    5563 at LEGO Shop at Home —Paul S. D'Urbano
   Hey all, Was just browsing LSAH and noticed the 5563 Racing Truck under the name "White Tractor Trailer Cab". Hasn't this been discontinued for a while? Maybe this will be a "white" Christmas for some Model Team fans who missed this one before... (...) (22 years ago, 6-Dec-02, to lugnet.modelteam, lugnet.lego.direct)

   Maybe that's why it says 'Not available' in Holland. I guess it's one of those 'we found a few boxes on a shelf' that's only available in one or two markets... Duq "Paul S.

     Well, if anyone overseas wants one, I can get one for them at cost with the following caveats/rules: They have to still be in stock ;-) 2 per person limit (though several people can have theirs shipped to one address to save shipping costs) Payment (...)

   Why don't start producing and sell those 'classic' sets? I think there's a great demand! Next to such sets I'm also in search of red Technic beams. And, you've guessed, they're not available at S@H ):-( (...) (22 years ago, 7-Dec-02, to lugnet.modelteam, lugnet.lego.direct)

     Dennis, I was just browsing on the Lego Pitsco Dacta site (which I know is US only), but they had a package of Red Beams: (16) 1x2 beam with hole (8) 1x4 beam with 3 holes (4) 1x6 beam with 5 holes (4) 1x8 beam with 7 holes (4) 1x10 beam with 9 (...)

      Joe, I don't know many beams I need exactly. Next year I would like to build a huge crawler crane (Mammoet) and first I have to study the real thing. Also I have to break off one of my current models which content a lot of red pieces. I know I have (...) (22 years ago, 7-Dec-02, to lugnet.modelteam, lugnet.lego.direct)

     (...) Even if you are not in the US, you can still get DACTA sets. For example, in Australia, Moore Educational (URL) sell this stuff, and the DACTA site has a list of all the suppliers in other countries. FYI, the cost in Australia is $16.50 (...)

   (...) They were going at half price here a couple of years ago, I bought three of them, my only regret now is that I didn't buy more! I would buy another now though right enough, it is a good set that one. Jennifer (22 years ago, 9-Dec-02, to lugnet.modelteam, lugnet.lego.direct)

   (...) You're right. You always should buy as many copies as you can. But as always, you're too late! The same concerns the Black Cat. When it was introduced back in '97 I bought one copy. The year after I bought my second one. When my mother said (...) (22 years ago, 9-Dec-02, to lugnet.modelteam, lugnet.lego.direct)
