  Re: 3033 on the shelf again?
 
(...) I bought 120 tubs last week and am unpacking them now. Only have 24 here, the rest to be picked up weekend after next from layby. I started documenting the batch codes (4 digits, printed in black on side of tub) and the contents within. Only (...) (22 years ago, 22-Jan-03, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.loc.au)
 
  Re: 3033 on the shelf again?
 
(...) Hmmmm interesting. There's a query about this here (URL) and my inventory (in the reply)matches the peeron inventory. There's a dearth of 3033s available in Aus right now, has anyone in aus seen one with different brick counts? ROSCO (added (...) (22 years ago, 21-Jan-03, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.loc.au)
 
  Re: 3033 on the shelf again?
 
(...) <snip> (...) There is definitely two types of 3033s. I have one American version wich has the same contents as shown at Peeron. I also have 2 Australian 3033s an they do indeed have more 1x4s and less 1x2s. But I agree - it's weird, that they (...) (22 years ago, 21-Jan-03, to lugnet.lego.direct)
 
  Re: 3033 on the shelf again?
 
(...) So you're saying there's a blue tub widely available in Asia, and it carries the set number 3033 but it has a different inventory? That's really weird. Lego has released a number of new and different basic brick assortments lately here in the (...) (22 years ago, 21-Jan-03, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego.direct)

Hi, I rang S@H in the U.K and asked about discount on bulk items,the girl told me that there was and on all bulk items.I just had to order them she didn`t ask me about a code.She explained it like this buy 15 you get 15% off. Buy 20 you get 15% off (...) (22 years ago, 21-Jan-03, to lugnet.lego.direct)
 
  Re: Which items that are valid for discount in Europe?
 
(...) Following Fiona question, I'd like to get more info on this AFOL23. The last time I order on S@H from France, the lady and her manager had never heard of such a code !!! Could you please clarify thing and manage that we (Europeans) get the (...) (22 years ago, 19-Jan-03, to lugnet.lego.direct)
 
  Which items that are valid for discount in Europe?
 
Hi, Just before I place an order at Shop at Home I was wondering if you could clarify which bulk pack items are valid for use with the AFOL23 discount code. I think I have read that it is only brick and plate packs, but in the States it seems that (...) (22 years ago, 17-Jan-03, to lugnet.lego.direct)
 
  Re: Cool, received Main Street Legend 10041 today!
 
(...) Yes, and they have changed the bricks under the rails too. There is now a blue 2 x 6 brick at each end instead of the 1 x N pieces, but the old pieces are still included in the set... BTW. There is an error in the instructions. It doesn't show (...) (22 years ago, 14-Jan-03, to lugnet.town, lugnet.lego.direct)

  Cool, received Main Street Legend 10041 today!
 
And what a cute and lovely set it is!!! Very nice vehicles and town people. Super great "real" buildings. Cool details. And the crane is fine too. I love this set. :-) Lots of playability. I really like how those construction workers can build the (...) (22 years ago, 13-Jan-03, to lugnet.town, lugnet.lego.direct)  
 
  Re: 8431 Sold Out -- "DISCONTINUED", backorders in USA!
 
(...) I don't know what to think about such things. The fact the prices on bricklink is high does not automatically mean they are actually *selling* any for those prizes. But eBay. Those must be collectors bying and they are free to do what they (...) (22 years ago, 13-Jan-03, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: 8431 Sold Out -- "DISCONTINUED", backorders in USA!
 
(...) Hi All, If you look on SAH, 8431 now says "Backorders Accepted, will ship by 21 Feb 2003" for USA. Another AFOL alerted me about the 8431 backorder and said that he already ordered it and it shipped the next day! To be honest, I hesitated in (...)

  Re: Is Lego false advertising the new 2003 sets?
 
I suspect it is just really good box art (or really bad depending on how you look at it). LEGO has done this in the past with other sets, most notably the Trans-Neon-Green color. Troy "Mark P" <mark@landofbricks.com> wrote in message (...) (22 years ago, 9-Jan-03, to lugnet.lego.direct)

  Re: Is Lego false advertising the new 2003 sets?
 
Mark, Good question about the "light up" aspects of the box artwork. But I don't think it is false advertising. Just good artwork. (1) I call it artwork because most toys are shown "in a fantasy situation" on the box front to catch the child's eye. (...) (22 years ago, 8-Jan-03, to lugnet.lego.direct)
 
  Is Lego false advertising the new 2003 sets?
 
Hey all, After looking at MARZ and seeing the awesome new Town and Train sets I found something that kinda bugged me. To see what I am talking about, look at these sets for an example: (URL) I see what looks like new electric light up parts. I was (...) (22 years ago, 8-Jan-03, to lugnet.lego.direct)

  Re: Now here's a big one.
 
I'm guessing that they never did actually "sell" that as a set, but rather it was just a promotional item they made. There was a big push in schools about the space program prior to the challenger launch because there was a school teacher going up. (...) (22 years ago, 6-Dec-02, to lugnet.lego.direct)

  Re: What a downer :-(

It may not be the easiest thing to swallow, but truth is like that. I agree with you on every other point, (...) (22 years ago, 4-Jan-03, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.technic)
