| I just picked up a couple of #5's today, and that new color (violet) is awesome! I hope they make lots of pieces in that color. (...) (25 years ago, 11-Nov-99, to lugnet.general, lugnet.promo, lugnet.basic)

| (...) I dunno, I put Pokemon in almost the same boat as Sanrio/Hello Kitty, which is still around. Plus Nintendo is milking the snot out of Pokemon. In Japan there is already released two Pokemon games for the N64 called Pokemon Stadium (1 & 2) (...) (25 years ago, 10-Nov-99, to lugnet.promo)

|
| (...) OK -- got it! It's not blue, and it's not purple, and it's not even indigo -- but in fact it's violet -- the same exact hue as the new DUPLO Dinosaur. :) Waycool! Here's a webpage from April showing a comparison of LEGO "purples"... (URL) it (...) (25 years ago, 10-Nov-99, to lugnet.general, lugnet.promo, lugnet.basic)

| So how many other parents are going to have to battle the kids over which fast food place to go to? Hubby's gone for the week, I'm thinking "cool, I don't have to cook, the kids will be happy with McD. & we'll get our fill of the sets." But nooooo, (...) (25 years ago, 9-Nov-99, to lugnet.promo)
