  Re: So where is Brad's answer to the 2001 info?
 
(...) Tom, you're right -- on all counts. It *is* ages later (in Internet time); but whether you like it or I like it, there are still parts of the world that move in regular old analog clock time (actually, most of the world does). We try not to be (...) (24 years ago, 20-Aug-00, to lugnet.lego.direct) !! 
 
  Re: 2001 Set info
 
(...) James Powell mentioned the bad news already on another thread (or was it another sub-branch of this huge thread?), but it bears repeating here for posterity... Here's a link to the Slashdot story for those who haven't seen it yet: (URL) (24 years ago, 20-Aug-00, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.publish)
 
  Re: PNLTC Presents a Guinness World Record LEGO Train Track Display
 
Well, I would just *have* to throw in another "me, too" to that one. At 40" per box and 48 boxes per case, that is 160 feet per case. I would definitely want to get about that much to make a really good switching yard. Mike Tom Stangl (...) (24 years ago, 18-Aug-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)
 
  Re: PNLTC Presents a Guinness World Record LEGO Train Track Display
 
That's what, 48 or 64 boxes per case? If they'd give us a bulk discount worth looking at, I'd want a case myself. (...) -- | Tom Stangl, Technical Support Netscape Communications Corp | Please do not associate my personal views with my employer (24 years ago, 18-Aug-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)

(...) Dear LEGO: How much to buy straight track by the case? ( (URL) ) I'm *sure* the GMLTC would be HAPPY to buy a case or two... JohnG, GMLTC (24 years ago, 18-Aug-00, to lugnet.events, lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.trains)
 
  So where is Brad's answer to the 2001 info?
 
So here it is, AGES later (in Internet time), and not one peep out of Brad. On something so important they tapped Todd on the shoulder and requested a removal. Brad, what happened to the idea of COMMUNICATION??? You're slacking BADLY on one of your (...) (24 years ago, 18-Aug-00, to lugnet.lego.direct) !!

  Re: 8458 Silver Champion is incredible!
 
Whoa, what? Discontinued? Granted I've only ever seen one 8448 in a brick & mortar store and that was months ago, but I assumed it would be in the Shop at Home catalog for the next year at least. I was going to order one in January or so, do I need (...) (24 years ago, 15-Aug-00, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.dear-lego)
 
  Re: 8458 Silver Champion is incredible!
 
(...) Uhh... I just faxed my order for the 8448 to lego S@H US... It was in the spring catalog... Did I make a bo bo? (...) (24 years ago, 14-Aug-00, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.dear-lego)
 
  Re: 8458 Silver Champion is incredible!
 
(...) According to rumor, there were trademark issues with the "Indy Storm" name, so they just decided to pull the entire model. Quite a shame! (24 years ago, 14-Aug-00, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.dear-lego)
 
  Re: 8458 Silver Champion is incredible!
 
(...) Wow hold on a minute! Just because 8457 and 8458 are released does not means 8448 is gone right away. 8445 was gone pretty quick though. I wonder if we will ever see a technic catalogue like the one in 1996... (24 years ago, 14-Aug-00, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.dear-lego)
 
  Strange pricing: 4222 vs 4288
 
In TRU there are two similar "Classic" building sets, 4222 and 4288. 4288 is the "Red Bucket" and 4222 is a box. 4288 contains 400 pcs. and 4222 contains 355 pcs. The part selection in both sets is similar; the notable difference is that 4222 has a (...) (24 years ago, 12-Aug-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego.direct)

(...) You mean set 5220 "Styling pack" as shown in the second catalogue for 2000 in Australia? It will ONLY be available from: (URL) will 5218, 5219, 5221, and 5222, according to the catalogue.

  Re: 2001 Set info
 
(...) One such example would be the Y-Wing+TIE set featuring Darth Vader on the box cover. It was the only source for that figure for over a year until the figure sets came out. The number of Y-Wing set sold would be greatly reduced if the figure (...) (24 years ago, 11-Aug-00, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: 2001 Set info
 
(...) I apoligize for adding to this bandwidth burning, even though I do enjoy a good debate. However, one thing about this bothers me and, for better or worse, I'd just like to throw it out: Will high bidders from the last Auczilla(s) receive their (...)

  Re: 2001 Set info
 
(...) No such decision yet. The DeCSS case is in progress right now, and those of us who care about freedom of speech and the web in general sure hope it'll come down the other way. In fact, an important question in that case is whether source code (...) (24 years ago, 10-Aug-00, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.admin.general)

  Re: 2001 Set info
 
(...) Some of us just want to know what _is_ acceptable here, so that we are not subject to arbitrary deletions. For example, if I post the URL of where I have 'the list' (hehehe, making it sound evil!), is that a violation of the LUGNET T&C? How (...)
