  Re: Thoughts on the UN "Racist" poster?
 
(...) I'm kinda baffled by the symbology. I don't know about anyone else, but when I'm trying to solve a jigsaw puzzle, I'm not gonna try to use a Lego brick to do it. If that makes me a racist, then so be it. a (20 years ago, 22-Mar-06, to lugnet.mediawatch, FTX)
 
  Re: New LeoCAD version
 
(...) Hi, I tried it whith drag and drop the wing 8 x 4 to the space group but find this part then in the bricks group. I tried it with the brick curved 3 x 1 moving to the slope bricks group and then find it in the tiles group. So I get confused (...) (20 years ago, 22-Mar-06, to lugnet.cad.leocad)
 
  Re: 10027 is now sold in blay.... :-(
 
(...) I can understand that feeling, Ben. The lack of information is the main complaint I have about the colour change. Since I don't have a 10027 though it is good news for me overall since it means I can procrastinate buying one for a while longer (...) (20 years ago, 22-Mar-06, to lugnet.color)
 
  Re: Thoughts on the UN "Racist" poster?
 
(...) And now it seems the UN OHCHR has taken down the image (or maybe it just moved). Anyhoo, the linked page no longer has the poster on it. I'm thinking someone gave the OHCHR an earful. Steve (20 years ago, 22-Mar-06, to lugnet.mediawatch, FTX)
 
  Next Lugola meeting
 
It has been a long while since our last meeting, and Dan has a bunch of stuff he wants to sell. This is my seed email, is anyone available to host a meeting in the near future? I had high hopes of hosting a meeting at my mother's home, but that (...) (20 years ago, 22-Mar-06, to lugnet.org.us.lugola)
 
  Re: 10027 is now sold in blay.... :-(
 
(...) Hi Tim, maybe it is good. But I hated to find out I had spent 75 Eur (=90$US) on a nearly useless set. LEGO should have changed the ©2003 to ©2006 or maybe they could have added a 2cent sticker on the box like "Contains new cool colors!". A (...) (20 years ago, 21-Mar-06, to lugnet.color)  
 
  Re: 10027 is now sold in blay.... :-(
 
(...) At the very least it means that there is a new run of 10027 which is good. Tim (20 years ago, 21-Mar-06, to lugnet.color)
 
  10027 is now sold in blay.... :-(
 
Hi all, just a small update from the color frontier: A 10027 set which I boght last weekend has been full with blay parts. A 1000steine member found a blay version of Santa Fe engine 10020! ***...*** The level crossing 10128 appeared in a mixture of (...) (20 years ago, 21-Mar-06, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.color)
 
  Re: Space Creations
 
(...) On second thoughts, maybe you shouldn't post it on CSF. I'm sorry for suggesting it Joe. No newbie deserves that. Keep building, and don't worry about getting your theme recognised. It'll happen if it happens, if not, meh. As long as {you're} (...) (20 years ago, 21-Mar-06, to lugnet.space)  
 
  Re: Thoughts on the UN "Racist" poster?
 
(...) Dejure it's out of copyright/trademark, true, but defacto it will be LEGO that will be influenced the most by any ill will engendered. Most people's first thought, I would expect, would be "hey those are legos" (with some small subset thinking (...) (20 years ago, 21-Mar-06, to lugnet.mediawatch, lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)  
 
  Re: A castle fan's Train plan
 
(...) Certainly a tried and true technique but doesn't easily make stairs that go into the carriage (the hard bit). There are numerous other parts that are handy, one notable one being the 1x2 plate with rail (part 32028) but it all depends on how (...) (20 years ago, 21-Mar-06, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
 
  Re: A castle fan's Train plan
 
(...) Here's my suggestion for stairs. Black or grey these: (URL) SNOT'ed so the open top points out. Either a single vertical row creating an L, or horizonatal pairs for a shape.

  Re: Spedizione Legoland....
 
(...) Credo che detto così nessuno sa a cosa ti riferisci... tenendo pure conto che Füssen è a 5 Km dal castello di NEUSCHWANSTEIN (che è il castello riprodotto spesso sui puzzle Ravensburger la cui sede, a Ravensburg, si trova a circa 100 km da lì) (...)

  Re: Possible idea for The LEGO Company
 
(...) Holy moley! Where did you see these? In Canadialand? Which province? And which dollar store (since there are so many variations)? And do you really spell it "Doller" up there? Is that like "humour"? Any idea of a piece-count in the bags? Do (...) (20 years ago, 21-Mar-06, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)
 
  Possible idea for The LEGO Company
 
Recently on a visit to the local Doller Store, I happened across this in the aisle-- (URL) Yep--MegaBlok packages containing basic bricks, all for a buck. I don't know if TLC would be at all interested in offering similar packages, but I would (...) (20 years ago, 21-Mar-06, to lugnet.dear-lego, FTX)
 
  Re: Thoughts on the UN "Racist" poster?
 
(...) You're right, that one is certainly more clear about what it's trying to get across. And it's more appropos in using all minifigs to represent something, rather than using a construction element as something to be termed as different. I'm just (...)

  Can't seem to find the "Batman" group
 
Anyway, I spotted the "Twoface Escape" set at a KMart in Pittsburgh PA. The price wasn't marked, alas, and this was the only Batman set in evidence, but at least it's on the shelf. FWIW. Dave! (20 years ago, 21-Mar-06, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Thoughts on the UN "Racist" poster?
 
(...) Perhaps someone with better monitor-resolution can answer, but on my screen I don't see the "LEGO" logo on any of the studs. Since it has already been established in numerous court cases that TLG does not (any longer) hold any "trademark" on (...) (20 years ago, 21-Mar-06, to lugnet.mediawatch, FTX)
