I hope its not real -- Lego has said many times that the Maersk color was not a current color -- and if it turns out to be a current color that would not hold up well for thier already shakey ground they are standig on.

(...) I recycle boxes from new sets. If I buy an old set with its box, I make a half-hearted effort to sell the box on ebay or to a member of my LUG. If that doesn't pan out, I recycle it too. The only boxes I have kept are the plastic tubs from the (...) (22 years ago, 13-May-04, to lugnet.general)

Quick little note for part history hounds: I noticed that the interior of the brick known as "Slope Brick 65 2 x 2 x 2" has been given new strength. I do not recall this in any other set, but it's got triangles inside. The bracing extends as a (...) (22 years ago, 13-May-04, to lugnet.general)
