  Re: African American Minifigs
 
(...) For what it's worth, I agree. I think that yellow is fine for representing lighter skinned races such as Caucasians and East Asians, but a bit of a stretch for darker-skinned races, such as South Asians, Africans, and Australian Aborigines.

  Minifig Heads
 
Is it just me or are some of our minifig heads evolving? I mean it all started with Jar Jar Bink's head in the 1999 Star Wars EPI Series of toys. That head was a pain in the slag. I've noticed that C-3PO's head looks that way too. And Chewies'. I (...) (24 years ago, 4-Aug-00, to lugnet.build.minifigs)

  African American Minifigs

(...) You could probably build it deeper, into a wall, so that it would release a 1x1 cylinder when a 100$ green tile was inserted into a slot--I'm brainstorming now! Anyhow, it wouldn't be that much more expensive than Pepsis from the machine seem (...) (24 years ago, 4-Aug-00, to lugnet.build)

  Re: Pepsi Machine
 
(...) Nicely done! I like the Pepsi logo detail and hint of hinge on the left. The proportions are also not too far off from minifig scale. I built a replica of your design and put the "Joy of Cola" girl next to it. Gulp well, Andreas Stabno (URL) (24 years ago, 4-Aug-00, to lugnet.build)

  How to clean parts
 
I just got an older set off of e-bay, and it seems to have yellowed from dust or smoke. What is the best way to get these parts clean, without fading any of the colors? Any suggestions will be apreciated! Tom Heidemann (24 years ago, 3-Aug-00, to lugnet.build)
