|
| (...) Could some one clarify, didn't TLG plan-on, or already move some production/ warehouse facilities to Eastern Europe to cut-costs?!? Anyways, i'm betting quality standards will slip in China... (i know, this nation is making better products (...)

|
| (...) I hope that happens with all of the +4 pirate sets... I want them all cheap. (...) I like that you acknowledge the fact that they are made for 4 year olds. A lot of people seem to forget that and start complaining at the "bad quality" of the (...) (20 years ago, 14-Oct-04, to lugnet.reviews, lugnet.pirates, lugnet.year.2004)
| | | | | Set 7075 JacStone Pirate Ship
|
| Well, I've waited some months, but finally this ship was on deep discount. First: it IS a JacStone set, so as expected, there are ugly figs and lots of big pieces. It's intended for 4-year old kids, and indeed there is hardly anything in it that is (...) (20 years ago, 12-Oct-04, to lugnet.reviews, lugnet.pirates, lugnet.year.2004)

| | | | | catalog scan
|
| Back in 2001 the LEGO Shop-at-Home catalog showed "instructions" for building a schoolhouse with bulk packs. I can't find my 2001 catalogs. Can someone who has one please scan that page for me? Russell (21 years ago, 27-Apr-04, to lugnet.db.scans, lugnet.inst, lugnet.year.2001, lugnet.town)
| | | | | Re: New Harry Potter Castle Review - 4757
|
| My impression is that the 2004 sets have improved architecture: between Harry Potter and Spider-man there are much better looking, less juniorized buildings this year. At least, there is more ornament. There's the laid-on plate roof of the castle, (...) (21 years ago, 16-Apr-04, to lugnet.reviews, lugnet.harrypotter, lugnet.castle, lugnet.year.2004)
| | | | | Re: Jack Stone Spiderman characters can move hands!
|
| (...) It's possible, but it seems oddly unnecessary. The CPSA prohibits small pieces in toys intended for children under 3, but the most recent renaming of the old Jack Stone line to "LEGO 4+" is about as clear a message as you can get that it's not (...)

| (...) Swallowing risk? Movable is not the same as removable... Maybe they think they've made the arms in a way that they can't be pulled off by even a very determined toddler, but didn't see how to prevent the helmet from being swallowed, so it's (...)
