This issue has Leslie Crowther on the front cover (apparently he was a
comedian then :-/ ), presenting a top Lego award to Lego General • Manager,

What else? Oh. Talk and pictures from the Brighton Toy Fair, and a plan • to
make a chess set, created by some Lego Modeller called David Lyall :-/

It also has a 'can you tell what it is yet' puzzle, which you build from
base up (following the plan), trying to guess what you are making :-)

Anyone have any knowledge of these things?

Steve.
