HA HA! I think this is funny after reading everyone's assumptions with how they think these sets came up, LOL, very funny indeed, but it's nice to know that they are indeed genuine articles and not some black market do up.

Brad & All, (...) Thank you so much for clarifying this, I am excited. A briliant move, BTW, to put it in different packaging and different numbers, as it does not disrupt the previous items.

We *will* be (re)issuing several "classic" sets later this year: three Pirates items (Red Beard Runner, Armada Flagship, and Enchanted Island); two Technic items (Pneumatic Front-End Loader and Forklift); the Octan Gas (...)
