(...) Yep, it's the younger kids (under 10) that I'm focusing on. My daughter has gotten bored with the MicroScout, doesn't quite understand the Scout, and doesn't begin to comprehend programming the RCX, so programming the BarCode Unit is easy for (...) (25 years ago, 17-Jan-01, to lugnet.technic)

This looks very nice. I have never given much thought to trying to make my Lego Grandfather Clock (www.ericharshbaregr...lock.html) 'chimable', but it's nice to see that it can be done. Good gear ratio. My clock does not run as consistently as I (...) (25 years ago, 17-Jan-01, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Yup. Somehow it reminds me of the "robot" crane vehicle and cardiogram type device in the old ideas books. I'd like to echo Duq's request for more explanation of the various sub components :-) Jennifer Clark (25 years ago, 17-Jan-01, to lugnet.technic)

Yes, I have seen the T.V. advertisment in Germany too. Very cool! I got in on tape, but I am unable to change the fromat right now, otherwise I could put a version online. Too bad. Also, they started the campaign way too late, now that I already (...) (25 years ago, 17-Jan-01, to lugnet.technic)

Well after approximately 5 hours, I just finished building my recently acquired 8880 Supercar, and frankly it lives up to the hype... Very good working features, drivetrain is quite remarkable. The best part is the number of beams and other useful (...) (25 years ago, 17-Jan-01, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.reviews, lugnet.technic)

IMHO, the best thing one could do with this set would to take a Mindstorms set to it and combine them both. The big thing one might be missing is the problem of the sounds that the barcode unit makes, but that's not really that inviting, although it (...) (25 years ago, 17-Jan-01, to lugnet.technic)
