(...) I haven't seen some of these packs available before now. Good to see the brown bricks from the catalogue appearing on the website, but why only 2x4 brown slopes? We need 2x2s, 3x3s and corners to make some decent complicated rooftops. Most (...) (23 years ago, 3-May-01, to lugnet.loc.uk)

(...) Maybe, but I suspect that Service was dropped (and this was over a year before Shop@Home) because it wasn't profitable. Too many sets for too few orders. The bulk brick selections are based around a different concept. These 'new' items are (...) (23 years ago, 4-May-01, to lugnet.loc.uk)
