      (...) I doubt that, Explore or Duplo, still the same stuff. Maybe they're going to kick Jack Stone's butt? (hope so). I think that pre-school is 4-6, and when I was young, I got wonderful sets such as 145 (lots of bricks, some roofs, some windows, (...) (20 years ago, 8-Jan-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general)

   (...) odd, i thought i read somewhere (maybe last year?) lego was doing well, and that creator and bionicle were expected to help sales a lot. did lego have their first gain in several years last year? maybe that's what i'm thinking of.
