21. Re: Why no more monorail?

    

    Comment by mathew · March 2012 · Home› Collecting

    Monorails and the Space theme are so perfect together. When I think of monorails I think of Tomorrowland at Disneyworld. I've been eyeing the original 6990 Futuron monorail on ebay. Seems that prices have been rising. If Lego really had the balls to throw caution to the wind they would release a new Space based monorail…

22. Re: Most triumphant purchase

    

    Comment by rocao · April 2011 · Home› Buying & Selling Topics

    I once picked up a near complete Monorail set in a box with at least 3 other near complete town sets for $30.00 from an antique store. Great buy! I usually only find broken trinkets at antique stores :P My most distinct memory of drooling over a Lego set as a child was the Toys R Us display of 6990 Futuron Monorail. After…

23. Website Like Rebrickable For Official Sets?

    

    Discussion by The_Iveys · May 2015 · Home› Everything else LEGO

    Hi folks. I took delivery of a 16 pound lot I bought online. Judging from some of the pieces in the lot, there may be one or more sets hidden in the contents. I could load the entire inventory into Rebrickable for MOC building (which I intend to do)... but is there a site for official sets that provides the same service…

24. Re: What are you building right now?

    Not so much building as unbuilding the #6990 I was lent over the holidays. Was great to finally get to build and play with this legend of my childhood. Will I be able to resist buying one for myself or has it managed to satisfy my monorail needs (at least for now)? Not entirely sure.

    Thanks! I do not recall a lot of creativity with lego when I was growing up. Always follow the instuctions and play with the set as is. I had a few city and space sets, nothing too extravagant (with the exception of the monorail 6990), but I was never encouraged to go beyond the manual. Regardless, Huw, your site is…

27. Re: What is the best LEGO set of all time?

    

    Comment by madforLEGO · December 2013 · Home› Collecting

    #6399 because of the apparent demand of that set, even today. It is a Monorail and seems to also work with the train crowd as well as city. Or #6990 because it was the first Monorail released and is iconic I think it will be very difficult to pick the best set of all time, you may have to first pick the tops for each genre…

28. Re: Very first Lego set

    

    Comment by Milcheax · June 2013 · Home› Collecting

    1984-1985 or so... I don't remember exactly which one was first, but #6603 Shovel Truck is the earliest I remember. For probably Christmas after that, the biggest set I remember (at least until getting #6990 Monorail in the late 80s) was #6386 Police Command Barracks. It was fantastic because both I and my brother had a…

29. Re: 40 Year Old Birthday - Suggestions for Must-Have LEGO sets

    

    Comment by SirKevbags · January 2014 · Home› Everything else LEGO

    Just an idea. Was there a set you longed for as a child? Month after month you looked at in toy shops and print but for whatever reason you couldn't have it? Picking that set up now would complete a pretty long held dream. I loaned out a #6990 to a fellow AFOL this Christmas and after waiting 25 or so years he wasn't…

30. Re: Predictions on Discontinuing Sets and their Secondary Market Value

    

    Comment by 0909090 · July 2013 · Home› Buying & Selling Topics

    What we need is a real cool space base. I'm pretty sure all of you would prefer a classic space base such as #6987 over the models of aliens bugs we receive recently. They aren't bad though, but LEGO should give us something which we haven't had for quite a few years. If they add something like #6990 too, they have…
