I'm on the German mailing list from the www.1000steine.de website, and the
following item came across today (my translation):
"The former LEGO(R)-designer Bjoern Doppke displays models on his website
'Brickpark' (http://home.t-online.de/home/320098039644-0001/LegoSite.htm) which
he built at LEGO(r) for advertising purposes. Included are naturally th models
for the 'Mehr Zeit fuer Kinder' [more time for kids] campaign. The site is an
absolute must for all true LEGO(r) fans."
The site is in German, so non-German-readers will miss the little tidbits, but
the models themselves are very cool. A couple of examples:
A frog:
http://home.t-online.de/home/320098039644-0001/Legoland/Tiere/frosch.htm
In the advertisement, "Lego knows what ladies wish for." The explanation:
"The lilypads are about 60cm in diameter. The flower petals are made out of
Paradisa sails (a stroke of genius!)."
A tuba:
http://home.t-online.de/home/320098039644-0001/Legoland/Diverses/tuba.htm
"The tuba and beer mugs are built to scale. These were put to uncanny use as
an anniversary gift for especially good Bavarian customers."
Enjoy!

| Wow! Those are some sweet creations. My favorite is the frog and Dizzy Gillespie. I wish I had the grey bricks used in those elephants...and all the rest too! -Chris (25 years ago, 20-Apr-00, to lugnet.general)
