| | | Hello, I'm not sure if you remember me, but I used to be pretty active here before. About six months ago, I entered a short "dark age" but now I want to start building again, and posting on Lugnet. However... I picked up the 2002 catalog to see (...)

LEGO seems to be dropping the "Basic" sets from the shops in Denmark (I found _one_ single box in two shops last weekend), but I hope that it then at least will be possible to order (...)

| | | | | | (...) Yeah. I agree. There's some good stuff online, and hey, I've grown up with late 1990's and 2000's Legos, and I'm doing fine. If you can afford it, try bricklink or ebay! Parts are doing pretty good this year: lots of sets with nice parts. (...) (23 years ago, 14-Apr-02, to lugnet.people)

| | | | | | (...) Ebay and Lugnet are about the only thing that have kept me building, or for that matter, out of my dark age. I'm doing fine myself, as well. For the last year or so, I have avoided Bionicle, Jack Stone, etc, and focused my building talents on (...) (23 years ago, 14-Apr-02, to lugnet.people)

| | | | | | There's nothing really going on out of the ordinary here. This happens to at least one "large collection" person a year, if not more.

| | | | | | Yikes! My lego stuff is probably very much like your own, mass-wise. I don't really want to think about it any more than that though... Admittedly, some is not Lego proper, but I think you have the same clone thing going, right? -- Hop-Frog (23 years ago, 18-Apr-02, to lugnet.people, lugnet.general)
