Random Catalogue

Post by Redav »

I happened to see this on sale on eBay and found it amusing. Naturally not every country gets the same little catalogue things so I hadn't seen this one.

That's not actually from a catalogue, but that's an advert that was placed in a magazine in the Netherlands.
I have a few different adverts like this one from the Donald Duck magazine for example, they're just one-page advertisements.

Ah, so it is. I only had a close look at the scene and not so much the page as a whole. Wonder what other adverts like this were put out?

No they are magic boats that move without being rowed. :roflol:

That boat set was made before the oars had come out.

Also there are a lot of different adverts like this. I have several in Dutch, German and French. I'm sure there's more. I don't have this one. It's pretty cool!

If I can find mine in the next 2 weeks, I'll bring a few to BrickCon for you Josh (all in Dutch though), you can check which ones you don't have yet.
