It is interesting how many mistakes are not made by Lego. When ever I am short
a piece I am totally surprised. For those who do not know, Lego will send
replace pieces free, even when you lose them. I steped on a blue airtank,
called Lego asking for one, and a week later got two in the mail. Also, if
memory serves, the 10020 sante fe chief, special edition came out with two
pieces taped to the box. Also the frist Legend set had white horses taped to
the outside and brown ones on the inside. I also have come across erreta sheets
in the instructions now and then. Considering how many sets that were produced
it is rather amazing that there are not more. It will interesting to see if the
quality control is maintained with Lego's new outsourcing. Already I have
noticed that the turntables come in two separate pieces rather than assembled.
Both the small 2x2 and the larger 4x4.
