Ever thought that perhaps they could make Desert Castles and base the theme on Arabian structures (...) (22 years ago, 24-Nov-03, to lugnet.general, FTX)

| (...) OH, BOY! This leaves me just tingling with excitement! I can imagine it now, making up for all those years of missed classic sets... But I think I'll just keep my speculations to myself! Andrew (22 years ago, 24-Nov-03, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.lego, lugnet.general, FTX)

|
| (...) The upper Pick-a-Brick bins are for show only, and don't contain loose brick. There is brick in the back of these drawers, but it can't be scooped out because it is behind a clear plastic wall. I've been told that there will be more variety of (...)

| | |  | | Re: Changes to Brickshelf?
|
| No it's definitely a change. I used to search for people always by name and now I can't. I can't even tell who's stuff I'm looking at in the recent folders. It's really tough to connect people to thier username too. The whole thing is sort of (...) (22 years ago, 24-Nov-03, to lugnet.general)
| | |  | | Re: Changes to Brickshelf?
|
| (...) All good and reasonable. But you didn't answer the (implied) question... Is this a change or are many of us misremembering? I *seem* to remember being able to put "pien" into the entry field displayed when you clicked on "search members" from (...) (22 years ago, 24-Nov-03, to lugnet.general)

| | |  | | Re: official color reference?
|
| (...) Right, those references are great. I just thought it would be ideal to have an actual physical color reference, in ABS, like I'm sure the master builders have. It's something I would find awefully handy, but maybe others wouldn't. (22 years ago, 24-Nov-03, to lugnet.general, lugnet.dear-lego)
| | |  | | Re: Question about AC Nielsen surveys

| (...) I had success with the Space Shuttle Discovery set. It's possible that the sets that you have are not in their database of approved sets (probably the case with the new MINIs). It should be set #, BTW. After you enter the set #, it will show (...) (22 years ago, 24-Nov-03, to lugnet.general)

| Hi Andrzej, (...) Since I own the latest german dealer's catalog, I can tell you that for certain: Pirates are Jack-Stone-scaled in 2004. Sets are with many large elements, but also with a few very nice parts (new pirate flags, maps on 4x4-tiles, (...) (22 years ago, 24-Nov-03, to lugnet.pirates, lugnet.general)

| (...) Jake, Let me be the first to say I was wrong to over-react. Of course, I'm sure you can understand our/my misgivings. I did see the Galidor Knights as a possible way to pull people into LEGO Castle generally. Also, let me thank you for all (...)
