  New LEGO photos from Toy Fair 2003
 
(URL) of good stuff and I sm still going through the list. The new Discovery shuttle and space station are lovely. Sadly only one small train photo. (URL) will probably also have LEGO photos later. (21 years ago, 16-Feb-03, to lugnet.year.2003, lugnet.general) !! 
 
  Re: New LEGO photos from Toy Fair 2003
 
(...) Cooool. Thanks for posting these. I liked the new star was set, with the big hollow gears :) (URL) have to get a couple :) Dan (21 years ago, 16-Feb-03, to lugnet.year.2003)
 
  Re: New LEGO photos from Toy Fair 2003
 
(...) Thanks for posting these. I can hardly wait for them to come out. I'm really impressed with the new Orient Expedition stuff, and the Harry Potter sets actually almost look like real buildings, not the open-air buildings of `01 and `02. I liked (...)

  Re: New LEGO photos from Toy Fair 2003
 
(...) So it is true. Those hockey sets are what the NHL and LEGO partnership has produced. Can I post words like crap, cheap, ugly, disgusting, shameful and such about LEGO products here? 'cuz I sure won't say anything good about those crappy little (...) (21 years ago, 16-Feb-03, to lugnet.year.2003)
 
  Re: New LEGO photos from Toy Fair 2003
 
(...) The pictures on this site load reeeeeeaaaaaal sloooooooow for me. It took almost an hour to view just the first five pages!! Plus several minutes to view two close-ups. Is it because of my 56k or is it slow for everyone? (21 years ago, 16-Feb-03, to lugnet.year.2003)
 
  Re: New LEGO photos from Toy Fair 2003
 
(...) Cool. Thanks for the links. I notice that the Star Wars mini MTT comes with four 2x2 45° concave corner slopes in brown! Outstanding! Finally, I can get a few in Cat.A! ;-) Jason J Railton (21 years ago, 16-Feb-03, to lugnet.year.2003, lugnet.trains, lugnet.loc.uk)
 
  Re: New LEGO photos from Toy Fair 2003
 
Has anyone else noticed how Lego is now cleverly guiding innocent create'n'builders surely and slowly into being hardcore technic builders? I think this is a great move for Technic, as it will guarantee more technic fans over the years. Its now (...) (21 years ago, 17-Feb-03, to lugnet.year.2003, lugnet.technic)

I really like the 6-99 age label on the boxes! (21 years ago, 17-Feb-03, to lugnet.year.2003)

(...) Is that window in Quidditch Supplies cardboard or a real (new) brick? see (URL) Copenhagen (21 years ago, 17-Feb-03, to lugnet.year.2003, lugnet.harrypotter)
 
  Re: New LEGO photos from Toy Fair 2003
 
(...) It looks like the back edge of the display table showing through so I'm guessing a printed window in that frame. Pretty cool looking actually. John #388 (21 years ago, 17-Feb-03, to lugnet.year.2003, lugnet.harrypotter)
 
  Re: New LEGO photos from Toy Fair 2003
 
(...) Yeah, me too! Now I can finally stop telling people that I'm mentally 12 because if I was to grow older, I would have to stop playing with my LEGO. Mark "quick, think of a new excuse to stay 12!" de Kock (21 years ago, 17-Feb-03, to lugnet.year.2003)
 
  Re: New LEGO photos from Toy Fair 2003
 
(...) I agree. I'm stunned by the new Town and micro-fig scale space sets. The space station looks cool, and I'm glad to see the Apollo CSM/LM set. The Discovery Mission to Mars set looks especially interesting since it contains both a micro-fig (...) (21 years ago, 17-Feb-03, to lugnet.year.2003)

Hey, Check out this helicoptor: (URL) at the engine on the side, it looks like it's about eight of these windows: (URL) presumably eight on the other side. Bruce (21 years ago, 18-Feb-03, to lugnet.year.2003)

Check out this photo: (URL) computer (printed 2x2 slope) looks to me like it is specifically Windows. Bill Gates is even starting to control the Legoverse. Bruce (21 years ago, 18-Feb-03, to lugnet.year.2003)
 
  Re: New LEGO photos from Toy Fair 2003
 
(...) Hmm, I dunno. Could be any modern (or even semi-modern) GUI. Or is there something specifically microsofty that I'm missing? (21 years ago, 18-Feb-03, to lugnet.year.2003, lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  Re: New LEGO photos from Toy Fair 2003
 
(...) Yeah, but if that's a Windows machine, I think it's got an error message window up at the moment. (At least the geometry and placement of the central window suggests it.) But it's actually nice to have a new "real" computer screen. Neat! LFB (21 years ago, 18-Feb-03, to lugnet.year.2003)
 
  Re: New LEGO photos from Toy Fair 2003
 
(...) I was basing this on the color scheme of the two windows open in the middle of the screen. They don't look like my Mac, but the Windows machines in the computer lab across the hall have the same color pattern. Bruce (21 years ago, 18-Feb-03, to lugnet.year.2003, lugnet.off-topic.geek)
 
  New Slope! (was Re: New LEGO photos from Toy Fair 2003)
 
(...) Look at (URL) and see the burnt-orange piece on the side, furthest forward. That's a new slope! It changes across its 4-brick length from a standard 1x4 brick to a 2x4 45-degree slope, with the same basic curve of slope used in the rounded (...) (21 years ago, 18-Feb-03, to lugnet.year.2003)
 
  Re: New Slope! (was Re: New LEGO photos from Toy Fair 2003)
 
(...) Actually I don't believe that is a completely new piece. It also appears in the UCS Naboo fighter that was release last year. And don't worry there are various colors of it in the Make-n-Create sets as well. jt (21 years ago, 18-Feb-03, to lugnet.year.2003)
 
  Re: New LEGO photos from Toy Fair 2003
 
(...) If I remember correctly from the movie, the computer the assistant operated was indeed a Windows. So, technically speaking, it is movie accurate. Nathan (drooling over the new Spiderman sets even though I never read the comic) Wells (21 years ago, 18-Feb-03, to lugnet.year.2003)
 
  Re: New Slope! (was Re: New LEGO photos from Toy Fair 2003)
 
(...) The piece is also in set #8357 Zonic Strike (URL) in black and gray. Nathan Wells (21 years ago, 18-Feb-03, to lugnet.year.2003)
 
  Re: New Slope! (was Re: New LEGO photos from Toy Fair 2003)
 
(...) I'm hoping that that piece will be the equivalent of the "wedge 2x6x1 curved top": (URL) last year. I first saw it in the SW Cloud Car set, but it quickly appeared in a variety of colors in Alpha Team, Racer, and many other sets (it was (...) (21 years ago, 18-Feb-03, to lugnet.year.2003)
