I'm really excited about this set: (URL) parts that caught my attention: A red space windshield- the first since 1994!!!!! It's the new clicky kind. Red angled support beams- at least two.

(...) I found one of these in a Zany Brainy last month, too. Someone needs to get a scan to Todd. I'm obviously too lazy to do it, or he'd have had it by now. I also haven't really been too inspired to go to the trouble, since no one reposded to my (...) (24 years ago, 19-Jan-01, to lugnet.year.2001)

When I saw these images I suspected that they might violate the BrickShelf TOS. I conducted a brief investigation and determined that they appear to be images of a current LEGO vendors catalog. In addition they appeared to show products that have (...) (24 years ago, 18-Jan-01, to lugnet.general, lugnet.year.2001)

(...) 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.
