Not sure if this is the right group to post to... I have just purchased 4883 and upon assembling the main models discovered that pages in the middle of building instructions are missing (##35-66). So dissapointing... Is there any way for me to get (...) (20 years ago, 2-Mar-05, to lugnet.dear-lego)

Dear Lego, please continue mking Technic figures (I don't see them on shop@home anymore). I'd like it if the original 3-pack (with plain Technic smiley faces, a chair & wrench)were re-released; it would be a great mini-'classic' or Legend set. Even (...)

Dear Lego, While watching my son put his train on the track I thought it would be great if LEGO made a level crossing that aligned the train on the track.

I saw set 7263 for the first time in stores[1] today. The packaging is fantastic! Not the "Try Me" packaging[2]. The box is two-sided, with "front" printing on both large sides! Even better, the printing is oriented so that, depending on which side (...) (20 years ago, 2-Feb-05, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.starwars)
