Well, this has been an embaressing time for me, it's been too long since the end of the contest to be doing this. Obviously I'm not cut out for this type of thing. ANYWAY... I've now been able to talley all the scores to the entries to the Kingdom (...)

In my opinion, the problem is in 19999, 2000 and 2001 the large technic sets have all been cars and the market may have got board of this. Maybe if they came out with somthing different yet offer great functionality then technic would get very (...) (22 years ago, 3-Aug-02, to lugnet.technic)

8448 appears to have been re-added to shop.lego.com for the US. It says to "call for availability", which probably means there aren't many. So you may want to hurry... "Jake Rentar" <B2FUTR2@aol.com> wrote in message news:H06xpr.3CH@lugnet.com... (...) (22 years ago, 2-Aug-02, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Agree with you 100% John! I also found it strange that a large Technic car, with the same functionality as the 8880 Super Car, would go on a 50% off sale from Shop@Home 1 YEAR after release. I think the problem may be that LEGO may have (...) (22 years ago, 2-Aug-02, to lugnet.technic)

Does anyone have actual details of the re-release of the pneumatic crane? So far all I have seen is a picture. Have I missed the announcement? Greg "Steven lane" <steveroblane@aol.com> wrote in message news:H07uL4.9xt@lugnet.com... (...) Technic (...) (22 years ago, 2-Aug-02, to lugnet.technic)

I'm not sure your assessment is accurate. I would concede that the "Technic" word may be dropped from TLC's vocabulary, but I see no evidence that there is much slackening in the pace to create new sets and parts. I think what is happening is that (...) (22 years ago, 2-Aug-02, to lugnet.technic)

(...) First off, I really like the subject line. I think we all need Technic. I admit it, I am a technic user. I don't think things are quite as bad as people think. There was that re-release of the pneumatic crane and a special offer on that large (...) (22 years ago, 2-Aug-02, to lugnet.technic)

I get the funny feeling that the technic line is going down the pan. Technic is my favorite line that lego has produced. Is there any way we can restore the technic line to it's former glory. I do hope that lego are working on some large technic (...) (22 years ago, 2-Aug-02, to lugnet.technic)

I agree with all your comments. This is a great set, especially now it is available at 50%. It is a clever model and well worth building just to soak up a recent lesson in current parts type building techniques (smooth beams etc.). I just grabbed a (...) (22 years ago, 2-Aug-02, to lugnet.technic)
