As a truly good intentioned LEGO enthusiast, I am asking you to remove these
illegal scans from internet publication and also ask Todd to delete your
previous post. This is in response to my desire to keep the delicate
relationship between adult online enthusiasts and the LEGO Company intact. • <CLIP>
If the majority believe they should be withdrawn by 18:00 GMT tomorrow, I'll
do it, (or ask Todd to if I can't get Outlook to do it)

Huw

I am in the computer reseller business, and we frequently get information and
product specifications from manufacturers and distributors and a lot of it
says that it is for in-house use only and not for distribution to the general
public.  They have other publications that have 99% of the same information
printed for the general public's consumption, only they are printed
differently. Call it marketing or branding or whatever, but companies have the
right and do ask that their resellers do not distribute certain publications
to the public for whatever reason.

I would bet that these retailer catalogs have some wording that they are not
for the public.  As a collector and AFOL, I would love to have these in my
possession, however I think they should be removed.  After all TLC has
released this info to us in accordance with their marketing plan via the in-
set catalogs, (which I thnk are ok to scan and post once they have been found
in a bought set, as is the case with huw's scans on brickshelf).
