 LEGOLAND / *588 (-20)
  Suggestions???
 
We'll have our 9 and 5 year olds at Legoland in July. Any suggestions/recommendations for the trip??? I figure that I'll UPS the bulk brick purchases home (lol) but any other suggestions? (23 years ago, 24-Jun-01, to lugnet.legoland)
 
  Photos from my trip through US / Canada
 
Hi all, I finally got around to sorting out my photos (well some of them, anyway), and uploaded some of the ones I thought people might be interested in. So here they are: Legoland California: (URL) meeting, April 2001 (including Bricktopia): (URL) (...)

(...) I don't think that is true. (...) I think that so far, they have had these same bricks for several months... I am not complaining, these are a nice assortment. And no it wasn't me. I only bought 2 pounds or so of black tiles. ++Lar (23 years ago, 8-Jun-01, to lugnet.general, lugnet.legoland.california)

  Bulk parts at Legoland California
 
Sorry if this is old news, but I've been out of the lego loop for a while. I recently returned to Montana from a trip to California (look for a place to live), so of course one of the first stops was Carlsbad to buy a year's pass. While at the park, (...)

(...) I believe that the Maersk sets are still the only sets with *that* light blue color in them. I think there is a general misconception that LOM light blue & Maersk light blue are the same, which they are not. Jonathan (23 years ago, 12-May-01, to lugnet.general, lugnet.legoland)

Jake, They may be feeding you that line, and you may believe it, but it's simply NOT true. Take a very simple example - light blue. There were, what, TWO sets that had lt blue bricks/plates in them previous to this year, both Maersk sets? There is (...) (23 years ago, 12-May-01, to lugnet.general, lugnet.legoland)

  Re: Why Gary cannot go to Legoland.
 
I don't want to get into a heated argument here, but Kevin is very right. Legoland has part after part in colors NEVER produced in sets. All you need for proof is to walk around Miniland. While I don't much care what color Lego decides to make (...) (23 years ago, 11-May-01, to lugnet.general, lugnet.legoland)
