I remember someone posting a message about a month ago saying that LEGO was
going to recall the Ogel Control Center sets because of some picture on the box
that resembled a terrorist attack. Soon after that I saw one in a store, and
sure enough there was a small cartoon pic of an explosion on a set of twin
towers. I thought it would be silly to recall them since it was obvious that
the cartoon had nothing to do with the September 11 attack.
Since then I've seen no indication that ANY store is pulling the set
from the shelves. I've seen plenty of Ogel Centers in Wal-Mart, Target, Toys R
Us and K-Mart. As far as I know the set is still readily available.

| (...) Seceral WMs that still had this on the shelf, were unable to complete the sale at the checkout. The register showed 'SELL NOT ALLOWED', at which point they all looked at each other and said "sorry, were not allowed to sell this". Ray (23 years ago, 19-Nov-01, to lugnet.market.shopping)

| Does anyone know if this has been re-released yet. I still see it on the shelves of some stores - and I just saw that it was in Toys 'R' Us' Holiday catalog with $5 off. Just curious... (23 years ago, 19-Nov-01, to lugnet.market.shopping)
