Gail and Jean-Marc Thanks for not going too crazy at the Mic Mac TRU. I did my part today by picking up 4 Yodas as well as an assortment of smaller SW sets. The Creator buckets are almost gone though. John Battcock (21 years ago, 23-Jun-03, to lugnet.loc.ca)

(...) Hmm. I'm not sure I like that analogy. I think playing with Lego is a healthy, positive thing to do. But, it definitely is true that shopping for Lego with other Lego fans is hard on the credit card (and the space!) (21 years ago, 22-Jun-03, to lugnet.loc.ca)

(...) It should work like that, yup. They ran through all of Derek's purchases at once and checked in the three buckets and they all went through reimbursed free. We ran out of free buckets in the store we were at :) Calum (21 years ago, 22-Jun-03, to lugnet.loc.ca)

That is one of, if not the, best layout I've ever seen. I can tell a lot of work went into that. The only thing I could find wrong with it is the lack of more colors of certain roof pieces, which is, of course, the fault of LEGO Direct. I can't (...) (21 years ago, 4-Jun-03, to lugnet.loc.ca, FTX)
