So am I, obviously <g>. I poked around a bit. It's shockwave-heavy
(probably why some people couldn't see the little dancing minifig
advertising the change?) and it's pretty slow over my modem.
There's a button marked "shop" at the top, but it just leads to
legoworldshop.com and you can still only buy Mindstorms and Cybermaster
there.
Seems to be a new Technic set - 8450 - called "Mission" or something
similar, builds a stealth-looking plane, and links with Cybermaster. One
of the alternative models is a vehicle to carry bombs. That's what it
says right there. Non-violent, Lego??
The "Lego Finder" lets you pick your age (only runs up to 16 though) and
shows themes suitable for that age.
There's a poll as to how you like the new look. CHoices are "Awesome,
give me more", "better than it was", and "About the same as it was". No
choice for worse <g>.

| Well, it looks like the website got a facelift. I haven't poked around much, cause I'm way tired (and should have been in bed hours ago), but hey, I'm obsessive. It looks ok, and doesn't load too abysmally slowly over modem. James (URL) (25 years ago, 15-Oct-99, to lugnet.general)
