  Re: New higher resolution scans of 238 LEGO Idea Book No. 1 (Netherlands)
 
(...) OK, Now I'm confused. This is NOT an instruction NOR a catalog Scan (per Section 6a of the TOS). It is a Lego Book. Why are they not allowed? The #239 book used to be there, but it too has been removed (but the entry is still there). Can (...) (21 years ago, 12-Nov-04, to lugnet.general)

This page really cracks me up. It is a page from the 238 LEGO Idea Book - and it is just begging for a witty caption. (URL) (21 years ago, 11-Nov-04, to lugnet.general)

  Re: Sort-of-poll: Your most common Lego dream?
 
(...) Weird - my recurring LEGO dream is very similar. I am in a Toys R Us (old-style with long aisles), and I find a bunch of 80s-era sets (in the yellow boxes) that never existed. Large Forestmen and Black Falcons sets are the most common "finds". (...) (21 years ago, 11-Nov-04, to lugnet.general, FTX)
