Hmmm... Here is the list of MOL (my own legends):

856, 8855, 8859, 8860, 8862, 8868, 8880, 8448, 8460, and 8480

and honorable mentions:

855, 8856, 8422, 8459, 8479

But 8422, 8448, 8459, 8460, 8479 and 8480 are quite new to became a
legend, so we can eliminate them. We can also eliminate the honorable
mentions to reduce the pool, so the left are:

856, 8855, 8859, 8860, 8862, 8868, 8880

I already own 8860, 8862, and 8880, so my personal choice of candidates
are :

856, 8855, 8859, 8868

8855 has a unique propellor, 8868 has an older type 9V motor, 8859 has
older engine cylinders (or engine squares..:-) which probably hard to
manufacture again. So my personal choice and bet of a Lego Legend is:

856

Am I boring or what?..:)

PS. If they manage to manufacture either old 9V motor or the 8855
propellor, I of course prefer both 8855 and 8868 over 856.

All these numbers are very confusing, apart from 8462 I don't know the
numbers of any sets and can't be arsed to look them up. Can't people use the
proper names?

(...) At least for me the numbers are easier. First of all that's the way I think about a set: I think: 853,8860,8865,8880,8448 and not: PKW, Auto Chassis, Test Car, Super Car, Super Car Mk II. The name could be very confusing - what's the (...) (23 years ago, 11-Jun-01, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Steve, Where's the hassle cutting & pasting a few lines into the Lugnet search window? You get a nice picture of each set (usually) which is worth 1000 words. If you "can't be arsed to look them up", why should you expect others to aid your (...) (23 years ago, 12-Jun-01, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Define proper in this context? The US name, the UK name, the Oz name, the german name, something else? A set number, with rare exception, is definitive and can be looked up by anyone that cares to make a small effort. So I would say that (...) (23 years ago, 12-Jun-01, to lugnet.technic)
