  Re: Does anyone else's Pit Droid not "pop" up properly?
 
If you look at the design, there is a half-pin around the ancle or calf that keeps the thigh from over extending. Mine (at first) had a problem standing, with the knee joint being slightly out and the half pin did not prevent it from over rotating. (...)

  Where are you getting 4561 for under $60????
 
I am interested in buying a couple 4561s for parts. I really only want the windows, tracks, long tiles, and a couple ramps. Where are 4561s available so cheap? I thought I was getting a deal on mine when I bought it for $103 when it first came out. (...) (25 years ago, 17-Jan-00, to lugnet.trains)

  Re: removing a spring from the pneumatic pump

  Re: trade value of an RCX?
 
I think it would be a bit much to trade for - a person would have to add a TON of bricks, pushing the shipping costs for the box skyhigh, or add a complete set or 2. And if it was a 1.0 RCX brick, it would be worth even more. Why don't you just (...) (25 years ago, 17-Jan-00, to lugnet.market.jambalaya)
