(...) I would like to query the accuracy of the dates from Billund...the mini-fig stiffs were available from 1975-1979/1980, yet only 1975 is shown, so it is quite possible the dates for fabuland are also wrong... Benjamin Whytcross (23 years ago, 20-Feb-02, to lugnet.fabuland)

I always thought Fabuland's time span to be 1979-1989. Well, I was wrong about the end date being 1989. It was 1990. 1990 Chinese? catalogue (URL) the ultimate evidence is in a picture taken by Osamu Furusawa of a showcase at Billund. (URL) (23 years ago, 19-Feb-02, to lugnet.fabuland)
