I saw this post today: (URL) included a link to a LEGO-related blog. I'm sure Bruce can't be the only one writing about LEGO in his blog. So I wondered: Is there a list of LEGO-related blogs somewhere? Or a way to search for them somehow? If no one (...) (21 years ago, 9-Mar-05, to lugnet.general)

Hi Bruce (...) It looks really very good, I think. The only (minor!) thing I think would make a neat addition would be a nod at the ever-increasing number of colours in which minifig parts are available. A 1978 group shot vs. a 2005 one would be (...) (21 years ago, 9-Mar-05, to lugnet.build.minifigs, FTX)

(...) Nifty! You might want to consider adding how initially, minifigs were used as children for maxi-figs. And it's not terribly important to evolution, but how the little stripes are drawn onto the neck-peg for proper face rotation. Hm. Also COULD (...)
