In additon to your comments the page syas something about Issue #1. Perhaps Lego took up the idea a fan- web zine? (after all the non-action when I tired to get an independent one started :-) !!)

Warning, uninformed speculation ahead. That annoys some people (and their annoyance, in turn, bemuses others). (...) I think this is the very MOST that we can hope for and it is in fact a stretch.

(...) I think you have a very valid point here! If we will be enabled to create models using any part that has ever been created, it will mean the end of those ridiculous prices you see on Ebay... However, I doubt that that will be the case. I can't (...) (24 years ago, 7-Dec-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)

(...) Actually, I think LEGO would benefit greatly (as in, money in their pockets) if they offered the desireable parts because they are simply desireable! However, I'd have mixed feelings about it. On the one hand, it's great that I can get huge (...) (24 years ago, 7-Dec-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)
