I was sitting at my desk, working on a project. I had stopped for a minute, to think through a particular point, and I looked over at my Soccer stadium setup. Someone had taken my Night Lord, astride his black dragon, and set them in the middle of (...) (26 years ago, 7-Dec-98, to lugnet.general)

  Re: Hmm
 
We have had thefts here, but never any of my Lego. If someone were to take any, there would be no crying on MY part. Maybe the relatives of the thief at the funeral.... I DID have some co-workers take one tiny creation from my cube once and set it (...) (26 years ago, 7-Dec-98, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Hmm
 
Luckily, I only have 3 other people in the office, so finding out who did something is pretty easy. Letsee ... I have the 8440 car and 8480 space shuttle, and 5591 as well. I like the larger sets at work, more of a talking piece. When I get my 8880, (...) (26 years ago, 8-Dec-98, to lugnet.general)

  Re: Hmm
 
I NEVER BUILT the main model. I think the "bodywork" is UGLY. I built the alternate first, and haven't touched it since. Someday I'll rip it apart and built the alternate PROPERLY, with transmission and other extras, but it will take more parts, and (...) (26 years ago, 10-Dec-98, to lugnet.general)

I would love to rebuild the 8480 and put it on my desk! I have slowly been re-engineering the 8880 for right-hand drive, with the hopes of bringing it in, just don't have anywhere to store it at night.... Lee Jorgensen wrote in message (...) (26 years ago, 12-Dec-98, to lugnet.general)
