Dear Lego, This tub would sell. Add some trees, a few horses and maybe a peasant figure or two - with pitchforks. Be sure to enclose an Idea Book with 20+ pages of castle building inspiration and you would have a winning product. And to save (...) (21 years ago, 1-Apr-04, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.general)

Something I want is a part thats like the 1 x 2 hinge with fingers on the long side except with 2 fingers instead of 3. (21 years ago, 27-Mar-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.dear-lego)

(...) Yeah, that would be great! You could also combine it with a 1x2 plate to make an upside-down jumper, roughly. Hmmm, I'm not sure what colors I'd most like to see in existing shapes. It varies, depending on what project I'm working on. But here (...) (21 years ago, 26-Mar-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.dear-lego)

(...) Yeah, submissions of pics of official LEGO sets as "your own creation" is pretty bad. What's worse is I've also seen some pictures of MegaBloks models printed in the LEGO Mania magazine!! BAD!!! -Bryan (21 years ago, 25-Mar-04, to lugnet.dear-lego)

|

The March issue of Lego Magazine just arrived in mail. In "Out of this World Building Challenge Winners", one 11-year-old kid wins with a "Intergalactic Traveling Spaceship" -- which looks to me just a 8480 with mini-figs sitting around the cockpit.

I work in a university library (and I used to work in a public library) and I have always wondered how the library concept could be integrated with the Lego play concept. I think there is an opportunity with the Designer series of sets. If Lego (...) (21 years ago, 22-Mar-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.dear-lego)

It's impossible for me to limit it to just 5! I have about two or three notebook pages dedicated to this very thing. So, with my apologies, here's some highlights from my longish wish list...

After reading about continued losses and seeing various moves to improve market share and such, I offer a few of my own humble observations. My own kids love Legos, I teach various classes at elementary schools using Legos (Simple Machines and (...) (21 years ago, 19-Mar-04, to lugnet.dear-lego)

(...) I'll follow up my own post and also express my amazement that 10000 Guarded Inn and 10039 Black Falcon's Fortress sold out sometime in the last couple of days. At least the Guarded Inn re-release has been out for a bit longer. I suppose this (...) (21 years ago, 18-Mar-04, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.castle)

My understanding (from reading the press release about how well Hogwarts Castle did) is that it is unusual for sets to go through multiple production runs. (...)
