Hey everyone!
I just visited LEGO.com and they are going to have another contest!
This time you get to try your hand at building a duck! It seems you will
get five chances to build the "best" duck (whatever that is). I couldn't
get to the actual building screen, so I don't think it is operational
yet. The update at the bottom of the page said Jan. 2, 1997.

PRIZE = 8299 Technic Sub w/CD-ROM

BTW, Did anyone on r.t.l. win anything from the Advent Calendar contest?

Get those yellow bricks out!!!
Happy New Year!!!

Well, yeah, you can build a duck out of macaroni, but you can't fight evil with
it...

No, I haven't heard anything on mine - I argued about the flag not being
a brick, and they gave me the point, but STILL said it was a brick - I
answered back saying basically "shyea, right" quite politely, no word
back yet ;-)

I Emailed to blindalley, it came back as unknown - so it is blind.alley?

Actaally, I took the lazy way out - I Emailed to postm...@lego.com.
Some consider that rude, I consider it necessary when there is NO other
Email address. Postmasters usually just forward it to the necessary
internal account. At least, ours at work does.
