 | | Opacity change - when?
|
| Avoiding the debate over the color change, I want to bring up another issue. It is quite obvious to me that modern Lego pieces are much more translucent than the old ones. I might be speaking about ancient times which nobody cares about here, but (...) (20 years ago, 10-May-04, to lugnet.color)

| | Re: What town set would you recommend to a Technic fan?
|
| (...) That's the set I have in mind right now. I recently ordered 6335 (used) on bricklink, the wheels are attractive. The main street is very old (1980) so it must have a lot of basic bricks and slopes. Still a bit expensive, though. (22 years ago, 3-Feb-03, to lugnet.town)

| | Re: How do you sort your legos?

They fit to Lego bricks but not to plates, due to their high studs. The feel is (...) (23 years ago, 30-Oct-01, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
