Hello!

(...) All this attitude does is tell Lego that when they make a cool set for a corporate client, they are better off not offering it to the general public. Luckily for the sane amongst us, the public in general doesn't have this attitude. So the (...) (20 years ago, 21-Dec-04, to lugnet.lego, FTX)

All, As the saying goes... I have some good news and some bad news about the 10152 Maersk ship. I'm sorry it's taken me so long to post an update. We've been working on a number of things surrounding this set. As you certainly recall, the situation (...) (20 years ago, 18-Dec-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.lego.announce, FTX) !!
