If I remember correctly, 1188 is the number you get when you add up the
Peeron Inventory. I guess LEGO figured that the number of people willing to
count the pieces and bother to ring up and complain about 12 pieces would be
low enough to warrant the advertising the set as 1200 piece. I just don't
know why they didn't put 12 more pieces in it.

Thanks Brad you saved me from looking it up. But that still doesn't excuse
them I call it incorrect advertising of their product.
Speaking of complaining to LEGO, I have to ring them about faulty 8466 tyres
and dull gloss castle walls. Anyone had any intelligent response from LEGO
in Sydney (1800 number) or do they give you the run around until you hang up
? I'm guessing they will not like me due to the sheer about of LEGO I have
to return if they agree to replace it.
Let us all know how you get on with the people in Sydney I think we all are
a bit hesitant to ring them with any sob stories at the moment.
