 | | Fibblesnork Uber-Garlic Pickles are in the fridge

I just finished preparing a jar of Fibblesnork Uber-Garlic pickles and cannot wait to try them. I am very curious to see how long it takes for the peppers and garlic to be absorbed into the pickles. I will try a few every day starting tomorrow and (...) (26 years ago, 3-Nov-98, to lugnet.general)

I just got a new US Shop at Home catalog, and it's not the one with 3225 "Classic Train" on the cover. It says "Holiday Magic!" at the top, and has a drawing of Minifigs standing in front of a Christmas tree with open books, appearantly singing (...)

[followups set to lugnet.starwars] (...) That is a GREAT shot! It's funny, though, that they chose a shot of an X-Wing in closed-wing configuration -- it's not even an "X" in that shot. :) (...) Well hey, the neat thing is that the fuselage can be (...) (26 years ago, 3-Nov-98, to lugnet.general)

(...) Copletely agree, till the end. I always like the "logo look" ogf the models, and like imagining very much how soft this curves are indeed, of this studs and corners...:-) (to see what I mean, look at my older models at LeoCAD Model Gallery (...) (26 years ago, 3-Nov-98, to lugnet.general)

|

Heya all ! I've got two sets:551 and 1555. Set 1551 is a little duck and set 1555 is St. Nicolaus. Both are packer originaly by LEGO in polybags not in paper boxes. Now I want know if there are also other sets in this serie. I guess there might be (...) (26 years ago, 3-Nov-98, to lugnet.general)

The LEGO Mindstorms site ((URL) had AVI/QT movies of both of their video advertisments, as well as a schedule of when they would appear on TV. I prefer the other one (it had a mindstorms bulldozer which pushes dishes off of a table to "clean up"). (...) (26 years ago, 3-Nov-98, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.general)

I'll second the stubby look. The fuselage looks a little short. As for lumpy, what do you expect? LEGOs traditionally have lumpy studs on top. :-) Duane (...) (26 years ago, 3-Nov-98, to lugnet.general)

(...) It's LEGO. There's only so much that can be done in the way of scale-modeling realism. If they wanted to make an accurate scale model, they'd have to make a bunch of specialized new structural pieces. Which is what most of us were afraid would (...) (26 years ago, 3-Nov-98, to lugnet.general)

(...) Maybe my hopes were too high. Compare to (URL) for example -- the Lego design is way too stubby and lumpy compared to the long, sleek "real" X-wing. (26 years ago, 3-Nov-98, to lugnet.general)
