Well- I've decided that there is no longer a place for Lego in my life (sniff) and I need to clear up some space so I will be selling my Lego, so I'm posting here hoping for a local sale before e-baying. I have no patience for parting everything out (...) (13 years ago, 14-Jan-11, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, lugnet.org.ca.obb)

The elders amongst you may recall that I have a slight... appreciation for the 948 go-cart. It was, after all, the very first Technic set I received as a kid (circa 1977) and it was the biggest set I got after The Big Melt (tm). Here's some pics of (...)

(...) Good to hear that a Lego store is finally gonna be somewhat local (At least within driving distance). Too bad it's located in Toronto though. I'm not a big fan of T.O. and try to avoid going there if I can help it. I'm surprised they wouldn't (...) (14 years ago, 25-Nov-10, to lugnet.org.ca.obb, lugnet.loc.ca.on)

Here's an interesting tidbit of information I gleaned from a (non-LEGO related) reliable source-- A LEGO store is opening in March 2011 at Sherway Gardens in Toronto, Ontario If true, that'll be good for the many folks that weren't happy that the (...)
