(...) That's neat - glad to hear they pulled off a PAB selection there. Do they hold you to the policy of not stacking bricks? (URL) there's a lot of wasted space in the bag... Ed (22 years ago, 7-Sep-04, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.loc.ca)

(...) Playmobile's and LEGO's themes have often run mysteriously parallel. I remember noticing that both companies were big into pirates at the same time, and the same for wild west. In fact, Fort Legoredo and Fort Eagle had very similar packaging. (...) (22 years ago, 7-Sep-04, to lugnet.market.shopping)

(...) This is cool. Finally Pick-A-Brick has come to Canada. Now I'm kicking myself for not taking my wife up on the offer to swing by St. Jacob's on the way back from Marineland the previous weekend. D'oh! How much did you pick up? Play well. Tim (...)

I was thinking of getting one of everything for the inventory but decided to take pictures instead. The red slopes and (...) (22 years ago, 7-Sep-04, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.loc.ca)

(...) Well, that's just my feeling, but it was based on a very quick comparison. I'd be interested to hear from someone who packed one of each, to see whether or not the large bag can hold $4 worth more than the small. (...) I don't think so. :( I (...)

Hi Allan, (...) Too bad I have to spent about 3 minutes finding the way, being my first time in Waterloo. Next time I will know to go for the small bags. Thanks. (...)

(...) Martin, I'll let doug confirm, but from what I can see in his pictures I think he captured every one of the buckets on the rack. Keep in mind, in some of the buckets they mix together 2 or 3 different shapes/sizes of the same colored element. (...) (22 years ago, 6-Sep-04, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.loc.ca)
