We had a small but wonderful meeting last weekend! Gus showed a wind-up clock that he's been working on.

| | Duplo Castle set 4776 - and a problem
|
|
I picked up the 'Dragon Tower' Duplo Castle set (4776) today at LLCA and it is a very nice set. I was worried that I would not like them, that they would be "to MBish".

|

(...) There aren't any round corner 4x4 pieces, unfortunately. There are a few half arch 1 x 2 pieces, but those are fairly common in a lot of colors, I believe. Here are the pieces (specifically slopes) and their colors in the LEGO Factory (...) (21 years ago, 22-Nov-04, to lugnet.general, FTX)

(...) It seems to be mostly classic greys, with the occasional bley part thrown in. As these are supposedly extra parts originally bound for other sets, I guess they took a while to put together hence they're mostly from pre-2004 sets. ROSCO (21 years ago, 22-Nov-04, to lugnet.loc.au, FTX)

(...) Hey folks, Does the tub come with old greys or new greys? As a 2004 set I would guess new ones but peeron lists it as having the old ones. Cheers Matthew (21 years ago, 22-Nov-04, to lugnet.loc.au, FTX)

(...) The 8 x 16 baseplates are 'Light Green', the 1 x 6 plates are 'Aqua' according to BL. Peeron lists the 1 x 6 plates in 5850 as 'Aqua'. All these colours...if we were true purists, we would all learn Danish and call them whatever Lego calls (...) (21 years ago, 22-Nov-04, to lugnet.loc.au)
