(...) OK. Well, it's probably easier and more cost-effective for them to put TB under the TECHNIC brand name than to create two new brand names. I guess they felt ZNAP is different enough from TECHNIC to get its own totally separate brand name. (...) (26 years ago, 1-Feb-99, to lugnet.general)

(...) I've built or played with all 4 of one series. Fun, but limited play value. I'm not sure what to make of certain of the elements yet, but I'm not a technic head. I think some of them have major uses though. (...) Plus they come in neat (...) (26 years ago, 1-Feb-99, to lugnet.general)

(...) As of Thursday morning, there were 14 copies of 8480 at a local TRU. This number has been virtually unchanged for over a month. Too bad they're still at full price. :( Jeff (26 years ago, 1-Feb-99, to lugnet.general)

(...) The hoses you have received may have come from 6882 Walking Astro Grappler. (URL) 6941 *should* have come with yellow hoses w/ black ends. I would suspect that the seller substituted the hoses for some reason. Duane (26 years ago, 1-Feb-99, to lugnet.general)

Yes, that would be sets 487 & 987 for the letters, and 488 & 988 for the numbers (the 400 series came in early/mid 60's, the 900 series came late 60's-early 70's). All of these sets were printed on 1x1 white bricks. I've got both of the number sets (...) (26 years ago, 1-Feb-99, to lugnet.build, lugnet.general, lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)
