Hi, Sorry if this have ever been discussed. What is justifying the use of BLUE Technic Pin 1/2 - http://www.peeron.com/inv/parts/4274 ? more precisely in Technic sets such as 8436 Truck (http://www.peeron.com/inv/sets/8436-1) instead of the good old gray ones (please no "joke" on gray color issue thanks). For example the use of 'Technic Pin Long with Stop Bush' (32054) - http://www.peeron.com/inv/parts/32054 - as keylock - are justified in RED (from my point of view) because these parts have specific function and the color underline this function (in the 8436 for example). Any idea ? Hope I am clear. Didier Enjary

Salut Didier, (...) I think they are using different colors for different pins to make building easier, so younger children can do it. And blue for the half-pin seems to be the standard now. JÃ¼rgen (20 years ago, 17-Jan-05, to lugnet.color, lugnet.parts, lugnet.technic)
