  Shop @ Home website
 
I know my browser is ancient and nobody really cares about it, but there is one thing I've noticed that likely ought to be fixed. There are some places where it looks like a string is being supplied from a database or something, and used in some (...) (20 years ago, 13-Aug-04, to lugnet.dear-lego)

(...) That's good to hear. Right after I made the original post on LUGNET I went to the LEGO website and filled in their feedback form, too. So LEGO's getting the comment from two places. (20 years ago, 12-Aug-04, to lugnet.dear-lego)

  Re: Shop@Home website
 
(...) Jordan, I couldn't agree with you more. It's sad that sometimes Brickshelf is the best place to see good pics of official LEGO sets. As for the LEGO site, I would think it makes sense to offer both sizes of pics. Many websites do this by (...) (20 years ago, 11-Aug-04, to lugnet.dear-lego)

Would you please make the clickable images larger? They are only 384x288 pixels, which is pretty small. I want to see super-up-close detail, so give us some higher resolution photos, please! (20 years ago, 11-Aug-04, to lugnet.dear-lego) !

The simple answer (probably) is that they do not purchase LEGO directly from TLC, they purchase through a distributor like Marz (Marz dropped the line).

  Authorized Lego retailers
 
I am always looking for new places to purchase lego and came across the site www.theblockshop.com the other day. This site interested me mainly because according to the site, they are located around 30 miles from where I live and the fact that they (...)

  Missing log bricks in set 4508
 
Has anyone else on LUGNET built the new Designer set #4508, "Titan XP"? I built the giant robot, and it calls for four black 1x2 log bricks - but mine didn't contain any! Has anyone else experienced this? There's no inventory on Peeron, and I (...) (20 years ago, 9-Aug-04, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.build)
 
  Re: New Lego Stores
 
Thanks for the detailed reply Scott! The problem is I am flying into Philadelphia and I am not sure which other places I will head to, atleast not yet. It will most definitely be NJ and NY. I guess it was convenience of having the information in one (...) (20 years ago, 6-Aug-04, to lugnet.dear-lego)

  Re: KK2 pricing
 
(...) Yeah I agree with Ben. The KK2 boxes look VERY interesting. Last year's boxes were kinda boring. If I was a kid, I would be dying to get the KK2 sets. But I'm not a kid... -Bryan (20 years ago, 6-Aug-04, to lugnet.dear-lego)
 
  Re: KK2 pricing
 
Hi Dan, Although this is speculation on my part, I believe KK2 is more expensive because of the packaging and playing cards. Some of the boxes have flip top lids which are die cut and are very glossy. All of the playing cards are glossy and die cut. (...) (20 years ago, 6-Aug-04, to lugnet.dear-lego)
 
  KK2 pricing
 
I was wondering why Knights Kingdom 2 is so "expensive". Compared to the new lets say Alpha Team sets ranging from $4-$60. Where as the KK2, which is non-liscensed, is $9-$90. There are many possibilties I personally can think of I was just hoping (...) (20 years ago, 6-Aug-04, to lugnet.dear-lego)

  New Lego Stores
 
Would it be too much to ask that the Lego website be updated to show all the new stores that are opening (OR have opened already) here in the US? I am looking to make a trip to the East Coast and may stop by one if close by. I am referring to this (...) (20 years ago, 3-Aug-04, to lugnet.dear-lego)
