Hello! (...) Thanks for the praise! (...) I don't hope so. Maybe I'd not be able to jump over it myself... (...) For the arched ceiling I used the most ordinary and non-specialized bricks imaginable, i.e. 2x4 bricks and 2x2 bricks :-) It's an (...) (20 years ago, 10-Mar-05, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.color)

(...) Ben, I don't think the 1x2x2 classic style window will be retired any time soon. The reason is the same reason that it is still in production.... a large number of the Legoland Parks Miniland buildings have the 1x2x2 windows in them. I believe (...) (20 years ago, 10-Mar-05, to lugnet.color)

(snip) (...) Ok, it's a known fact that AFOL's make up from 1-5% in sales for TLG. How does 5% translate to a "core group of consumers"? Now, if you managed to get 40%, that would be a stronger point for debate... Scott (20 years ago, 9-Mar-05, to lugnet.color)
