Wow, I never knew they sold the 1775 set. I ordered a few, that is a *real* airplane, at least. Windows, hinges! Thanks for the info, Larry! Did they offer this before, or is this recently? Scott S. (...) (25 years ago, 19-Oct-99, to lugnet.market.shopping)

Quick follow up. The S@H rep did ask me how I heard about set. I did say "a Lego newsgroup on the Internet", but I should have mentioned LUGNET specifically. -- Bryan Larry Pieniazek <lar@voyager.net> wrote in message (...) (25 years ago, 19-Oct-99, to lugnet.market.shopping)

The LEGO rep did not ask me, I just asked if they were taking backorders for 1775, and she said yes, and I said "all right!" :) I should have told her, though. I guess I was too excited! Scott S.

Price is $19.75, just placed an order for four myself. No sense in placing an order for less than $75 these days ;-) She said they expect them the first week of November and estimated I'd have the sets around the 10th of Nov. -Mike (...) (25 years ago, 19-Oct-99, to lugnet.market.shopping)

(...) I saw this set on ebay, the seller states that it has 153 pieces. They also say that it was introduced in 1994, and they obtained it during a flight to England on TWA. High bid? $113.50 (URL) (25 years ago, 19-Oct-99, to lugnet.market.shopping)

They are $19.75 each (153 pieces). I'll throw out my usual offer - if you are not in the US, I will be happy to order them and send them to you at cost plus shipping, but I'll need to have them prepaid (too far over Lego budget for a few months).

Call back and ask about your order. When I asked about a free McDonalds set with my order of four 1775 my rep put me on hold to check with someone, so I assume she got an approval from her supervisor.
