  Re: And the July Surprise is...
 
(...) IMHO.. Any time you put more than one kind of part into a pack, you run into the problem of how many of each to put in. This is true EVEN when the parts are "paired" like hinge tops and bottoms. So this is a real challenge. No possible (...) (23 years ago, 11-Jun-01, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.market.theory)

(...) My bad. Just walls, or bricks too? Maybe something like <set:3732> in red and black? Or a whole new set, a medieval townhouse maybe... --DaveL (23 years ago, 11-Jun-01, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.market.theory)
 
  Re: And the July Surprise is...
 
I'm very excited about the Legends perspective as well. But to me personally, there's one option that would really make this even greater: *Reruns in a different color from the original.* Why? Consider: - Variety. It would be more interesting to (...) (23 years ago, 11-Jun-01, to lugnet.lego.direct)
