If Gary Istok builds only to the 60s Town Plan scale, the minifig generation will then appreciate his viewpoint! However, Alpha Team has minifigs. Star Wars has minifigs. (24 years ago, 7-Nov-00, to lugnet.year.2001, lugnet.general)

Erick Olson, I believe there is some special reasons of no town set in year 2001. Therefore, I express my viewpoint to all of fans. Hopefully, they may pay attention. Best regards, Wee Lean (...) (24 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 (...) (24 years ago, 7-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 (...) (24 years ago, 8-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 (...) (24 years ago, 8-Nov-00, to lugnet.year.2001, lugnet.general)

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 (...) (24 years ago, 9-Nov-00, to lugnet.year.2001, lugnet.general)

I too thought the 375 castle was the last set with the 1x1x1 windows, but then I remembered that there was a parts pack (in the lugnet database) #836, which came out in 1982, and had the large modern (4 lights) door, the 70's 1x3x4 door, the modern (...)

| | Greek Mask Question (was Re: here comes the next wave of 2001 sets...)

Mr. Istok: Since you have a pair of the better educated eyes on the subject, what scale do you imagine this green greek-style pop-eyed mask to be? The direct link should be here: (URL) would be so great to have this mask in minifig scale AND in gold (...) (24 years ago, 11-Nov-00, to lugnet.year.2001, lugnet.general)
