|
Hello WAMALUG, I'm in the area for business this week, staying at the Dulles Hilton. My work keeps me in the Reston/Herndon area, but I have some freetime in the evenings. Other than the Lego Outlet (Potomac Mills right?) what else should I check (...) (26 years ago, 15-Mar-00, to lugnet.org.us.wamalug)

(...) They didn't mention what type of language it was, but they called it a "scripting language" a number of times. There was no indication given as to the level of language, and I didn't think to ask. It might be high level, or it might be (...) (26 years ago, 15-Mar-00, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.general)

|

(...) I agree with you on 1x1x5s and 1x2x5s, but I've got to disagree with you on 1x6x5s. They are very useful, especially if they had been used in <set:6699 Set 6699>. If I hit this set in a certain way, the side wall would collapse. :) Jeff, (...) (26 years ago, 15-Mar-00, to lugnet.general)

(...) Maybe they'll do one for Knight's Kingdom in 2001? It's too bad they never did one for Royal Knights/Dark Forest, I would have *loved* that. If they go the usual route, it will probably have the following 'figs: * King Leo w/crown, silver (...) (26 years ago, 15-Mar-00, to lugnet.castle)

(...) show (...) I've been thinking about your problem for a couple of weeks and have a suggestion. I noticed at a local hobby and craft store that they carry a line of variously-sized Ziploc-style plastic bags. There should be enough sizes so that (...) (26 years ago, 15-Mar-00, to lugnet.storage)

(...) That's work I don't want to do, especially since the pieces are all mixed in with the rest of my collection and I would have to first rebuild the sets according to directions which I wasn't planning to do. However, if you have a reasonable (...) (26 years ago, 15-Mar-00, to lugnet.belville)

| | Re: Old sets
|
|
I think that the old sets would not be marketable in today's market. I mean, the space theme was created to be futuristic, but a lot of old sets like blacktron just aren't futuristic anymore. I think that the old sets would appeal to a lot of old (...) (26 years ago, 15-Mar-00, to lugnet.space)

| | Re: drafting paper
|
|
(...) "overhead" paper provides a medium for sketching "plan" views, ie, looking straight down at the tops of brick studs. The other paper offers an "elevation" view, ie, looking at the side of a wall marked for plates because 3 plates high = 1 (...) (26 years ago, 15-Mar-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build, lugnet.edu)

| | Re: UDF-only Legos?!?
|
|
(...) Hey, Joel! What did they want for these. I just saw them in my local UDF in Dayton, but there marked a ridiculous $5.99. Another UDF nearby has two Star Wars sets (Lightsaber Duel and Droid Fighter) at $5.99, which is the MSRP for those two (...) (26 years ago, 15-Mar-00, to lugnet.market.shopping)

(...) *blink* I didn't know they had Town Jr. back in '87. I hope that didn't unduly offend anyone, but seeing that made me think that maybe LEGO hasn't changed all that much after all...(at least in the buildings. I could tell a huge difference (...) (26 years ago, 15-Mar-00, to lugnet.general)
