(...) There probably won't be any new ones, excepet for maybe some small promotional sets. However, a large ski plane or expedition boat would be really nice. (25 years ago, 26-Apr-00, to lugnet.town)

Todd, I just saw some previous posts about adding the Artic newsgroup and how it might be overbearing if you were to do ALL the sub themes. Makes sense. Answered my own question. So does anyone know when/what the next Arctic kits are expected to be? (...) (25 years ago, 26-Apr-00, to lugnet.town)

Does anyone know why I can't post a new message to the Arctic newsgroup? I noticed that there aren't any messages in that newsgroup at all which seems strange to me. Please let me know. Thanks! jake (25 years ago, 26-Apr-00, to lugnet.town)

Glad you liked it Brendan. I know that some people prefer a "pure" LEGO mountain (so would I, but I'd rather use the limited bricks I have for other projects), I modeled it after a mountain that was on the cover of a S@H catalog I saw a few years (...) (25 years ago, 24-Apr-00, to lugnet.town)

(...) WOW! Now that is a GORGEOUS mountain. I mean, no offense, but I wouldn't paint a mountain yellow. However, if that was brown, gray, and any other color it would look absolutely perfect. I'm sure it's extremely easy for you to describe it in (...) (25 years ago, 22-Apr-00, to lugnet.town)

SPINCO car design has introduced a new concept to the hot topic of the 6-8 wide railroad cars. Well we have went above the standard 4 wide car & created the "5 WIDE COUPE REVENGE". Towns people have been quoted saying it looks like a larger VW (...) (25 years ago, 19-Apr-00, to lugnet.town)

In a batch of eBay winnings[1], I found a single 1x2 police brick. The printing looks like that in the police station from 1979 (best seen in the instructions at (URL)), but the rest of that set isn't there. The font is smaller than the one used in (...)
