The brick & most everything else that goes with it.

o Missing that 'last copy' of a classic set that the store had on the
shelf last week.
o Walking into a store and seeing large quantities of merchandise that
did not sell (for whatever reason).
o Not being able to help move said merchandise to eager buyers

> How can we help you?
o Fill in the gaps in the Pause set database. Give Todd (or someone) a
'complete' list of sets & numbers.

should be) a symbiotic relationship. TLC has the designers, the
equipment, the molds, the transport system, etc. How can we fit into

while making Lego Direct 'the strongest brand in the world amongst
families by the year 2005' ?
o oh yes, more pine trees :)
o and shooting cannons :) :)
