I hate extra packaging in every form and material it comes in -- well, unless it's a truly usable storage container with a snap closure or something like that (lame (...)

| 725 is an awesome basic set. Go look at it. It truly bore out the Lego promise of "just the right amount of special pieces to encourage special creations." It actually came with instructions for set-quality models. Notice how its pieces are (...) (22 years ago, 2-May-02, to lugnet.basic, lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.town)
| | | | | Re: legends/re-releases
|
| (...) I agree these sets are some of the best basic sets that were put out. I would also like to add 720 to the line-up. Another good source for parts, including 2 white "warehouse" doors and 4 red door "runners" for the doors. All in all, very (...)

| Would anyone out there like to see sets 730 (red bricks w/ black roof slopes) & 725 (white bricks & red slopes) rereleased? I'd love to see 730 for the bricks, roof slopes, cabinet/refrigerator, & other great town elements. Set 725 allows cool (...) (22 years ago, 1-May-02, to lugnet.basic, lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.town)

| For my preferences, i would much rather have a Dragonlance Line. Ditch the lame Harry Potter too. DL has 10 dragon types, all kinds of races, all kinds of neat looking fortresses and places. Monsters, machines, weapons and stuff. It would be very (...) (22 years ago, 29-Apr-02, to lugnet.dear-lego)

| I think the Pern series would make a great Lego theme, and many of the parts already exist. You already have dragons (although they are a bit small for the Pernese dragons compared to the size of minifigs) and many people would welcome them in more (...)
