(...) Thanks for the reply Frank. Though I read the previous posts on BrickFest, your reply helped elucidate some details. Now I wonder how I can get a hold of the DVD! I did not see any details posted on it (perhaps I missed it). (19 years ago, 15-Aug-05, to lugnet.events.brickfest)

(...) Yes and no. Much more detail was given on LEGO Factory. More future product information than ever before ("Technic palette by mid next year" [per Larry's post in lugnet.trains] - no more of Brad's canned response of "No theme is dead."). (...) (...)

Congratulations and thanks to everyone on the BrickFest team. I didn't get to stay as long (or arrive as early) as I would have liked, but I enjoyed every minute I was there. One small suggestion for next year: I think BrickFest has outgrown its (...) (19 years ago, 15-Aug-05, to lugnet.events.brickfest, FTX)
