| The first of the new Harry Potter sets is now available in the UK. the 4755 Knight Bus has arrived, but, as others have noted in .harrypotter, quality is definitely slipping. The instructions seem to printed on a much inferior paper stock, but (...) (22 years ago, 28-Feb-04, to lugnet.general) !!

| (...) It is obviously me... Sigh. I didn't 'understand' the part where these comics were for the internal employees of LEGO. That would make the colour change statements as hints that the AFOLS don't like the colour change... and that's a good (...) (22 years ago, 28-Feb-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general, lugnet.org, FTX)

| (...) If they tried to keep milking the original Hogwarts for every last drop, they'd be bleeding money to the Law of Diminishing Returns. There's a point where continued production of a set becomes a liability, and when the vast majority of stores (...) (22 years ago, 28-Feb-04, to lugnet.general, FTX)

I was just responding to your accusation that I was reading more into the word "have" than you were, which I still think was not the case. (...) (...)

| (...) I'm not good at it (I know from experience ;-)) I like the way you made the game, but I keep missing the spaceships I have to shoot. Maybe that's the point ;-) Saskia (22 years ago, 28-Feb-04, to lugnet.general)
| | | | | Re: Article text
|
| (...) You're splitting hairs. In order to have them they have to produce them. However you want to split it does not cost any more to have bley and grey than it does to have bley and (any color). The main point should be that while developing bley (...) (22 years ago, 28-Feb-04, to lugnet.general, FTX)

| (...) OK so nobody likes my term "Switched around". Matters not. The point is that they had nowhere near sold the original castle to all the people who would likely buy one. They couldn't keep going with it though because of the color change. So (...) (22 years ago, 28-Feb-04, to lugnet.general, FTX)

| (...) I never suggested abandoning the effort, just that perhaps a comic isn't the most effective means of doing it. And that doesn't mean the comic shouldn't exist either, just not as a propaganda tool. All this talk of 'tailoring it to different (...)

| Some of you may remember a MOC I made a while ago The Drone Transport (URL) Well, I made a new Flash game starring the MOC and put it on my website. Yes, it's really short and fairly easy, but it's pretty cute and fun if I don't say so myself... Go (...) (22 years ago, 27-Feb-04, to lugnet.general)

Significantly different audiences will need versions that are tailored to fit their needs and views. The whole greys issue (...)

The intent was to provide something that would appeal to those who had already bought the original Hogwarts, but that could still serve as a focal set for those who (...)
