What we need in the shops is affordable train sets. Once little Johnny or Jilly has (...) (22 years ago, 24-Dec-02, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.dear-lego)

It would be great to see some of the old space sets brought back as legends. I know I'd buy them. I actually started on a small project last night, where I'm taking the 6781 SP Striker from the Space Police Set and updating it with some new parts (...)
