Um, because their big and important customer asked them to do so, and paid for the pellets specifically to produce this particular set, not so you, John Neal can have your fantasy GP38s in a color scheme never seen on a GP38 in the wild(and (...)

Hi, very poor try of irony, Larry, you normaly write better ones ;-) To make a serious theme out of this: It's for sure a good deal for TLC when Mearsk wanted them to re-release the ship. But that they now decided to make the same model again (...) (20 years ago, 19-Dec-04, to lugnet.lego)

They would have to wait while TLC developed a new set and got approval for it from Maersk, developed new instruction (...) (20 years ago, 19-Dec-04, to lugnet.lego)

| | | | | | | Hello! (...) For me (for me) Maersk blue was always quite useless, in terms of building.
