Brad, In a word-'Thanks'. It's just this sort of validation that we AFOLs have been looking for. Congrats again to Dan and Lego Direct. I'll be buying my first castle set in close to 20 years very shortly. -Dave (23 years ago, 14-Dec-01, to lugnet.lego.direct)

I just wonder whether lego just want to control business or they realised that these sets actually have a wide interest. If this is the first one, then I hope the future will be brighted up with more.... Sonnich www.hot.ee/sonnich/lego/ Larry (...)

This is interesting for a couple of reasons - 1. It shows that Lego Direct is continuing to explore creative new ways of selling the brick. 2. This may, hopefully, be the tip of the iceberg for the promised "create your own set" method of selling. (...) (23 years ago, 14-Dec-01, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.general)
