). (24 years ago, 4-Jan-01, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Harry Potter speculation
 
Actually, I think the Hogwarts Express is a VERY likely candidate for inclusion in the HP Lego series, but probably NOT as a 9v train line item. Think Time Twisters Twisted Time Train (6497) rather than true Lego 9v Train. Lego is thinking for sets (...) (24 years ago, 4-Jan-01, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.trains, lugnet.dear-lego)  
 
  Re: Harry Potter speculation
 
(...) "leaning in the Belville direction" ??? ?Really? --What do you base that on? Wouldn't it be hard to create a train large enough for those silly Belville characters. Also, I would have never thought that if Lego purchased a licensing agreement (...) (24 years ago, 4-Jan-01, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.trains, lugnet.dear-lego)
 
  Re: Harry Potter speculation
 
(...) Agreed. It depends on how Warner Bros. feels about Lego interpretation of the work. Warner seems to have most of the domestic (U.S.) merchandising for HP tied up with some sort of an agreement to approve or disapprove licensed items based on (...)

  Ed Boxer's website has new URL
 
Geocities changed their naming conventions. Any links to my website will need to be reset. Simply delete the tilda, "~", before edboxer ("www.geocities.com/...lego.html" to "www.geocities.com/e...go.html"). (24 years ago, 4-Jan-01, to lugnet.publish, lugnet.town, lugnet.castle, lugnet.announce)

(...) IIRC there were some on a castle boat of some kind, I think it was called sea serpent or something. (24 years ago, 4-Jan-01, to lugnet.general, lugnet.castle)

  'BOOT FAIR'
 
Here in Britain, a boot fair is where people go to sell the stuff that they dont want anymore. They are usually held in car parks or fields. I never much cared for them untill a friend of mine picked up 3 town sets for £5. Since then i started (...) (24 years ago, 5-Jan-01, to lugnet.castle)

I'm not sure I would like to see Harry Potter et. al. taking over Belville anymore than the other commentators in that thread, but I can see where the Belville scale would give (...)

  Baby Horse
 
Is Paradisa 6404 the only set that comes with a baby horse? I just put one up for auction on ebay last night and wanted to put that in the description but I wasn't sure. I figured you fellow castle-heads would know. (24 years ago, 5-Jan-01, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: **My very first posting of MOC pics!!!!**
 
(...) Ah, I think I get it now. The lower ramp ends in that picture, where the minifig is standing. Then, you continue all the way around the castle on that level, and come to the set of spiral stairs in this picture, and go up those to the main (...)
