Brad, please accept my thanks and congrats on such an incredible
achievement! I really think this is huge. From my personal
standpoint/opinion, it's far and away the most impressive announcement from
Lego that I can recall in a long time.
I still remember quite keenly how annoyed I was that I could only afford a
few copies of this set from the Shop-at-Home catalog, even at clearance
prices, back in my college days. To be sitting here reading this amazing
news -- and to just now have bopped over to the website and ordered a few,
for about the same price as almost 15 years ago -- is just...
Cool beyond words.
Which, I should add, is also my opinion of the Guarded Inn. I'd like to
echo Suzanne's hope that the original designers/producers of this set get to
share in all the warm glow of today as well. Forward some of these replies
around, would you?
Again-- Thank you!
Kevin

LEGO Direct is pleased to announce the arrival of a new product series: LEGO Legends. LEGO Legends are reissues of (...) (23 years ago, 8-Jun-01, to lugnet.lego.announce, lugnet.lego.direct) !!
