  New puzzle game: Zeami's Birthday
 
Zeami's Birthday is a freeware for Windows 98 or superior. In a world of ashes, Zeami struggles to gather pieces of what used to be her past life. The gameplay is essentially a Sokoban-like where you have to assemble lego bricks. Game controls: (...) (18 years ago, 5-Nov-06, to lugnet.announce, lugnet.basic, lugnet.games, lugnet.gaming)
 
  Re: Samsonite Set 285 Inventory?
 
(...) Roy, A few of us have compared our 285 inventories but we don't have a MISB to reference (yet). Here is one online: (URL) send you a separate list in email. None of these are guaranteed, but may be a good starting point. Eric (18 years ago, 16-Dec-05, to lugnet.basic)
 
  Samsonite Set 285 Inventory?
 
Hi all, I just got an old Samsonite set 285 (285 piece basic set). Its got the box, plastic trays, a catalog of spare parts, and even a small idea book.

  Re: 4883 Gear Grinders - First play
 
(...) It's a good idea, but I think Nathaniel Kuipers would win :-) I know the pic is bad - I was rushing to get this post up before I went to bed on Sunday so it would be the first post about 4883. I did have some other pics in my brickshelf folder (...) (19 years ago, 22-Jan-05, to lugnet.basic, FTX)

(...) Nice tractor! What color did your TransRed 1x1 Plates have? ... TransRed? or some new lighter variation like mine? Martin (19 years ago, 17-Jan-05, to lugnet.basic, FTX)
 
  Re: 4883 Gear Grinders - First play
 
(...) Nice looking tractor. Rear view please? Does your camera have a "White Balance" option? If it does, you could probably tweak it so that the red and grey look more natural. Maybe we should do a competition for MOCs built from given Designer (...) (19 years ago, 17-Jan-05, to lugnet.basic, FTX)
 
  LEGO-decorated Christmas Tree
 
For some reason, it never occurred to me before to decorate my home Christmas tree all in LEGO ornaments (1). I didn't go crazy, just a few designs, but the overall impact was quite effective. Non-LEGO parts included: Tree, tree stand, electric (...) (19 years ago, 28-Dec-04, to lugnet.fun.holiday, lugnet.announce.moc, lugnet.basic, lugnet.build, FTX)
 
  Is set #4886 a Europe/Oceana exclusive?
 
Hello all, I saw set #4886 emerge on Shop at Home today. It says "Coming Soon on 18 Oct 2004" for Australia, New Zealand and the European S@H countries. But for Canada and United States it read "Sorry, item is not available in this country". Does (...) (20 years ago, 12-Sep-04, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.basic, lugnet.build)

  Re: My X-Pod Creations
 
(...) I'd think you should be able to just match up the 2x ends, and maybe stick the other two orange dots in front of the orange wedges. (...) Oh, I'm not saying that the pincer feet don't look cool. I just don't think it's worth giving up the (...) (20 years ago, 20-Apr-04, to lugnet.basic)
 
  Re: My X-Pod Creations
 
(...) I originally wanted to make a rhinoceros beetle, but then I ran out of parts from 4349 to make a convincing horn for it. If you stack the orange 2x3 wedge on top of the red 2x4 wedge, you can get a thicker wing shell with a nice two-color (...) (20 years ago, 20-Apr-04, to lugnet.basic)
 
  Re: My X-Pod Creations
 
(...) The beetle (is that a stag-horn?) looked like the one from the instructions, but I see now that it's not the case. I somewhat prefer their fatter body design, but you leg design is much better (using hinge pieces on the pincer-feet is a waste (...) (20 years ago, 19-Apr-04, to lugnet.basic)

  Re: X-Pods on sale in the UK
 
(...) That's an interesting prepositional conundrum. Technically, in both UK and US English, it's "on sale" just to indicate that something is now available from a supplier that was not available at first. But "for sale" seems to be used as (...)
