That does sound mad.... Insectoids winning a prize. I would have laughed out load if a classic space set had beaten all that new stuff! Scott A (URL) (27 years ago, 4-Oct-99, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.loc.us.tn.mem, lugnet.general, lugnet.loc.us.tn)

You are seeing Judges that aren't up on what Lego has brought out as stock models, that's where the problem comes in... they probably don't know that what the kids did wasn't their own creation made from the Lego... it's sad to see that stock Lego (...)

I went to the Mid-South Fair in Memphis. In the arts & crafts pavillion, they have a section where people (mostly kids) make art out of toys. (Most of the case was Legos.) What irked me so much was that some of the sets receiving ribbons and prizes (...) (27 years ago, 3-Oct-99, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.loc.us.tn.mem, lugnet.general, lugnet.loc.us.tn)

Is there anyone in 15 miles of Memphis that wants to meet for an LDraw/LEdit jam session, or just to compare "real" Lego ideas? James J. (URL) (27 years ago, 12-Sep-99, to lugnet.loc.us.tn.mem)

There is one (1) at the West Town Toys R Us. They also had a smaller "new" Technic set - a hopper of some sort I think. Good luck! Naji (27 years ago, 11-Sep-99, to lugnet.loc.us.tn.knx)

Surely *somebody* is out there. All the clearance sets keep disappearing. And what about Big Lots. Someone's scooping those, except for those stupid little 9.99 freestyle sets whose only redeming factor is the thick, green baseplate. Anybody? (...) (27 years ago, 1-Sep-99, to lugnet.loc.us.tn.nas)

Hi Mike, I wonder if the Knoxville market is large enough for a 'Brick Store'? Hmmm... Interesting idea. Adam (27 years ago, 27-Aug-99, to lugnet.loc.us.tn.knx)

I used to work for the Computer Labs when I was an undergrad. Around '94-'96.
