| I just had a light bulb go off in my head. I'm reading all these requests for old sets/old parts from old sets. More than anything I would like to see LEGO make available ALL the minifigs that they've created since the minifig first appeared. If you (...) (25 years ago, 16-Dec-99, to lugnet.dear-lego)
