 | | Re: The History of LEGO Plates - Part 1.
|
| (...) Hey Mark, you are correct!! Set 725 - Town Plan (the later 1962-64 version) had over 100 clear bricks, in brick sizes 1x1, 1x2, 1x6, 1x8, 2x2, 2x3, 2x4 and 2x2 quarter circle (macaroni). No clear plates or slopes in this set. Keep those clear (...) (25 years ago, 5-Aug-99, to lugnet.general)

| (...) they'll turn that color. But one thing I did notice is that the clear 1x2 plates from the 1960's Architectural parts packs are indistinguishable from those of the Lear Jet (1970's). That means that both are ABS, or they had a lot of CA plates (...) (25 years ago, 5-Aug-99, to lugnet.general)

| Sanjay, Thanks for the info. New Zealand is not the only country that had a (soon to be discontinued?) bulk order policy, but (and this is rare for me) I kept silent. As someone who has NEVER had a bulk order completed (everything in my collection (...) (25 years ago, 5-Aug-99, to lugnet.general)

| | Re: How to tell Cellulose Acetate from ABS

| Hey John! Those 4x8 curved plates came in a left curve and a right curve piece. They came in Service Packs #227. In Europe both the left and right curved piece came in one set (2 of each with an extra 2x8 white plate). In the USA/Canada Samsonite (...) (25 years ago, 5-Aug-99, to lugnet.general)

| (...) John, My general feeling is that "no Lego is sacrosanct" (no taboo's). Sometimes I take generous liberties with the Lego myself. You know those gaps that the 2x2 "macaroni" quarter circle bricks (as well as those 4x4 quarter bricks) leave (...) (25 years ago, 5-Aug-99, to lugnet.general)

| Thanks Scott. Are you trying out SAHBO as a new acronym (Shop At Home Bulk Orders)? Well I don't know if it will do any good, but I do know that Peter Eio will read the letter. I may not like their policies, but I do like Mr. Eio. He's been there a (...) (25 years ago, 6-Aug-99, to lugnet.general)

| Thanks for the info John, very informative. If we got group orders in bulks of 50,000 or 100,000, would that be enough to justify a special run of specialty pieces (such as 1x2x2 windows, 2x2 cylinder bricks, 2x2 tiles)? Gary Istok (...) (25 years ago, 9-Aug-99, to lugnet.general)

| Scott, that 50,000 or 100,000 was for the whole group. I probably wouldn't want more than 1 or 2 thousand just for me. They make great columns in classic or neoclassic buildings. But I don't have plans to build the Roman Forum (just yet). Gary Istok (...) (25 years ago, 9-Aug-99, to lugnet.general)

| Thanks Jeroen, If we get any Bulk Order results from TLG, I'll name a street in my Lego town after you (Jeroen Avenue?). I think that you may be right. Maybe we should skip Mr. Eio (USA President), and go directly to the top, KKK. I have printed the (...) (25 years ago, 9-Aug-99, to lugnet.general)
