inconsistant with set design. 1/2 of the new sets make me sick but the other 1/2
are pure classic lego brilliance. Dock 13 for example is one of those shiny gems
in the pile of rubbish of lego juniorization. Let me start with the Hovercraft.
It has some great parts and aload of details that could very well been left off
if this set were produced a year ago. These include the headlights antennea,red
and green lights and horn. All of these little things give me hope. It also has
great play value with the catapaulting action which by way of rubberband blasts
the smaller watercraft out of the back.All around the construction went
smoothly. Now on to the dock itself. Let me say what a great look it has. A
nicely designed run down shack with some nice details. This includes the old
octane gas can, outside lights antennea and chimney. Great parts are the dock
sliding door, rat, and good old classic lego bricks. The dock also features the
catapaulting action. I would say this set is a must of the world city sets not
only for parts but because I believe with little or no modification it would
work well with any town. With this set I also recieved a gabage can that i dotn
see pictured on the box or in the instruction book... bonus.

Matt - what shade of blue is used in this set?  It's hard to tell from the scans
I've seen.

And, does it contain the new shades of grey?

(...) Jason, The set appears to have "old school" lego colors. The blue looks a touch more"blue" but I didn't have a great brick to compare against as my legos are packed up due to some remodeling. (21 years ago, 14-Jan-04, to lugnet.town)
