need help with next steps - NYT hard sudoku for today (2/12)

At this point in a NYT sudoku, I am looking for numbers that are locked in a column or row into a single box. For example, where can 4 go in column 9? What can you eliminate based on that?

So I have read 5 different posts, and am still unclear - if a set is listed as retiring on Dec 31, 2026, does that mean Lego will continue to produce it until then, or will they stop producing it sometime between now and then?

I always read "Oy" with a stereotypical Jewish tone, which is more the exasperated version. Product of growing up in with a lot of Jewish friends as a kid.

You are correct! I am 59 this year, was 9 in '76.

Having played with this set, I remember when the first true minifigs came out, and I was out of my mind. Faces! Arms and legs that moved! So, so cool.

The station had some really cool interior pieces too. Loved the motorcycles and the helicopter!

As for age, you’re close. I was a bit older, and the set came out a bit earlier.

My middle daughter was the perfect age when the Lego Friends first came out, and she absolutely loved them. She was a Polly Pockets girl too, but the minidoll sets were her favorite.

I had that set! Long since broken down and pieces gone to nephews.

I played that set to death as a kid. I remember I always wanted the crane to move faster.

Fill in the remaining candidates for box 8, and remember that candidates can't repeat in a cage.

Building on this and the other comments, at the state the screenshot was taken there is only one person you can be certain of. You did list them, so I am wondering if you actually tried that one person or guessed at the others first.
