Well, not necessarily. My Railroad Crossing (rats, it seems that there
are no URLs for individual models, so I can’t point you directly to it)
|
And that is a feature we really need, at least at some point. How else can
we talk about stuff (except by asking people to search by name?) More
importantly, how else are we going to publicise our models and drive
incremental sales into the system and help make LF a big success?

Hmm. If you dig around in the page source for the model pop-ups, you can
find the lxf file:

and the thumbnail:

Of course, an URL that goes right to the model would be a lot nicer.

Good hacks. Can someone else follow those links and buy the model though???
I’m thinking not.

Well, try this:
http://shop.lego.com/Product/?p=LFH001&mid=36E88CAD-352F-4A46-A594-CA28229B54A8
I went to the gallery, found the railroad crossing, opened the popup and did
a price check...that gets you to a webpage.
You can also email your model to someone. For use on LUGNET, though, this
would be the way to go.

Cool! And the ‘Building Instructions’ link gets you the .lxf file. Great work!
Replacing everything after “mid=” with everything after the last slash in the
.lxf and .jpg links gets me a link to my Yellow Jet:
http://shop.lego.com/Product/?p=LFH001&mid=f376e653-c50d-47bf-904f-80bd5c33bdbf
It looks like you can’t buy two different LEGO Factory models in the same order
- they both have the same SKU (LFH001), and there’s a one per customer limit.
When I tried to add my model to the cart after adding Joe’s, I get this:
# Oops: You have exceeded the maximum number allowed for this item. No more
of this item can be added.
