Well, it's not heretofore unknown per se: http://www.brickmania.com/store_pages/CastleKits.html#anchor1309931 It's just heretofore unknown as a *LEGO* release. :-) It is particularly fitting that this has come to light on the very day that is arguably the Guild of Bricksmiths anniversary, since it was on 13 December 1999 that Kevin and I got down to brass tacks to hammer out the details of founding the Guild (as related here) http://www.bricksmiths.com/guild_history.html of the idea spawned here on LUGNET after I announced my custom hopper kit. http://news.lugnet.com/market/theory/?n=610 Dan has been one of our staunchest and most prolific members almost from the very start. It may well not be a coincidence (if I know Jake and Brad) that this came to light on this particular day. Bravo, Dan!!!

I just wonder whether lego just want to control business or they realised that these sets actually have a wide interest. If this is the first one, then I hope the future will be brighted up with more.... Sonnich www.hot.ee/sonnich/lego/ Larry (...)

		Re: "MOC" Blacksmith Shop on lego.com
(...) Congradulations.....it is nice to see the line that finally recognizes the efforts of the adult lego community.

		Re: "MOC" Blacksmith Shop on lego.com
(...) Why limit yourself so? I assume you don't mean that the only thing you build is sets. I have purchased many sets which I have no interest whatsoever in what the set builds, but I buy because of the great parts selection in it. Deep discounts (...) (23 years ago, 17-Dec-01, to lugnet.general)
