(...) of (...) OK, but if TLC is already doing right as far as the windows go, why screw with it? Why not just produce less of the door pack? -Mike Petrucelli (21 years ago, 23-Apr-03, to lugnet.market.shopping)

(...) That's what BrickLink is for. If LEGO got the general proportion (average, across everyone) right, BL can smooth out lumps of freaky desire. (21 years ago, 23-Apr-03, to lugnet.market.shopping)

(...) NOOO...OOO! What about people who want the windows and have no intention of making a train, therefore no need for (or even want) the doors. (...) -Mike Petrucelli (21 years ago, 23-Apr-03, to lugnet.market.shopping)

Because they have a VERY large # of them. Bryan K's post is probably spot on. TLG never has seemed to have a clue about windows/doors - when have you EVER seen a door/window pack that had a proper ratio of doors to windows? I guess in LegoWorld, (...)

However you need 10 windows for each car. So to create your two cars, 2 packs of (...) (21 years ago, 23-Apr-03, to lugnet.market.shopping)

  Target - Hogwards Castle 75% off
 
My local Target moved the 4709 Hogwarts Castle to 75% off - $22.xx.
