So does LegoCo.
(E.g., "Small Beams and Plates", set # 5228,
on pg. 58 of the newest catalog I've received,
"Explore New Worlds" title.)
In my mind, that makes it "official".
(But then again, I could be wrong.)

"Technic Beam (No Studs)"
"Technic Beam Studless"

| (...) Good point. But I wouldn't accept the wording in a catalog as 'official'. (...) Maybe. But that implies there are "beams with studs". And there aren't. The traditional "technic brick with holes" is a different animule than the new beams. Steve (24 years ago, 14-Sep-00, to lugnet.cad)
