  How LEGO FACTORY can stimulate AFOL interest (and sales).
 
I was looking at the Lego Factory site yesterday. And like some other AFOLs I was rather disappointed with the Micro Lego scale. I don't care much for those 1x1 headlights (or pigeon holes as I like to call them) used as windows. It is too bad that (...) (21 years ago, 21-Nov-04, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Appreciating what TLG and Lego Direct have done for AFOL's
 
(...) Steve, I agree with you on the Technic argument. I personally haven't liked Town since the 1970's, but others don't see it that way. Around 1980 I started to build MOCs. Granted a lot of AFOL's prefer to build mostly what the company comes out (...) (21 years ago, 21-Nov-04, to lugnet.lego)
 
  Re: Universal Color List...finally
 
(...) That's fine, but the bricks I used were all from the period 1970-1980, as they were put away when I began my 20 year dark age in 1981, and I have since always kept them separate from my new bricks. I actually picked out the bricks that looked (...) (21 years ago, 21-Nov-04, to lugnet.color, lugnet.lego)

  Hook Coupling 737c01.dat and 444.dat train wheel.
 
Hi all, to draw a model, which I own for over 5 years, I have now done CAD files for the 60ies hook coupling and the 60ies 4.5 train waggon wheel with riffles. Now at last I was able to render the "Esso promotional set 121". The result can be seen (...) (21 years ago, 21-Nov-04, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: New mod
 
(...) They did do it once, many years ago! If you haven't seen this before, check out: (URL) more specifically: (URL) neatest thing about the piece is that it's actually a small picture of a top-down view of the ship itself, so they probably (...)

  Re: Universal Color List...finally
 
(...) [Snip - quality issues] (...) I can imagine, that a wild mix of used bricks from 196x till nineties have different clutch forces and similar tolerance spread as the plates now. But if you took only bricks of one colour and type out of one type (...) (21 years ago, 21-Nov-04, to lugnet.color, lugnet.lego)

  Re: TRU specials
 
If you do some piece research, you'll find that these are most likely production overruns from current or recently-discontinued sets. I haven't found pieces in the three I bought that are in sets older than 2000. As for the pink, that's probably (...) (21 years ago, 20-Nov-04, to lugnet.loc.au)
