(...) But everyone IS entitled to their opinion and... Sorry, I had to. I agree though, "this set sucks but is good for parts" is becoming redundant and has reached the level of "me too" posts.

(...) No. All the posts lately are very inflammatory, and I don't get it. It would be different if Lego was putting out 'nothing but' juniorization and z-nap. But we've got model class x-wings, lego direct, and other stuff that I see as very (...) (24 years ago, 23-Jan-01, to lugnet.dear-lego)
