(...) Agree and disagree. I really loathe 1x2x5 walls. I've used them for filler when running short on a couple colors, but that's it. I *hate* that they're not made from smaller pieces, and I can't stand the texture it gives walls (REALLY long (...) (23 years ago, 28-Jun-01, to lugnet.harrypotter, lugnet.castle)

(...) I love Hermione's hair! And tan curved spindle fence pieces! (Hope these will be in other sets and be easier to come by.) And lampposts (which obviates the necessity of my having to grovel at anyone's feet to get these-- whew!)! I hope the (...) (23 years ago, 28-Jun-01, to lugnet.harrypotter, lugnet.castle)

Hi Aaron, You're right and that's probably why it's small, but if you post details about the plot, please post a spoiler notice! People might not have read it yet. Careful, only read this post if you already read book 1, or if you don't care to find (...) (23 years ago, 28-Jun-01, to lugnet.harrypotter, lugnet.castle)

(...) I'm glad they arrived OK. I remember that Lego said in 1998 or '99, whichever year Mindstorms came out, that 10% of Lego was bought by adults for themselves. That's us, plus all the robotic folks who bought the Mindstorms stuff as a novelty (...) (23 years ago, 28-Jun-01, to lugnet.harrypotter, lugnet.castle)

(...) Keep in mind the Pareto (sp?) Principle. Or the 80/20 rule. 20% of your clientele purchases 80% of your product. So, does the 10% presented above equal 50% of the 20% Pareto concept? Or is that 10% of the 20% (in essence 2% of total (...) (23 years ago, 28-Jun-01, to lugnet.harrypotter, lugnet.castle)

Everything we have asked for from Lego Direct/TLC, however poorly they have implemented it, has exceeded expected demand. I think someone was noting the other day (...)
