(...) I really, really wanted to let this die, but I realized that someday you will be back and that something like this could likely happen again. With that in mind I'd like to say the following: Although a lot of the issues have now been clouded (...) (23 years ago, 11-Jun-01, to lugnet.castle)

It was like a refresher course in (...) lighting in a couple of those pics! I just wish I had as much tan brick as you do ;-) You have to love those new colors. We'll be seeing lots more of cool new MOC's in these new colors. BK> (23 years ago, 11-Jun-01, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Oh, yeah, this was definitely targeted at us. I don't think it's a coincidence that the first set they picked for rerelease was the highest-rated Castle set in the LUGNET database and one of the more expensive ones on eBay. I was just saying (...) (23 years ago, 11-Jun-01, to lugnet.castle)

I would just like to clarify a point here: we are all Lego collectors. Lego refers to us that way, we behave like classic collectors, and there is nothing wrong with being a Lego collector! Look at all the catalogs and Lego Mania magazines. They are (...) (23 years ago, 11-Jun-01, to lugnet.castle)
