 Dear LEGO / 3397 (-20)
  Re: This is stupid... I can't tolerate this *juniorization*...
 
(...) I don't think that is the case. If anything, they may be too new to be in the catalog. I just started seeing them in stores a short while ago, and most stores near me still carry the whole line. Henry (23 years ago, 23-Aug-01, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.dear-lego)
 
  Re: This is stupid... I can't tolerate this *juniorization*...
 
(...) Ah... my mistake and my apologies. I made the assumption that because this thread started with a comment on the recent Shop At Home catalog that the dinosaurs were the ones in that book. (1371, 6719, 6720, 6721, 6722). I agree, the 7000-7003 (...) (23 years ago, 23-Aug-01, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.dear-lego)
 
  Re: This is stupid... I can't tolerate this *juniorization*...
 
(...) I think Frank is referring to sets 7000-7003, the "young" dinosaur series. Other than the heads and tails, the bulk of the body is made up of bricks, mostly slope pieces. Henry (23 years ago, 23-Aug-01, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.dear-lego)
 
  Re: This is stupid... I can't tolerate this *juniorization*...
 
(...) What Frank is talking about are the smaller Dinosaurs sets- (URL) mostly have bricks with a few dino specific pieces thrown in (like the neck, head and tail). Hope that helps, ~Nathan (23 years ago, 23-Aug-01, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.dear-lego)
 
  Re: This is stupid... I can't tolerate this *juniorization*...
 
(...) It wasn't in the catalog, but if you check online, you will find a few small dinosaurs made from bricks. One has some nice parts to it too. (...) This encourages creativity? How? That was the original question. Jonathan D. (23 years ago, 23-Aug-01, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.dear-lego)
 
  Re: This is stupid... I can't tolerate this *juniorization*...
 
(...) Frank.... you must have gotten a different catalog than I did. I'm looking at the dinosaurs now and what I see are dinosaurs made out of LEGO pieces that are shaped to look like dinosaur parts. Not really LEGO "bricks" as such, but rather (...) (23 years ago, 23-Aug-01, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.dear-lego)
 
  Re: Guarded Inn
 
(...) They are pintos - palominoes are "blond" with even paler mane and tail. Lego could make me a set of off-color horses - Grey, chestnut (butterscotch), and Tan. They would be great. Off-color foliage would be nice, too. Sand green, lime green, (...) (23 years ago, 20-Aug-01, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.dear-lego)
 
  Re: LEGO Store Stock?
 
(...) Yes that's been my experience as well, the stock fluctuates at the MOA LIC depending how recent their last shipment was and the how fast things are selling. What I do is this, if I see anything there I want, I buy it when I see it. It's likely (...) (23 years ago, 19-Aug-01, to lugnet.dear-lego)
 
  Re: LEGO Store Stock?
 
(...) Unfortunately that's normal. AFAIK they've never had any of the newer LD bulk packs. They've had a smattering of the older service packs over the years, but never in much quantity or variety. As for train stuff, they are usually fairly well (...) (23 years ago, 19-Aug-01, to lugnet.dear-lego)
 
  Re: LEGO Store Stock?
 
(...) I think i should have got 2 now... Josh (23 years ago, 18-Aug-01, to lugnet.dear-lego)
 
  Re: LEGO Store Stock?
 
(...) Last week it was the same story at the LIC Orlando, Florida. No bulk packs, no switches, no sopwith. All they had in the train section was 4 4561, 1 banged-up speed regulator, some straight track and a shelf full of curved track. All I got was (...) (23 years ago, 18-Aug-01, to lugnet.dear-lego)
 
  Re: LEGO Store Stock?
 
(...) Bulk bricks appear to be treated like service packs, as far as LEGO retail outlets go. It's rare to see more than a handful of different service items at LEGO Potomac Mills the several times I've been there, and LEGOLAND Billund had only one (...)

  LEGO Store Stock?
 
Ok, i went to the lego store in the Mall Of America. I figured i'd be able to get switch tracks, 2x2 tiles, & 1x4x3 trans clear panels. I get there and they had NONE! Not even the switches. I firgure someone bought the switches, thats why this is (...) (23 years ago, 18-Aug-01, to lugnet.general, lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.org.us.gmlug)
 
  Metroliner and Club Car
 
Hi - Will the Metroliner and Club Car be available for ordering on the Lego website today? Or has it been delayed? Thanks for your help, - Bob (23 years ago, 17-Aug-01, to lugnet.dear-lego)

"Tim Saupe" <tsaupe@cinci.rr.com> wrote in message news:GI6wJq.F5M@lugnet.com... (...) I wish we had more than just speculation to go off of for the whole SW license/no spaceship clause rumor.

  Re: feedback swamped with starwars Ahhh!!!
 
Hello - A couple of thoughts here - (...) That's not true, as Brad just said the other day they were looking at Space sets for the Legends line. In making my rounds, I noticed a large Star Wars collectibles site had mentioned the survey with a 'call (...) (23 years ago, 17-Aug-01, to lugnet.general, lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.starwars)
 
  feedback swamped with starwars Ahhh!!!
 
I was quite perturbed with the results the last time I used www.lego/youropinion on lego products....it had starwars 6 different times (saying the same basic thing...) on what is your favorite thing... and 8 out of 10 times on what products should (...)

  Return of 5301 Service Pack?
 
Dear LEGO - With the return of the Metroliner meaning the grey 6x28 Wagon Plate is back in production, would it be possible to release the 5301 Grey Wagon Plate service pack again?

  Re: This is stupid... I can't tolerate this *juniorization*...
 
(...) How about a Lego Factory? that would work great as a train set. *Unjuniorized* that is. It can have train tracks with an overhead crane, a flatbed train car, an 18 wheeler,-all just like the 4555, and a building with an office and work area. (...)

(...) A factory is something I'd really like to see. I wonder what it should produce :-) (23 years ago, 14-Aug-01, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.dear-lego)
