Quantas USED to have real Lego, I got some sets on my return flight from • SYD
to LAX... but I believe this is a non Lego, non compatible brand. I
inadvertantly bought something like this a long time ago, the studs are
smaller diameter and taller height, and the plastic is a bit different. A
number of airlines are stocking this very set (differing only in badging) • now.


Larry is quite correct - this Qantas set is _not_ Lego. Someone bought one
for me recently on their trip to Europe - the figures are kind of
interesting in that they have knees (and possibly elbows too, but I don't
have them in front of me). The actual plane itself is rather tawdry. I
recommend the set for the extreme completist only - better to look for the
British Airways promotional set 2769, which is a real Lego set, and
currently available as an in-flight gift. A good reason to fly British
Airways? ;-)
