My first observation of seeding was in the Roboforce 2152 Robo Raptor.
It had, I believe, a red or yellow 2x4 brick in the middle, not
visible from the outside.  After building it, I remember feeling that
is was so cool that I knew there was that brick in there, but no
one else could know.  I figured it was a cybernetic organ inside
the robo creature, and I could see how it could help someone
increase their 3-D awareness of models.

OTOH, I dislike the mottled coor schemes of some of the
Star Wars sets, like the MTT. Although I'm not sure a solid
brown MTT would be any more attractive.

(...) Kinda like the "black box" in set 4561, the Railway Express? Except the black box is only sort of hidden -- it's meant to be exposable, but if one didn't know it was there, one wouldn't look for it. Steve (23 years ago, 5-Mar-01, to lugnet.general, lugnet.starwars)
