I don't know if this has already been reported, but the figs in Mickey mouse
sets have a similar mobility problem to the battle droids in that the feet
are joined :(

As to the question of new lines...It's more of the old catalogue, but with
extra sets in known lines.[ Paul, the RC car is even included :) ]

unfortunately, the AAT and MTT are not shown, but otherwise most of the sets
are there.[including the pod-race bucket.]

And remember..more scans coming tonight.

Are there any new lines in the catalog, or anything that even
looks remotely
new?  Or is it mostly expanding on existing lines?

Be particularly interested about new SW stuff in it.

Cheers ...

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 :)
