  Re: Tan Spindle Fence (quarter-round)
 
P.S. (pre-script ;) ) Many of the pieces marked "yellow" in the list below are what most of us refer to as tan. Kevin (...) *snip* (...) (22 years ago, 19-Oct-02, to lugnet.general, lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.lego.direct)

  Re: Tan Spindle Fence (quarter-round)
 
Here's a quick snap I took of the contents. The wall panel is printed on two sides. One side is a wall appropriate for adding to the building in the large Spidey set. The other side appears to be have been designed for the cancelled third Spidey (...) (22 years ago, 19-Oct-02, to lugnet.general, lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.lego.direct)

  6472 no longer available in Europe!
 
I tried to purchase one set #6472 earlier today without success (I had tried yesterday and they were available, but I screwed up in the process and had to retry :-/). So I phoned LEGO Iberia to know if it was a temporary removal, but I was told the (...) (22 years ago, 18-Oct-02, to lugnet.town, lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.loc.eu)

  Re: Super Chief set not ready for prime-time // Super Chief no train set?
 
(...) Now that REALLY surprises me - can you give us any idea as to *why* lego farms this out? I could understand a motor assembly, but a set of train wheels seems to be well within the abilities of a plastics manufacturer.... even if the axles (...)

  Re: Super Chief set not ready for prime-time
 
I ment that I called up LEGO and they sent me a whole new set of wheels. THey had no problem with it. After replacing the old SF wheels with the new, I looked at what would cause the high friction. It looks like the outer most diamater of the wheel (...) (22 years ago, 16-Oct-02, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.lego.direct)
 
  Re: Yet more new slopes appearing in 2003 SW?
 
Maybe our clamoring for split slopes finally sunk in? ;-) Now all they need to do is make split versions of all the train slopes, and John Neal's head will explode over all the new 8/10/14/20-wide possibilities ;-) (...) -- | Tom Stangl, Sun ONE (...)

  Re: Missing item number in latest Shop At Home catalog?
 
Allan, What are the set #s of the individual sculptures? I'd like to look at them online. Try Kxxxx, where xxxx is the set # for each of the sculptures - odds are that one of those will work to pull up the entire set (like KS1256 is the complete set (...)

  RE: Any one else order this
 
Hi, I for one appreciate that these sets were made available at Shop@Home. I live in Canada and was never able to take advantage of them as a promo. Shell in Canada never did not carry these.

(...) Jake/LD, It should be easy for LD to check who they sold problem batches to as most of them will have been sold by via mail order(?). I wonder if this can be sorted that way? ;) Scott A (22 years ago, 16-Oct-02, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.lego.direct)
