Having had actually built something out of Lego Soft, now I have a strong doubt on the feasibility of the brick-girl shown in the 9021 picture (URL) There is no way that the corner pieces in the hair and the skirt of the girl can stay there, since (...) (24 years ago, 17-Oct-00, to lugnet.dacta)

But in Australia, DACTA is run through LA...In fact at one stage you could order DACTA [or at least get info] from LA only.

The reason for asking BradJ is that he's responsible for Lego Direct, and in his words: " LEGO Direct is a business unit of the LEGO Company. Among its responsibilities is the management of direct commerce to consumers. These commerce activities -- (...) (24 years ago, 11-Sep-00, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.dacta)

(...) Why would Brad J have anything to do with LEGO Dacta in Australia? Why don't you try to call someone at Dacta in SE Asia? That might actuallt get you a response. (24 years ago, 11-Sep-00, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.dacta)
