 | | A Trip Worth Taking!
|
|
My wife and I met Peter Barth, another IndyLUG member, at Dan Brown’s Toy and Brick Museum in Bellaire, Ohio on Friday April 11 to see what it was all about. Like this post’s title says, it was well worth the trip. I was so impressed that I wanted (...) (16 years ago, 13-Apr-08, to lugnet.loc.us.oh, lugnet.general, lugnet.events, FTX)

(...) When our local Store manager went back to Enfield for a management meeting, a similar request was one of the suggestions that he took to TLG from BAYLUG. Basically, I asked them to roll an extra tub of pellets through and put the stock in the (...) (16 years ago, 11-Apr-08, to lugnet.general, FTX)

(...) There are certain elements that I'd pay a nice premium to be able to get in specific colors. Do you hear that, LEGO? You have customers that want to spend lots of money on your product, if you can figure out a way to make it happen. We want (...) (16 years ago, 11-Apr-08, to lugnet.general, FTX)

(...) Agreed, for LEGO Imagination Stores, yes this will be difficult; they're very high traffic. But for some of the smaller stores, no. But it comes down to some information vs. no information at all. In my case, I'd rather have some information (...) (16 years ago, 11-Apr-08, to lugnet.general, FTX)

(...) Sorry to respond to my own post, but there's a few more thoughts I had... I want to keep iPaB's information up-to-date and accurate; I really DON'T want to cause issues for LEGO retail stores. I can see LEGO retail stores getting phone calls (...) (16 years ago, 11-Apr-08, to lugnet.general, FTX)

At the time, I was in the store gathering information about what's on the wall for a commercial project our (...) (16 years ago, 11-Apr-08, to lugnet.general, FTX)

How easy can we make it for someone to update this data? I work with quite a few stores, but honestly getting a full run down on parts is hard, if it was easy enough/brought in some extra business for the stores, I could see them maybe updating it?? (16 years ago, 11-Apr-08, to lugnet.general, FTX)

This is not fully LEGO-related, but for the past several years I have been hosting semi-regular "Puzzle Parties" at my house. This last weekend the Party included a puzzle/challenge for teams that involved building a large egg made from LEGO bricks. (...) (16 years ago, 9-Apr-08, to lugnet.general)

I still have the color border around the parts... I can remove (...) (16 years ago, 9-Apr-08, to lugnet.general, FTX)

And it depends on the type of part -- they once dumped some of the BaM (Build-a-Minifig) accessories on the PaB wall, so those (...) (16 years ago, 8-Apr-08, to lugnet.general, FTX)

I had always wanted an easy way to have my parents pick up stuff from the PaB wall, without knowing how to find out what was there, or how to tell them what to get. If this is updated anywhere regularly, it could help a bunch! PaB seems much more (...) (16 years ago, 8-Apr-08, to lugnet.general, FTX)
