December 11, 200717 yr It's on Peeron and Bricklink and it's from 1977. The range was called "Minitalia" and it actually isn't 100% lego; that's why it has an unusual number. Lego were forced to make sets in Italy for a while due to import restrictions so the box might say that it is made in Italy. Yours however is one of the last ones so it should actually be mostly real Lego. You can find out more here and see the full list of sets here.

December 11, 200717 yr Yes, that's a parallel LEGO line, made for Italy, and Japan (if I'm not mistaken). It has hollow studs and slightly different colors. This set has the Minitalia series quite famouse windows (second type), that are a now rare to find. I heard about people who would almost kill to have some of those windows. This is probably not LEGO set n
December 11, 200717 yr Yes, that's a parallel LEGO line, made for Italy-snip- I was hoping you would chime it! How common were they?
December 11, 200717 yr I was hoping you would chime it! How common were they? Sorry, I'm too young to know or remember from personal experience :-$ . But I got a big bucket full of these pieces from a cousin of mine, and she wasn't a great LEGO fan, so I guess they where quite common in Italy for a while. You can find more here, by lucajuventino (EB member, too). It's mostly Italian but there's an English text at the bottom of the page ;-) LuxorV
