Thanks John. Now I feel dumb. I should have paid closer attention to Brad
Justus' post which I know I read way back when. I guess this is why I was

PS: To LEGO Direct, despite my obvious disappointment about missing this
one, I'm very happy that you have done these classics re-releases even if
they're just available for a short time. Thanks and I hope you keep doing them!
