Every so often, I feel compelled to comment. So excuse me but ... As an AFOL, what I do with Lego, specifically Technic and Mindstorms parts are very likely not what kids do. They couldn't - most of them don't own quite as much of the stuff as the (...) (23 years ago, 14-Mar-02, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Yes, but very expensive. IIRC, when Lego used to sell those accessory packs, they were about 1/2 as much. Granted it's been a long time since, I don't think they'd be as much if Lego still sold them. TJ (23 years ago, 14-Mar-02, to lugnet.technic)
