I need 12 1x6 or 1x8 smooth plates. Any color. I can get a few in the 8277 Giant Builder. Any body know of another set that has an abundance of these plates? I use them for ways on my machines. Any help is appreciated. (26 years ago, 1-Jan-99, to lugnet.build)

Yeah, but at the time, I thought that the gear in the cybermaster kit looked alot like the new crown gear. I also have some other evidence... (A post will follow with some proof when I can get a make-shift website up together) (...) (26 years ago, 1-Jan-99, to lugnet.build)

(...) But there are no new gears in the CyberMaster set, are there? True, there are the yellow 3 stud diameter wheels which the tracks go round, but I would hardly call them gears? A new crown gear? Sounds plausible to me. Fredrik (26 years ago, 1-Jan-99, to lugnet.build)

Very nice design! I love it when everything comes together so neatly. The hardest part for me when trying to do things like that is to get all the gears and tie-downs to align. I built your version (all in black -- I won't have the yellow beams (...) (26 years ago, 31-Dec-98, to lugnet.build)

I was gonna announce the same thing when I saw it. From what I can tell it is a new crown gear but I figured everyone would have known because of the cybermaster gears so I kept quiet. However it IS a new crown gear (I think) (...) (26 years ago, 31-Dec-98, to lugnet.build)

I just discovered a very nice storage case that does excellent duty for all my Lego Technics parts. It's the Popular Mechanics Lid-Storage Organizer (PM58261). It's about the size of a thick laptop computer, approx. 15" X 12" X 3.5", has an (...) (26 years ago, 30-Dec-98, to lugnet.build)
