I would actually prefer one in tan, for that real "crusader" feel. (...) (22 years ago, 30-Jul-02, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Official posts at a glance
 
(...) ya, it's a web-only thing. (...) Yes and no... Yes, thought about it a bit. No, didn't write any code toward that. IMHO, anyone sophisticated enough to be using a real newsreader is also sophisticated enough to recognize an @lego.com address (...)

  Re: The LEGO Company is invited to post everywhere!
 
(...) Thanks for the invitation, and we cordially accept! Thanks to Suzanne and Todd for their consideration in this issue. We met with them to discuss this, among other things, at BrickFest, and it is great to see such a quick turnaround on their (...) (22 years ago, 30-Jul-02, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.lego.direct) !

(...) Could you provide a deep link to allow us to see a "teaser" view until the brickshelf folder has been approved for public view? Ben (22 years ago, 30-Jul-02, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.castle)

(...) So Richard, Manfred and all others I built them both in LDraw (Nothing like a site): (URL) personal faviourt is light gray altough Richard have a point since dark gray is much harder to find We live to build Yaron Dori (22 years ago, 30-Jul-02, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: $Here’s the Deal$
 
(...) More candidates: Ice Planet 2002 version of the BT2 allied avenger (I've seen someone do this already and it is a REAAAAALLY good idea). Actually, it'd be really cool to see more space done in different colour variants. Also, it'd be cool to (...) (22 years ago, 30-Jul-02, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.general)
 
  Re: $Here’s the Deal$
 
(...) Hi Richard, I agree 100% on the idea of 'Variants'. I am even convinced that has by far more market potential as the 99,8% copies which are now sold as 'Legends'. But for the 375 castle, I would strongly recommend to make it in sandcolour tan. (...) (22 years ago, 30-Jul-02, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Official posts at a glance
 
Of course, this does no good whatsoever for people who use newsreaders (you know, those things for reading, uh, news). Have you looked further into appending footers/headers when they want to make an official announcement? (...) -- Tom Stangl (...) (22 years ago, 30-Jul-02, to lugnet.lego.direct)
 
  Recycle symbols
 
I have noticed that the various bulk offerings are in a bag of recyclable plastic, and they display fairly clearly the triple-arrow recycle symbol, which is definately a good thing. Kudos to whoever it was that designed the packaging for including (...) (22 years ago, 29-Jul-02, to lugnet.lego.direct)
 
  Re: $Here’s the Deal$
 
(...) ~My _Magic 8-Ball_ says that: “All signs point to Yes!” But seriously, quite a few people already expressed interest; Tom Stang: would have done a gray 375, I would have voted for it instantly. Allan Bedford: I would as well. I could turn it (...) (22 years ago, 29-Jul-02, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.castle, lugnet.general)

  Official posts at a glance
 
(...) Cool idea -- nice to be able to distinguish visually. We're actually going to try something a little different than coloring the topic/subject title... an idea from long ago: on the web interface, we're going to display an itty bitty red (...)

  Re: $Here’s the Deal$
 
Hm, very tantalising subject. Do we still do polls somewhere in the community? If so, I'm very curious about the outcome of the following question: Would you buy a re-issue of set #375/6075 (Yellow Castle) preferebly in a Light and/or Dark Gray (...)

  New way for LEGO to gauge interest in sets?
 
One of my other hobbies is borad games, especially what are commonly referred to as "German Games" and wargames. One of the U.S. game manufacturers, GMT, was having a hard time making ends meeet a few years ago, because new games weren't selling as (...)

  Re: $Here’s the Deal$
 
(...) Hey, it’s just a start, we just can’t plan on going sub-orbital on the first attempt. There’s far more potential in this concept…but initially I honestly believe that to create a 375/6075 Yellow Castle in Dark Gray would be the perfect launch (...)

  Re: $Here’s the Deal$
 
(...) Indeed this is a better idea…and even extends the concept of variants to include color but not be limited solely by such. However, I think it is most prudent to take ‘baby-steps’ with Lego Direct. Nothing too dynamic, that’s why a simple color (...) (22 years ago, 29-Jul-02, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.general)
 
  Re: $Here’s the Deal$
 
(...) [Thank-you] See, now TLG has no reason not to go forward with “Variants.” ~Cause it’s been done before, precedent has been set! :) --==RïçhårÐ==-- (22 years ago, 29-Jul-02, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.general, lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: $Here’s the Deal$
 
(...) Not so, because in ‘infinite-time’ anything is possible… Therefore it is to be expected in some shape or form “one-day.” (...) T’would be nice also… But I just choose Dark Gray cause it’s not as readily available as other colors. Plus, any (...) (22 years ago, 29-Jul-02, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.castle)

(...) Aha, are you pondering what i'm pondering? I want to see a revamp of the technic back hoe released in 1989. Improvements: 1)pneumatics on the front bucket 2)pneumatics 3 times longer than the orignals 3)pneumatically powerd rotary motors (...)
