(...) You say many good things, but I believe that this is a stretch. When a store decides to carry LEGO products, they make their best guess how much they can sell. This is typically called 'up front buying' and can happen many months in advance (...) (22 years ago, 24-Oct-04, to lugnet.general)

(...) Excellent idea! It will be very interesting to see where the X-Pods go, like an X-Pods guide to the galaxy :-) A travelling X-Pod can certainly provide more action and variation to the image than an i-pod can. Olof (22 years ago, 24-Oct-04, to lugnet.general)
