It would be interesting to see if you have found ways to use parts in an environment totally different from what it was meant to be in. Like some cute single-purpose Scala utensil in a sci-fi scene or some hopeless Duplo block... well somewhere, I (...) (20 years ago, 10-Feb-06, to lugnet.build)

Allan, You seem to be assuming that LEGO tossed out the applicant list and pciked whomever they wanted. Why do you think that? I hate to say it, but it is obvious that reputation matters. Look at the original four MUPs. They have fantastic (...) (20 years ago, 10-Feb-06, to lugnet.robotics)
