January 2000 S@H catalog —Maggie Cambron

The new catalog came in a package my sister got for my boys. Haven't had time to really look, but here are a few items I found interesting: The Royal Family inhabiting King Leo's Castle consists of King Leo, Queen Leonora and Princess Storm. The (...)

Re: January 2000 S@H catalog —Jeff Johnston

(...) OK...of the queen and the princess, which is which? I don't think either of the female minifigs looks anywhere near old enough to be married to Leo... is he robbing the cradle (as well as having an axe fetish)? J (25 years ago, 26-Dec-99, to lugnet.general, lugnet.castle)

Re: January 2000 S@H catalog —Doyle G. Nelson

(...) Are You suggesting ill of Good king Leo.... Hmmmm..... Well then lets revolt and chop his head off and make Lord Nelson....King Nelson! I hear he is a great chap! And his kingdom is doing swell too! I'll check on a price for a French (...) (25 years ago, 26-Dec-99, to lugnet.general, lugnet.castle)

Re: January 2000 S@H catalog —Gary R. Istok

(...) Hmmm, I just looked at this box at KMART yesterday. In French it says: "Coeur de Leon" which translates to "Lion Hearted", which would make it Richard I the Lion Hearted (1189-1199) King of England and the Angevin lands of France (Brittany, (...)

Re: January 2000 S@H catalog —Jeff Johnston

(...) 'Leo' also translates to 'lion'. Also, wasn't the british name for 6008 (Royal King) "Richard the Lion-Hearted"? Maybe KK *is* RK years down the road, as someone previously suggested... J (25 years ago, 3-Jan-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.castle)

Re: January 2000 S@H catalog —Maggie Cambron

(...) Queen Leonora is in the pointy hat with the blue dress and red jacket. She has brown curls framing her face. In the catalog she looks rather matronly IMHO. Princess Storm is in form fitting body armor and a Don Quixote-esque hat. I like her (...) (25 years ago, 26-Dec-99, to lugnet.general, lugnet.castle)

Baseplates not limited —Mark Herzberg

Answering my own question here, I got the catalouge today, and 626 through 628, the blue, green, and X-Large baseplates are not limited quantities. (25 years ago, 27-Dec-99, to lugnet.general, lugnet.castle)

Re: Baseplates not limited —Mark Herzberg

(...) Another follow-up: Train accsesories are not limited either. (25 years ago, 27-Dec-99, to lugnet.general, lugnet.castle)

Re: January 2000 S@H catalog —Maggie Cambron

(...) Wow, that should have been the first thing I looked at! They still have the two separate pages-- one with mainly bricks and plates, and the other with the miscellaneous packs. But get this: on top of the brick page it says, "All accessories (...) (25 years ago, 26-Dec-99, to lugnet.general, lugnet.market.shopping)

Re: January 2000 S@H catalog —Doyle G. Nelson

(...) Well when I Contacted Lego, they said, they know of no such plan to cancel the brick packs and most likely they would be the first to know over others. But I didn't ask about the other accessories like windows etc. In fact to my knowledge they (...) (25 years ago, 27-Dec-99, to lugnet.general, lugnet.market.shopping)

Re: January 2000 S@H catalog —Mark Herzberg

(...) Does "limited quanties" apply to baseplates? I hope not, if not, better order a lot of those X-Large grey baseplates. It is sad to see it, but I just think of it as clearing out to bring in LEGO Direct. (25 years ago, 27-Dec-99, to lugnet.general, lugnet.market.shopping)

(...) One of the benny's of living in Sand Diego CA is being only a few miles from Lego land.... Though I must admit I haven't been there, most likely the same reason I have never went to Disney Land in all these Years :/ Doyle (25 years ago, 26-Dec-99, to lugnet.general, lugnet.market.shopping)
