Dear LEGO, please enable Australia as an option in your amazing S@H on-line store as soon as possible.

(...) I wish the boxes were as compact as they were in the late 70's and early 80's. I guess "size sells" now, so they fill 'em full of air. You go back and look at the size of a box for a 600 or a 6803, and man they are tiny! I've seen bigger (...) (23 years ago, 12-Jul-01, to lugnet.dear-lego)

(...) I'm sorry but I have to disagree. LEGO should keep its costs down, and its primary consumer audience in mind: kids. Kids don't care about keeping boxes, as a rule; they just want to play with the bricks. Collectors of whole sets are a very (...) (23 years ago, 11-Jul-01, to lugnet.dear-lego)
