(...) It also didn't get all the parts. I noticed 105.dat missing from the preview page, and since I just saw it get certified the other day, I checked and saw that it was in the update. --Travis Cobbs (20 years ago, 23-Apr-04, to lugnet.cad)

(...) The duplication has been removed. The preview page only includes "new" parts - 105.dat was a fix/improvement to a version already in the official library, so it is not included on the preview page. The entry at (URL) exists now too. Chris (20 years ago, 23-Apr-04, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Thanks! I'm the person (URL) requested the 50 x 50 baseplate>, and it's great to see it official. It's quite an old "part" (it's so big it's hard to call it a "piece"). It probably is LEGO's biggest part ever. Thanks again, Chris Dee, for (...) (20 years ago, 23-Apr-04, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
