I was wondering if someone could help with the following questions:

1. were there any new products previewed (like last year)

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.").

2. there was a S@H code provided to buy some bulk items at a good
discount, were there any such thing this year?

No. I think bulk packs are disappearing (instead we get LEGO Factory - which
is said to be cheaper per piece the larger the creation). There were also
hints at discounts for serious bulk. I heard rumors that LEGO Factory will
have some mechanism to detect "bulk order" creations though (of course such
will be easy to fool, and/or will have false hits [especially for things
like huge flags - a 4'x6' French flag would have three huge bands of red,
white, and blue for instance]).

3. Any DVDs being produced this year?

I hope so, I paid for one...

(...) 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)
