| | Racer 8644 considered cool (and $3+)
|
|
Yellow sporty racer 8644 is the coolest Lego set lately. Sure it has a lot of new-fangled pieces. But how the grill meets up with the wheel covers without attaching, that is sweet. The new thin tires with no Lego precedent: it is about time we had (...) (20 years ago, 22-Dec-04, to lugnet.reviews)

TRU has a $30 co-pack of Knight's Castle Wall and Vladek's Siege Engine ($20 ea. at S@H). I got that "Ooh, new Lego set" feeling and bought one. Some thoughts on the castle wall... Did Lego think modular castle wall? Close but no banana. Have to try (...) (20 years ago, 30-Oct-04, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.reviews, lugnet.castle)

(...) Just noticed, that there are two versions of set 7075; I bought a second set, labeled "limited edition" (same price), which included motor AND battery; when mounted, this acts as counter-weight and makes the ship float reasonably.

(...) By nose cone I meant this piece: (URL) I don't see why TLG would need to replace it since it a fairly new piece. (1994). I looked at the zoomed in picture on S@H and I couldn't see the holes for the studs. But I was relieved when I see they (...) (20 years ago, 24-Oct-04, to lugnet.reviews)

(...) Yeah, that's the one. At first I didn't notice it, but the openings are very visible in the nose of the plane. The pictures on the box do show the new elements (like this piece and the sloped windows), but the instructions show the old (...) (20 years ago, 24-Oct-04, to lugnet.reviews)

Disclaimer: this is my first review, so I'm not familiar with what a review _should_ look like. Anyways, here it goes: Set 10159 - City Airport is a re-release of set 6597. This means it is from a time when you could actually build a city with (...) (20 years ago, 23-Oct-04, to lugnet.reviews)
