While I really prefer collecting bricks and plates in all trans-colors, I also procure parts like those 1x12 trans-clear bars and canopies.

Sid, For a most dramatic effect (if you still have the model together) I would recommend getting a flourescent blacklight and blasting your wonderful creation with it. Blacklight makes trans-orange and trans-antifreeze glow quite brightly. I love (...) (22 years ago, 13-Mar-03, to lugnet.space)

(...) "Ghastly" doesn't even begin to describe that. The shape is cool, but the colors...my God, the colors! The only thing that's missing is a wide selection of trans SPUDs...but are there that many trans SPUDs out there? You have acheived (...) (22 years ago, 13-Mar-03, to lugnet.space)
