Ah! This explains (in part) the heavy predominance of minifigs over other
pieces on your web site.

I had to get some stuff from Europe back when they didn't sell LEGO trains
in the US.

I hear you alluding to studying a lot in your messages. Keep it up and good
jobs will come to you!

Thats a cool site. I've never seen that one before.
By the way, with regards to your site, when I sent mail to the address given
on the links page, I got no reply. I had to complain in the LUGNET general

suggest trying the same.
