Brad,

Rolling garage doors are VERY popular.  They are also relatively rare
because they were only available in the 80s.

There are at least four WAMALUG members that have told me they'd love to see
these doors return.  Most of them either missed them when they were in
production or lost/sold them off when they entered their "Dark Age".


If they can't/won't bring them back in bulk, then either reverse the
Juniorization of Town, and Seniorize it, giving it back all the nice parts
it used to have, or bring out 1 or 2 Town Sr sets a year, with parts like
the rolling garage doors, and NO Town Jr megapieces.

I heartily agree.  I am tired of "buildings" being little more than four posts
and a roof.  I want buildings with substance, and using many different kinds of
windows (some very cool window designs can be made with multiple "classic"
windows, see < http://www.brickshelf.com/scans/0000/0226/0226-32.html > for
some great ideas).  Also, make buildings that have a flavor to them, like the
half-timber style, for instance.

Just my $.02.

Jeff

Brad, Rolling garage doors are VERY popular. They are also relatively rare because they were only available in the 80s. PLEASE check to see if it would be possible to bulk order them (assuming the old molds didn't wear out and are stored somewhere). (...) (25 years ago, 23-Dec-99, to lugnet.dear-lego)
