In no special order...
10. The catalogue appearing in January (or before) or in June for the half
year one.
(Does LEGO move so fast that they don't know in August 01 what's out for
Dec'02? really? whatever happened to planning)
9. Said catalogues without spelling errors in grammatically correct English.
(sure I don't speak Danish, but I could make up better fluff text off the
top of my head, who is Sam Sanister? and where in STAR WARS is the planet of
NBA?)
8. A LEGOLand Theme park
(much as the Gold Coast is a lovely place...)
7. A lifesize technic car
(I assume everyone's seen the huge 8880 thing LEGO Danmark put together?)
6. A Fan-Built Dinosaur/Person/large scuplture.
(see Henry Lim's awesome stego he built, or any of Eric H's works)
5.An Australian Shop@Home exclusive. Some set available at a special price
only for Australians
4.A nationality (or Australian company) specific promo set.
(see the pink German Telecom bikes or numerous ferry and airline sets)
3.A Grand Pirate fleet to rival a BRICKFEST/Piratefest gathering
(And yes I do know most of those ships belong to ONE person)
2.A World Record LEGO train track attempt.
(If it does happen, call me, I'm free anytime for this...)
1.B*gg*r, I'm out of ideas, Anyone else got a number one for the list?

| (...) Well, having seen Legoland Windsor recently, I can say that a lot of Legoland is basically generic theme park using Lego motifs (like castle, pirates, etc) and not really Lego-specific. However, the place seemed really well run, and seemed to (...) (23 years ago, 19-Jun-01, to lugnet.loc.au)
