I have two questions for the people in this bulletin board. The first question is why has Lugnet not put a section for Exploriens? They have all of the other themes except Exploriens. Please put a Exploriens section on this bulletin board. The (...) (23 years ago, 12-Jun-01, to lugnet.space)

(...) For the sake of further evidence, I own a classic space LEGO box that says '1978'. it was purchased in the USA (for me as a kid).

(...) The sets were made in December of 1978 but were labeled as 1979. This is an occurence that happens much too frquently in merchandising and I think that Lego simply confused people with that approach to their customers. (23 years ago, 21-Jun-01, to lugnet.space)
