|
| (...) Just noticed, that there are two versions of set 7075; I bought a second set, labeled "limited edition" (same price), which included motor AND battery; when mounted, this acts as counter-weight and makes the ship float reasonably.

| | | | | 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)

| | | | | 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 (...)

| I just bought the Jack Stone Spiderman set and lo and behold, the hands can move like a minifig's. I don't know if this will be a permanent change to the Jack Stone line or not. There are also a couple of "fleshies" in the set, although one of the (...) (21 years ago, 10-Apr-04, to lugnet.year.2004, FTX)
