Never been to the factory, but from the pictures I've seen, that's reasonable.

Yup :-( Understanding the true bulk ordering system a few of the NZ AFOLs
got and how long/hard it was to get...doesn't sould too fun.

Yeah.. :\ I don't believe any of mine would, because they aren't in the
factory end. Still, I think its sad they've decided to close this plant,
and hope its only temporary. And I hope some of the expected loss money is
due to the expenses taken on by the restructuring and Lego Direct until they
get reorganized, then it will be back in the black.
