(...) snip Has anyone checked the Snow Queen set closely ? It looks like a two toned Fir tree in the background - white top with green lower branches. If thats real and not fake, I reckon it will end up in high demand. (21 years ago, 12-Feb-05, to lugnet.belville, lugnet.general)

Man, the color variations on certain parts in these sets just make me lime green with envy! Why do the girls' sets have such cool parts? More importantly, why don't these sets show up on store shelves? I know I'd shell out (no pun intended given the (...) (21 years ago, 12-Feb-05, to lugnet.belville, lugnet.general)

I absolutely, positively, have to have one of those. I need something to represent the XY plane in my 3D class, and the regular green/gray baseplates aren't cutting it (the XY plane in my CAD systems is transparent). I end up using a piece of plexi, (...) (21 years ago, 8-Feb-05, to lugnet.general)

If it's a non-functional bulb, I'd think this would be an ideal opportunity to experiment with it and take it apart, to see if you can fit in a new lightbulb. It shouldn't be that difficult to accomplish. Perhaps you can even redesign it so it takes (...) (21 years ago, 5-Feb-05, to lugnet.parts, lugnet.storage, lugnet.general)
