(...) ;-) The prices appear to be very reasonable indeed. The assortement of basic bricks is still a bit narrow, with no 1x2 or 1x1 bricks, for example, but people who need bulk basic bricks probably don't need the small ones, anyway. When it comes (...)

  bulk ordering is here!
 
Greetings! After a somewhat longer-than-intended absence, I’m back, and with good news: LEGO Direct is pleased to announce that bulk sales from LEGO start today, June 14. Our first bulk releases include standard bricks (1x4, 1x6, 1x8, 2x2, 2x4, 2x8) (...)

  Re: Why Lego, Why
 
(...) I don't think that this is meant to be a substitute for the pneumatic system. It's just a fancier shock absorber. [ ft -> .technic ] (24 years ago, 12-Jun-00, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: Why Lego, Why
 
Is that like those compressed-air automatic door dampeners and closers? IMHO, that's a really poor substitute for real pneumatics, and is in no way hydraulic. I don't mean to be sounding mad or anything, but can't TLG stick with something that (...) (24 years ago, 12-Jun-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)
 
  Re: Why Lego, Why
 
(...) They have new cylinders which they call hydraulic. They're actually spring-based shock absorbers with a pneumatic cushion -- no real hydraulics involved at all. And unlike the old pneumatic system, they can't be interconnected. (24 years ago, 12-Jun-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)
 
  Re: Why Lego, Why
 
Hydraulics? I can't ever remember seeing any mention of LEGO developing hydraulics. If they are going to be using hydraulics, though, I think they'd better be using better hoses and fittings, fluid isn't that easy to hold under pressure. -- Cheers (...)

  Why Lego, Why
 
This is to Brad. Why is Lego not making pneumatics. I ordered to sets of hoses, switches, and cylinders and only got the cylinders. Is the hydraulics taking over? If they are I wish they would make cylinders you can control like the pneumatics. Adam (24 years ago, 10-Jun-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)
 
  Re: LEGO Direct catalogs in Canada?
 
I am so luck!!!...!!! I got a Shop-at-home SRING 2000 catalog. If you want to see it, reply and I will put it up on my Webpage. But that doesn't mean it is up to date. I ordered from it and over half the stuff was discontinued. I was TICKED OFF! I (...) (24 years ago, 10-Jun-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)
