Adrian Egli, 34 (in about a week) I just want to pass along a little story- It was 1979 and (I believe) I went to a K-Mart not far from my home to buy space set #452 Mobile Tracking Station ((URL)) and when I got it I discovered I just got my first (...)

Lego has of course growen. Growth is good. Sometimes growth equals (...) (22 years ago, 20-Nov-03, to lugnet.general, lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)

Hello! (...) I'm not worried. I'm just disappointed. If those figures are "Castle" (and at least they are called "Knights' Kingdom" and not "Bionicle" oder "Galidor" or what else) I feel like TLC is kidding me. And those figures are different from (...) (22 years ago, 20-Nov-03, to lugnet.general, FTX)
