Yea i know. But why not post all the pics?

It is a secret catalog only given to stores and distributers and they are not allowed to show it. More and more will be revealed in time, but please don't press people too hard and just be happy with what we have been shown. *sweet*

Many Bothans died to bring us this information... *sad*

Send them all!

oh ok thanks. *sweet* that answers alot of my questions lol. in some ways it's better that the pics get sent out 1 by 1. It makes it more exciting and it adds the suspense.

sorry i wasnt trying to press or pressure any one. I'm just a curious person. (good thing i'm not a cat X-D )

You're all right, kiddo! So far... ;-) When I was a kid (30 now) I had to wait until I got a catalog in a set or saw the new sets in a store. And back then, LEGO only released new sets in January. Only once a year. Can you imagine? I used to get that new catalog and stare at it for hours though. I remember when they first came out with Pirates! I was so surprised. Going outside of the Space-Town-Castle themes was so rebellious of them!! Anyway, I'm not trying to make a point. I'm just telling a story...

:-D

You poor, poor kid! Must've been rough. :-( :-P Bet you still stare at the new catalogues, even though we're all spoiled with getting our information here early. This is off topic a bit, but I like to take a look at old catalogues now and then, does anyone else?

I edited this for ya, Chuck. I couldn't live with myself if I confused you! :-P

No, the ice had just melted, thank you very much! :-D

Yes, and I walked 27 miles to school, uphill both ways in four feet of snow and 90 degree F (33 C) heat every day. :-P

I browse Lugnet more to look at old sets. Perhaps I should look through those catalogs sometimes. They are all in plastic sheets in a three-ring binder and it's heavy though :-( -mer...

Back when I was a kid, we didn't even have a catalog! We had to march 10 miles uphill in the snow to the toy store to stare at the empty shelves where the sets would be if they ever arrived.

So yeah, it's a big secret catalog, people leak information, we drool all over our keyboards in anticipation, then we sign our paychecks over to LEGO. It's a very good system.

Don't knock the ice age. Back then we were all hoping for global warming so we used tons of aerosol hairspray in the 80's and guaranteed it! See how much you kids owe us? ;-)

Yeah right. :-| What lies are you going to tell us next, that there was no internet? |-/

You're sending me mixed messages, Hink. First you say you're a caveman, now you say you were born in the last couple of years :-P

You missed this Hinkley: "When I was a kid (30 now) I had to wait until I got a catalog in a set or saw the new sets in a store. And back then, LEGO only released new sets in January. Only once a year." And LEGO bricks were just bricks.

I mean, I'm just few years younger than you, and at the time we almost did not know there could be bricks in a shape different from the classic rectangle or cilinder... I collected wings, windshields and foils as very rare and special pieces; not to mention hinges 8-

Oh, yeah, and I had to walk 12 miles to school, and all the rest, as well
When I was a kid LEGO was wodden toys!!

There where no catalougs, internet or roads to take us to the toystore.

When we finally got there it was closed because a T-Rex destroyed the store!

Wait a sec... no that was Copmikes story... he is really old :-P

Mine is about the same as Hinckeys, just that I did all those things for a couple of more years...
