(...) Bob- Is the number of lots set by the number of total pieces in the set or the number of unique piece types in the set? -Ted (18 years ago, 27-Mar-07, to lugnet.events.brickfest, FTX)

(...) Am I the only one that read that and immediately thought: Wouldn't it be great to build each of them in jet form and create an enormous "BrickFest 07 Squadron"! What? Just me? Drat. It's too bad the speed build won't use this set and the Jet (...) (18 years ago, 23-Mar-07, to lugnet.events.brickfest)

(...) Will, If you do manage to combine RCX & NXT, I expect it will look mashed-up, but unlike all the other stuff at BF, this is not a how-does-it-look competition. No matter how it looks, I'm sure people will cheer for robots that try to give them (...) (18 years ago, 21-Mar-07, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.robotics)

We won't have access to all the new parts. Is that bad thing? In the case of a few of the new parts, definitely! The new 1x1 angled brick is one of the best new parts in years. Ditto the new 1x1 tooth plate. However, as nay-blay-ers, we will have (...) (18 years ago, 18-Mar-07, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.color, FTX)
