    Re: here comes the next wave of 2001 sets... —Gary Istok
    (...) 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)
   
        Re: here comes the next wave of 2001 sets... —Erik Olson
   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.

         Re: here comes the next wave of 2001 sets... —Gary Istok
     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...) —Richard Marchetti
   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)
