Hm, I doubt it is the same 2000.2 catalog that has been around in Germany
for a month now. Ours also has this new cover with sets exploding from a
circle or something. There are plenty of URLs given as well, even the
release date of 8516 is excactly july. BTW, the "Boss" comes with black
wheels. You can see one attached to the side of the motorbike, even better
on lego.com.

Oh, and I also checked most of these URLs, thy are not open yet. Hm, did you
notice the new URL on page 4 as well? It's ' new.lego.com ' - similar to
news.lugnet.com, interesting isn't it?

I just got back from Target at Camberwell [Melbourne] and they had the new
catalogue for this year :)

It's 76 pages, with lego webpages to go with set/theme info, and lots of
descriptions.

I'll try and scan it tonight, and post the images. [WARNING: text WILL be
hard to read, as it's smaller and lighter than that in the 60's • catalogues,
so post a message if you'd like transcripts from a page(s).]

[What's happening...LA is based in Sydney, but Melbourne gets the lego
first?]

NOTE: on the cover there's a "Not all products listed are available". • Cover
is blue with a mixture of sets 'exploding' out of a circle in the centre • of
the page. Back cover is almost identical to 2000.1 catalogues.

Also if you buy a set for > $49, you can get a 1 year world club • membership
free. All you need to do is enclose the receipt....looks like we could get
more world club members [come on, everyone here in Aus will buy at least • one
set over $49 won't you?]

I'll post replies to any queries I get before 4 this arvo about what's
shown.

To start with: Roborider 8516 "THE BOSS" looks like a small winged technic
model with a motorbike [not roborider wheels either :) ] Orange, dark grey
and black [JULY release]

Technic tractor, F1 and 4WD also shown :)

Remember I'll do my best to answer queries posted in loc.au :)
