    [Parts] Plate 1x1 Round with Towball —Steve Bliss
   I ran across one of the 'hands' for old bendy-arm people the other day, and it reminded me of a discussion (which I can't locate now) in these parts about this element, and whether it had a thread-hole in the towball or not.[1] The one I have (ok, I (...)

    (...) I have two different versions of this part... one is (in my collection) always molded in yellow, and was used as hands in the large bendy-arm figures. This one does not have a hole in the towball. The second is always molded in grey, and does (...) (26 years ago, 5-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

   (...) have (...) slim (...) That's interesting -- the one I found was grey, and no towball-hole. I don't have any bendy-arm people, and I don't think they had grey hands. Steve (26 years ago, 6-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

   (...) With or without threading holes in the towball? Steve (26 years ago, 8-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
   
        Re: [Parts] Plate 1x1 Round with Towball —Joshua Delahunty
   (...) I've never seen holes, though that doesn't mean they're not there. :-P (I'm 99% certain that the original, used-for-hands elements, didn't have the hole). FWIW, the instruction scans on kl.net are very high quality, well enough to see that the (...) (26 years ago, 8-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
   
        Re: [Parts] Plate 1x1 Round with Towball —Leonardo Zide
     (...) If you're talking about the yellow hands from the large people, than I'm sure that they have holes. I'm looking at one of those parts right now and it has a hole in it. Maybe there are 2 versions of this part, with and without holes. I'll (...) (26 years ago, 9-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
    
         Re: [Parts] Plate 1x1 Round with Towball —Steve Bliss
     (...) Holes through the stud, or holes through the ball? Steve (26 years ago, 9-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
    
         Re: [Parts] Plate 1x1 Round with Towball —Leonardo Zide
     (...) There's one hole through the stud and the base where it is placed. Leonardo (26 years ago, 10-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
   
        Re: [Parts] Plate 1x1 Round with Towball —Steve Bliss
   (...) I'm not confusing them. But I can't speak for other people. Once we've got part-files created, we'll have firmer ground to talk from. Steve (26 years ago, 9-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
   
        Re: [Parts] Plate 1x1 Round with Towball —Karim Nassar
    (...) No. I am very distinctly talking about the older item. I'm not sure what the new item you are talking about, but both of the elements that I described were in my collection years before Dk Grey became available, and both have a ball and a (...)

        Re: [Parts] Plate 1x1 Round with Towball —Joshua Delahunty
   (...) Again, confusion (<g>): The question on the table is whether the BALL has a hole in it, NOT the stud... (All of mine have always had a hole through the stud). Of course, you did write "hole in the tow ball" earlier, so I'm presuming that this (...) (26 years ago, 10-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
   
        Re: [Parts] Plate 1x1 Round with Towball —Steve Bliss
   (...) [Interesting. That's the North American / US S@H name on an item tagged as European.] (...) You are correct, sir. The only caveats on that are the smallest subs don't have arms, so no grasps. These subs appear in Divers sets 6557 Treasure (...) (26 years ago, 10-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
   
        Re: [Parts] Plate 1x1 Round with Towball —Joshua Delahunty
   (...) Yarp. That's my database telling me that a) there's no name on the box, b) that the set wasn't available to me retail in the U.S., and c) that other name fields need to be checked for the full story. The "U.S. Name" is entered as Deep Sea (...) (26 years ago, 10-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
