| | | The Legend idea was thrilling to me in June. I've since had some time to realize how bad it is, though. Problems: 1) Your mail-order-only / internet market is a bunch of older people like me who already have five Galaxy Explorers and thirteen Yellow (...)

| | | | | (...) I hate to argue against a fellow AFOL, but I've collected since 1978 and I have neither of the sets you mention. In those younger years, I was lucky to get one copy of a small or mid-size set in those themes. So, my point is, there are some in (...) (23 years ago, 23-Oct-01, to lugnet.lego.direct)
