Done.

Funny, I added "More ads for adults in BrickJournal" to the "What could LEGO do better?" section and then later it asked about BrickJournal. I guess it was already on their mind.

This looks like a "must have" for me. A great design and lots of good pieces for a reasonable cost (cdn$200 for 2000+ is OK).

I especially like the tan Indy bag, Double washtubs used as a water barrel and the red garage door.

Something to add to my "BrickCon list".

Re: Disney and LEGO Group Announce Strategic Licensing Relat

Here you have it: To end last night's conversation, Toy Story and Cars will be DUPLO while Prince of Persia will be System. Actually, look again. Toy Story will be both! <3 Toy Story-themed construction sets will be available on both LEGO DUPLO and LEGO System platforms... LEGO System products base...

Although I'm not a huge train head I am a big fan of dark green and also looking into possibly getting a train set, this may be the one. Does anyone know the Canadian price for this beauty? $130 (for just over 1,000 pieces). Not bad but not great either. BTW if you don't want the passenger car part...

This does look great. If I was going and was willing to bring Sean I think he would have an awesome time. I hope it turns out to be as cool as it sounds.

Apparently a former partner with BestLock and yes, based in Poland.

I still feel a little dirty and I only touched one box.

Why didn't LEGO do this? [Clone Brand Warning]

OK, so I was in BC Shavers on Fort St this past weekend and I saw a bunch of Cobi brand sets including some from their "Romans and Barbarians" theme. I actually found myself wondering how I could get some of the cool elements like a legion eagle standard or the very roman shields. :puke: G...

Odd, I find myself thinking I could do that to basic brick. Not minifigs or other non- 2xX bricks of course but I have lots of the regular stuff that would make a great bit of LEGO "art".

8o Suprising myself with that one.
