(...) It looks like TLC is trying to capitalize on BattleBots (nee Robot Wars). That's neat, as I've been wanting to build my own, on the cheap. Also, that's a whole lot of treads. Finally, white burps in the ramp set. The set reminded me of the (...) (24 years ago, 18-Jan-01, to lugnet.general, lugnet.year.2001)

The 'bell dome' pieces in this scan, while blurry, don't appear to be clear.. they look like they are Trans light blue. That would be most (...)

(...) I like the 4 plain white R2 head (cylinder tops). I was using the printed R2 head for a dome in a microscale, and it looks, well, *unique* but a white one will be nice too. This is in 3-pack 78777 Alien Discovery at TRU. Look out, 5 digit set (...) (24 years ago, 18-Jan-01, to lugnet.year.2001)

What is the source for the individual poly-bagged Martians? It looks like they are all martians that appear in the regular sets. The packaging appears generic? Rob (24 years ago, 16-Jan-01, to lugnet.year.2001)

Yeah, I saw that. (URL) It's a de-badged Ford Expedition. It's designed cooperatively between Lego and Johnson Systems, which I'd never heard of but is apparently good with automotive interior type stuff. If they want to sell many they'll need to (...) (24 years ago, 16-Jan-01, to lugnet.year.2001)
