pause and the year had not been filled in.

Does anyone know the year for this set??

Set 20 (the European version of this set) came out in 1976, as it was
marked "Neuheit" in the 1976 German Brochure.

It does not appear in the 1976 U.S. Brochure, and does (along with also
apparently brand-new sets 110, 112, 113, and 114) in the 1977 U.S.
Brochure.

So the answer is 1977.

Pause has been updated (and that includes 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50).

Tim (or whomever might know): How many figures were in the set?
