  Re: H-Town has 'Em!
 
(...) Given another option, I avoid the West Loop at all costs. But tomorrow I have a meeting near San Felipe and Post Oak so I'll be checking that Target then. Actually, I should hold out for TRU since I have some Geoffery Dollars to spend. Doug (25 years ago, 22-Dec-99, to lugnet.loc.us.tx.hou)
 
  Re: Constructing Bay Doors
 
(...) If you have enough grey to build a minifig-scale Death Star, you can make any kind of doors you want! ;) Seriously, though, I've usually handled carried craft in the "Space: Above and Beyond" method, with only the cockpit actually *in* the (...) (25 years ago, 22-Dec-99, to lugnet.space)
 
  Re: Idea for if Lego ever revives Imperials
 
(...) Yo Timbo! (As taken from the current James Bond themes, Yo Jimbo!) Revive? Did they ever produce them in the first place? Scott S. (25 years ago, 22-Dec-99, to lugnet.dear-lego)
 
  Re: Constructing Bay Doors
 
(...) I tend to use many hinges and large plates for bay doors, when I build such doors. I place the hinges on the edges of the bay, and attach plates in such a way so that the plates interlock when the doors close. But, here's another method: (...) (25 years ago, 22-Dec-99, to lugnet.space)
 
  Idea for if Lego ever revives Imperials
 
I have a good idea for Lego if they rerelease Imperial Soldiers at some point. Print on different colored torsos, red guards on red torsos, blue guards on blue torsos. This would make the distinction between the classic ones and the new ones (...) (25 years ago, 22-Dec-99, to lugnet.dear-lego)

(...) Hi Marco- This kind of announcement belongs on lugnet.market.auction, not lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade. Good luck in your auction. best, LFB (25 years ago, 22-Dec-99, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)
 
  Re: H-Town has 'Em!
 
(...) Ooh, thanks, James, I'll have to head over there... I'm about equidistant to that one and the San Felipe one. It's a tossup as to which area of town will be less overrun with people at this time of year. :-( (25 years ago, 22-Dec-99, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.loc.us.tx.hou)
 
  Re: Longest train?
 
My experience tells me the bigggest factor limiting the length of the train is the number of curves you have and their configuration. Take you same 71 car train and try to drive it through a double s-curve. That is 8 curves one way, then 8 the (...) (25 years ago, 22-Dec-99, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Minifig Colour Precedents? (Was: Re: Panaka is yellow?)
 
Hi, (...) This is an issue that came up with Fisher-Price over the "Little People" line back in the 1970s. Everyone had hitherto been a generic Caucasian-hue, and then Fisher-Price made a licensing deal with CTW to make Sesame Street sets. The (...) (25 years ago, 22-Dec-99, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: NMRA San Jose in Y2K
 
(...) I agree. We should start planning immediately. (...) Since I don't have the time or money to build my own modules, I'm willing to help out a few weekends building them. Russell (25 years ago, 22-Dec-99, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf, lugnet.trains)

  Re: Giant Cruiser and MOC contest
 
I would like to have the separation, too. I think that the minifig scale is terrific for fine detail, but some designs (I have done) are too huge for minifig. Maybe there could be a four-way split? Techfig scale, Minifig scale, Microfig scale and (...) (25 years ago, 22-Dec-99, to lugnet.space)
 
  Re: Giant Cruiser and MOC contest
 
(...) Yeah, it's probably best to have them judged seperately, but I feel I have to point out - I wasn't thinking "small" - I was thinking "largest I can pull off with my collection", which is maybe 3 or 4 feet. A Battlestar at minifig scale would (...) (25 years ago, 22-Dec-99, to lugnet.space)
