They actually look at Lugnet daily and steal ideas (at least I think).

Yes, an important part of Lego (in my opinion) is taking time. Makes you
feel proud of something when your done... like the time I assembled the
Explorien Starship, it was about 1 AM and I was soon happy to be done.

That's always fun. Wen I was little I usually needed my parents help, mainly
for finding pieces. The old Crystal Hydrolator Lab from Aquazone was one of
those sets.

Who can't? Of course, I may not be able to afford those so I'm going to
probally wait for the space re-release (hopefully Galaxy Explorer)

Yeah, I agree. I want to see a Lego Renassance soon, where Lego will start
making cooler Legos again. Blacktron III? Maybe I'm being too optimistic.
