Due to a rather involved set of circumstances that I won't go into now, I find myself the owner of a brand new 6477 Firefighter's Lift Truck. Ow. Ow ow ow. Putting this set together was almost painful. It would have been worse if I had paid $20 for (...) (25 years ago, 21-Feb-00, to lugnet.reviews)

Upon hearing that the Lego Outlets had 6038s, many people rushed to buy them. I, too was among them, bought three of these, and I'm not disappointed... The set features a carraige, two wolfpack minifigs, many weapons and a 'treasure'. I have to say (...) (25 years ago, 17-Feb-00, to lugnet.reviews, lugnet.castle)

Thank you for the correction. The set with parts has the ID #1030 but the building cards alone have the ID #1031. Weird. My mistake for not confirming the correct URL at Kevin Loch's Brickshelf. More importantly, now we all know that C S Soh dabbles (...) (25 years ago, 6-Feb-00, to lugnet.reviews, lugnet.build, lugnet.edu, lugnet.dacta, lugnet.technic, lugnet.books)
