I am getting a really good picture of those Minitalia windows... it's making my pupils dilate! So, I have the new white 2x1x2 to stack in different ways, but no white 1x3x4 door, only red. The 1x3x2 would sure solve the width but I like the x4 too (...) (25 years ago, 9-Nov-00, to lugnet.year.2001, lugnet.general)

Erik, Yeah I guess most folks wouldn't remember the 50's (I have so few memories myself :-) , but the current window assortment just doesn't give AFOL's enough windows to build with. I don't know what TLC's fixation with doors is all about. They (...) (25 years ago, 8-Nov-00, to lugnet.year.2001, lugnet.general)

Hi Gary, not all of us can "remember" facts about 1957-1973, but I digress (hey.. my first Lego memory was in 1976 when I built a prairie. You know, the thing that boats tie up to on a lake. I wanted to put a little house on it but I really never (...) (25 years ago, 8-Nov-00, to lugnet.year.2001, lugnet.general)

(...) If you ask JK Rowling, she'll tell you that the books aren't targetted at *any* age bracket specifically. The age of the main character does go up by one for each book, though, because each book is about one year in Harry's life. He was 9 in (...)

(...) The press release says that the Harry Potter line of LEGO will arrive shortly before the movie does, in November of 2001. (URL) will probably show up in the Summer 2001 catalogue as a one page preview. ~Nathan (URL) (25 years ago, 7-Nov-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.year.2001, lugnet.year.2002)

Weren't these supposed to be part of the 2001 line? Are they moved to 2002, or just later in 2001? I can't get myself to like the books, but the theme does seem promising. I remember seeing a tv interview on 60 minutes when the first Harry Potter (...) (25 years ago, 7-Nov-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.year.2001, lugnet.year.2002)

(...) It does indeed look like the three main characters from the Harry Potter books. Which leads me to the question: why? I do not think LEGO would release the main characters from an upcoming theme ahead of the theme's release. These are a brand (...) (25 years ago, 7-Nov-00, to lugnet.year.2001, lugnet.general)

(...) Thanks Erik. For the sake of all you folks out there I hope they don't change the scale of LEGO again. Just remember from 1957-73 it was 1 door = 3 bricks high. Then from 1974-77 it was 1 door = 4 bricks high with those minifig stiffs. And (...) (25 years ago, 7-Nov-00, to lugnet.year.2001, lugnet.general)
