| Just in-case you are not reading the general announce groups, I am adding this to this news group. So, you people at the Lego Imaginarium, contact us! We are really serious about getting a group of people together to discuss, play and/or debate (...) (25 years ago, 5-Apr-01, to lugnet.loc.us.mn)

| | | | | Hello...
|
| Hi everyone, I've been a fan of Lugnet for some time, and decided that is time to start posting some messages. I work at the Lego Imagination Center (LIC) at the Mall of America. I recogonize a few of the names of people who post here and look (...) (25 years ago, 5-Apr-01, to lugnet.loc.us.mn)
| | | | | Shopping spree
|
| Hit Rochester this weekend on my way back to Iowa. There must not be as many rabid fans of LEGO there, 'cause I found several really good deals. Hit: TRU (pretty lame selection here) 2 Wal-Marts(One of which I think was closing out or something, (...) (25 years ago, 6-Feb-01, to lugnet.loc.us.mn)

|
| (...) As far as I know (and I've traveled to lots of areas in Minn.), there are no Shell gas stations here. If someone can say otherwise, I'd like to know where they're at too! BK> (25 years ago, 1-Feb-01, to lugnet.loc.us.mn)
| | | | | Shell promos
|
| I'm in Norway, where the Shell promos 2535-44 were for sale in 1998, which was during my dark ages. But now I understand that those promos are conquering the US, and I do have my old exchange student-host-family in Roseville. Can anyone here in (...) (25 years ago, 1-Feb-01, to lugnet.loc.us.mn)
| | | | | LEGO at Fleet farm gas mart
|
| A couple of dino island sets have popped up at gas marts lately. I picked up the one with Sam Sinister and baby T. It's a good set you get two epaulets, two short ladder/grille pieces and a butterfly catcher style net with it. All in all not a bad (...) (25 years ago, 1-Dec-00, to lugnet.loc.us.mn)

| Hey folks, I've had the pleasure of building a Mindstorms Champsosaur, a prehistoric crocodile type creature, as part of an interactive exhibit for the Minnesota FIRST LEGO League and the Science Museum of Minnesota. The exhibit is in the Wonders of (...) (26 years ago, 29-Aug-00, to lugnet.loc.us.mn)

| | | | | Re: Amazing fire truck
|
| (...) I do have to agree that the Quint is not bad. I do like the new additions to the page, using the ResQ sets. I am especially impressed with the snow mobile and Snozzel. I too, have been building the 6 wide apparatus for sometime, but until (...) (26 years ago, 2-May-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.town, lugnet.loc.us.mn, lugnet.loc.us.va)

|
| (...) Thanks all for the kind words! When John Gerlach brought his amazing new 3.3 megapixel digital camera (with 340 MB Microdrive!) to our weekly G.M.L.T.C. meeting he kindly agreed to take pictures of some of my MOC's. He even burned me a CD with (...) (26 years ago, 1-May-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.town, lugnet.loc.us.mn)

| | | | | Re: Amazing fire truck
|
| (...) I figure that any scale is fine as long as you stick to it if you want to display your models together. For example, one of my semi's (the tanker) would work well with <set:2448>, but still dwarfs a four wide. My eight-wide (the trailer, not (...)

| | | | | Re: Amazing fire truck
|
| (...) Hey, I'm a 6-8 wide fan myself! I would never build a 4-wide truck in "minifig-scale." I consider 6-wide to be a better minifig scale, especially for trucks. --Bram Bram Lambrecht / o o \ BramL@juno.com ---...---oooo-----(_...o---...--- WWW: (...)

I was taking a shot at TLC for making *minifig* vehicles 4 wide. In fact, I have tried modeling 4 wide (...) (26 years ago, 28-Apr-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.town, lugnet.loc.us.mn)
| | | | | Re: Amazing fire truck
|
| (...) I stumbled upon this truck yesterday when the only pics on there were 3 of the Quint itself. Now I see there are pics of a school bus, U-Haul, and a medic unit also. Its a nice apparatus, with lots of detail, but its quite wide, a full 8 studs (...) (26 years ago, 28-Apr-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.town, lugnet.loc.us.mn)
| | | | | RE: Amazing fire truck
|
| (...) Hey! I sure hope you have your bestest asbestos suit on :-) As an avid 4-wide microfig modeller (those oversized minifigs are just too big), I can assure you that building detail into a 4-wide model is often a good way to explore new uses for (...)

Although not a new MOC (I think Bill built it last fall), this might be its (...) (26 years ago, 28-Apr-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.town, lugnet.loc.us.mn)
