(...) A fair number of *AFOLs* liked them, at a *huge* discount. That's bad for TLC one of two ways: If we're a significant part of the market, make us sets we want to buy at full price and don't take the hit on margins, because we're big enough to (...)

I would say that until bulk ordering is up and going full speed we need the parts packs. At the moment the parts packs are offering pieces (doors, windows, minifig accessories, corner roof pieces, a larger selection of plates) that are not available (...)

(...) That's good to hear Todd. I think it's wise for TLC to leave LUGNET's market alone. LUGNET continues to improve at a pace that suits most users needs, or so I would hope. It meets mine. Really is time I sent you my membership fees too. :-) I (...) (26 years ago, 4-Aug-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)

Does anyone remember Lego Island? I still have it and wish that they make another sequel to it. It was made in early 1996 and had the '96 Town System Line-up. I wish they would make an updated version. Also it would be great if they had there own (...) (26 years ago, 4-Aug-00, to lugnet.lego)

My wife just found this game in a bargain bin at Best Buy in Nashville for $4.99!!! I think it is a great LEGO attempt at a simple adventure game... I want a RPG that includes the TOWN, or any other theme... That would be cool.... Gene (26 years ago, 5-Aug-00, to lugnet.lego)
