Hi all!

Catalogs for 2000 have turned up, but I haven't heard anything new about
spare part sets in 2000. There have been some rumours that this service
was going to be discontinued. At least here in Europe, there normally is
a service catalog in most sets as well as a normal (sets) catalog. Is
that the case in the US too? If so, what service catalog did you find
with your 2000 catalogs? One from 1999? One from 2000? Or none at all?
(And if you didn't find any at all, is that normal or not?)

Worried regards,

Johannes.

The US doesn't get catalogs like that.  The only way to get spare parts packs
is to order them through Shop at Home.

However, some sets come with a small LEGO Direct catalog which is part
of a S@H catalog. Certainly within the past few years, those have
sometimes had some of the parts packs, though they have been dropping
off.
