No, to keep their site up-to-date. OK, I guess it could have been interpreted that way. Does anybody have an idea of the structure within TLG that handles the website? It's a safe guess that a team or department is responsible for the up-keep. I (...) (23 years ago, 28-Nov-01, to lugnet.starwars)

I think comparing the Star Wars LEGO Sets with the Harry Potter sets isn't really fair. The Star Wars sets have essentially all been vehicle sets, whereas with Potter, aside from the train, they are all playsets. Designing a LEGO playset and a LEGO (...)

Stupid, isn't it? If TLG takes such an alleged interest in LUGNET, FBTB, etc...one would think they prefer to keep their own website current and, therefore, "competitive." I go straight to LUGNET and FBTB for the latest. Shame on TLG for abandoning (...) (23 years ago, 28-Nov-01, to lugnet.starwars)
