Those sets show up first in the 1978 catalog. also if you look at the 1978 NL catalog there are many sets with minifigs. I don't think we can pin it down to one minifig, but I believe 1978 was the year. KL (...) Released (...) version (...) (25 years ago, 2-Feb-00, to lugnet.faq)

Not according to the LUGNET database. But I'll be the first to admit that that was my only source. At any rate, those *are* the first sets to include minifigs. If it was 1977 or 78 when they were released is still up for debate. So to answer the (...) (25 years ago, 2-Feb-00, to lugnet.faq)

Actually, the first minifigs were released in 1977 with set number 575 Coast Guard Station, which is the US release of set 369 Coastguard, which did not have true minifigs, but the legless/armless/expressionless ProtoFig. Released concurrently were (...) (25 years ago, 2-Feb-00, to lugnet.faq)

(...) I seem to recall reading (*way* back on RTL) that aquarium air pump hoses are the same size as Lego hose, at least for the pneumatic sets. Try your local pet store. - Mike (25 years ago, 1-Feb-00, to lugnet.faq)
