(...) Try out the Lego celophane elephant set number 4904, a 34 piece designer set that I think was a promotional for a cereal company. It is 8 studs long with tusks, and 8 wide with ears, but the ears fold back to make it 6 wide. I can snail mail (...) (17 years ago, 31-Aug-07, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
