Background: This is it! The coolest set LEGO town set has ever made (okay, maybe that 6399 is, but I've had that one forever). I purchased this set MISB just two months ago from someone who found one lying around in a store in Italy. I love it! My (...) (25 years ago, 24-Mar-00, to lugnet.reviews)

As I've been checking out the arctic sets on the shelf and in S@H, I get the feeling that they've been strongly influenced by the Star Wars theme. Those windows (...)

I've had this set for about a month now and have incorporated over 90% of the pieces into structures. I think it is an excellent set with a lot of special pieces. I was annoyed with the excessive "bagging" of parts, but this seems typical of all (...) (25 years ago, 8-Mar-00, to lugnet.reviews)

Ok I have to admit that I was looking forward to the arctic stuff when I saw the preliminary photos online last year. New colors are good, and I basically thought it was a "cool" idea, no pun intended. I picked up #6575 yesterday at TRU, it appears (...) (25 years ago, 7-Mar-00, to lugnet.reviews)

Apart from the fact that a symmetric boat might look a bit odd. Prior to reading the post, I viewed the (...) (25 years ago, 1-Mar-00, to lugnet.reviews, lugnet.underground)

I just got a bunch of Belville sets, and just finished building the Royal Coach. The coach is built on a 10x21x5.3 base. Only the front bench and the footrest are molded in, the two rear benches are built of bricks and plates. An apparently new (...) (25 years ago, 29-Feb-00, to lugnet.belville, lugnet.reviews)
