Crazy? Perhaps a bit of an overstatement, but I'm excited to see those new (old) Pirate ships and that Technic front end loader! Lego has completely dropped the Technic line, its not on their website and only a tiny number are in the last catalog I (...) (23 years ago, 21-May-01, to lugnet.pirates, lugnet.castle)
