This may not be news to anyone, but it was news to me. I just got an email back from LEGO-Direct saying the blue 32 x 32 baseplate, though it says "Sold Out" on the S@H website, has been discontinued. Though I should look out for other items that (...)

(...) Probably the same way they are doing the new Pirate set, just a "play mat". At least that is my theory. You know the company line... "it ain't dead". (so you never really know for sure). Ben M. (21 years ago, 28-Jan-04, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.general, FTX)
