Dear Lego,

I would be very interested in buying instructions for many
of the older sets I have, some of these are from as much as 20
years ago .. some only a year or 2.

Is there any way the Lego company would consider re-printing
instructions ?  I think there would be a huge market for this.
In particular for localised promotion sets ... where very few
were made so most of us never have the chance to get these,
I would be very happy to just buy the instructions and try to
build the sets from spare parts.
As the instructions are already existing - there would be
very little expenditure on research and development.
Another possibility to further this would be the sale of
the necessary decals / stickers for the sets - as these always get
worn or lost over time.

If you made available the instructions for sets such as the old grey
Maersk truck or the airline sets 2531,1772,1773,1774,1973 ...
many of the lego collecting community would be interested I am sure.

regards
Yvonne

(...) You don't have to buy the instructions for some of these. Some are available to download for free on brickshelf; http//www.brickshelf.com . The old the set is, the more likely you will find instructions there. Brickshelf will not put up scans (...) (24 years ago, 30-Nov-00, to lugnet.dear-lego)
