        Re: Does LEGO sell LEGO anymore? —James Brown
   (...) I agree with your speculation, and suspected that it wasn't a new-new piece, just a new-to-me piece. Given that I have to import any Scala, and use another country's catalog to even see it, I'm not surprised I haven't run across the piece (...) (23 years ago, 8-Jul-01, to lugnet.general)
