I don't know if anyone else has seen this, but in the gift buying guide in the November 27 issue of US News & World Report there is a review of the movie maker set: "Lego & Steven Spielberg MovieMaker Set ($180) - Kids can capture their (...)

"Frank Filz" <ffilz@mindspring.com> wrote in message news:3A250DB9.773C@m...ing.com... [ ... massively snipped but relevant to Life on Mars ... ] This morning at breakfast I gave a 2001 catalog to my five year old son. After he looked through it, I (...)

(...) Correct, excluding which aliens might be in the large set, there is no duplication of aliens. (...) I disagree, I think the new blue in 7313 is the blue in the new range of greyish colors. This light blue is somewhat greyish, but not as grey (...) (24 years ago, 29-Nov-00, to lugnet.year.2001, lugnet.reviews)

Just thought I'd drop in a few comments of my own, having grabbed a couple of Life on Mars sets from the local TRU. First off, some overall comments about the theme - looks like LEGO is getting its groove back. These models are interesting, (...) (24 years ago, 29-Nov-00, to lugnet.year.2001, lugnet.reviews)

Cute. This set is so cute, and has so many cool pieces in cool colours -- I want 50. An entire army of Altairs. heh heh. This was a very fun set to construct, play with and look at. Even the die hard castle guys can't disagree -- and I am/was/am (...) (24 years ago, 29-Nov-00, to lugnet.org.ca.vlc, lugnet.reviews)

I've built a bunch of the 2001 sets, I've got all but the largest sets in these two themes (7317 was not to be found in my local stores and since I don't have a USB port, I will be waiting to buy 1349 until I can get it on sale). I haven't built all (...) (24 years ago, 29-Nov-00, to lugnet.year.2001, lugnet.reviews) !

(...) Have to agree with Brad H. now that I've picked up all the 11 Shell promo sets. They are in my opinion some of the better Town System sets since at LEAST 1996. I think LEGO may have been targeting us AFOLs with this offering, and since Town is (...) (24 years ago, 28-Nov-00, to lugnet.town, lugnet.reviews)

(...) I was really glad to see the green 1x2 inverted slopes. They will let me delay a bit longer in buying the movie studio set (of which the bulk of it's value will be useless to me until I spend more money on my computer - I don't have USB). The (...) (24 years ago, 28-Nov-00, to lugnet.reviews)

(...) Yeah, I think so. The blue color is also in <set:7317 7317 Aero Tube Hanger> and the <set:7313 7313 Red Planet Protector>, I think. It's hard to distinguish on the box and on the instructions, on the box it looks like dark blue, on the (...) (24 years ago, 28-Nov-00, to lugnet.reviews)

#7312 -- Looks pretty good, fair price for the element count. I think the new blue color is only okay. I am not sure about TLC experimenting in new colors before we get some of the elements we have been seeking in the same old colors. I don't see (...) (24 years ago, 27-Nov-00, to lugnet.reviews)
