  Re: Have '87 Catalog with many alternate/different set names
 
Hello! (...) I would be interested in the names of the Castle sets. And this difference in set names is a good argument for my opinion that in international intercourse we should refer to the set numbers rather than to the names. Names are - as you (...)

  Re: Have '87 Catalog with many alternate/different set names
 
Yes! #6682 Cement Mixer is callde "Cement-mixer lorry." Do you know anyone or any website that would be interested in this information? I like to keep old catalogs, but I'd be happy to donate this one if it can be used for more than just my own (...) (19 years ago, 17-Aug-05, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Where do we go from here...
 
(...) Janey, I know that you and a couple other people did respond to an earlier thread about The Hobby Show, but for some reason that discussion just seemed to fade away. So I'm glad Dave decided to light the fire again and I hope we can hear from (...) (19 years ago, 18-Aug-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, lugnet.loc.ca.on, lugnet.general, lugnet.events, FTX)

  Re: LUGNET to change hands while continuing normal operation
 
(...) yes. you also are in the lucky number range. send me your addy for verification. I'm warning you though, these were found buried in boxes and are a bit "aged". and I'll have to add some 2-cent stamps to them. heh. -Suz (19 years ago, 17-Aug-05, to lugnet.general, lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: Have '87 Catalog with many alternate/different set names
 
(...) Hey Dave, I don't have that catalog, but I think I know what you have. You probably have a British or Australian Lego catalog. In the earlier days of Lego, most catalogs were printed in either Denmark or Germany. The "storey" and "centre" are (...) (19 years ago, 17-Aug-05, to lugnet.general)

  Retailers stock fan-created designs? (was: Re: All plastic track)
 
(...) <snip> (...) Really? Lots of questions for you about this: Are you saying that big buyers like Target and Wal*mart might be able to stock fan-created designs? Would TLG present them with a selection of fan-created sets from which to choose, or (...) (19 years ago, 17-Aug-05, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Brickshelf theft
 
Sounds like maybe BrickShelf should invest in a watermarking capability, that would embed a hidden watermark in images you upload to your account. THEN THERE IS NO DISPUTING someone stealing your images, you could easily verify the watermark itself. (...) (19 years ago, 17-Aug-05, to lugnet.general, FTX)
 
  Have '87 Catalog with many alternate/different set names
 
Hey all, I was given a bag of Lego a few days ago that had a number of old set instructions along with a product catalog that has different names for almost all of the sets listed. According to the back, the catalog was printed in Germany by Frank (...) (19 years ago, 17-Aug-05, to lugnet.general)

So will this now be called Daimler-LUGNET? :) (sorry, car joke) Darrell ps Speaking for all the newbies, I'm glad this transition will mean LUGNET will continue in good hands. Thanks! :) (19 years ago, 14-Aug-05, to lugnet.general, lugnet.admin.general, FTX)
 
  Re: LEGNET to change hands while continuing normal operation
 
(...) Same here. I was worried when i heard the news about LUGNET perhaps being without leadership and future, but now i can sleep easier knowing it will be taking care of. (19 years ago, 16-Aug-05, to lugnet.general, lugnet.admin.general, FTX)

(...) I was so tired the morning I wrote this... STILL, I can't believe I made such a silly mistake in spelling. I didn't even -notice- it until almost 2 days later!!!

  Re: Brickshelf theft
 
(...) I recommend notifying Kevin Loch, who (as I understand it) can review and take action on situations like this. It does look incriminating, as both Takeshi's and Eric's folders have many more items in their respective folders, and the header in (...) (19 years ago, 16-Aug-05, to lugnet.general, FTX)

That's right Erik..... and with these 6 letters (3 German letters + 3 Scandinavian languages letters) we can complete the 6 extra alphabet letters that were produced by Lego from 1958-71, as seen here in Clark Stephens printed brick site.
