Has anyone else noticed how Lego is now cleverly guiding innocent create'n'builders surely and slowly into being hardcore technic builders?

(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. (22 years ago, 16-Feb-03, to lugnet.year.2003, lugnet.general) !!

(...) It's hard to say with the blurry pics, but I think they are 4-wide. The bridge that the taxi cab is on looks to be made from the track from the Racers theme. A 4-wide vehicle fits on that track just fine, but the 6-wide HP car is too wide. Ken (...) (22 years ago, 10-Feb-03, to lugnet.year.2003, lugnet.town)
