Tell me I'm not seeing things. . . I have in my hand a roughly 3 x 4 x 1 LtTrBlue windscreen from set 6392. I can quite clearly read the number as 4866.

(...) These date back to the early days of Technic, back when it was called "Lego Expert Builder" in the US. I think you are talking about this piece: (2 URLs) think mine came with my set #107, 4.5v motor set: (URL) peeron doesn't list any sets for (...) (23 years ago, 4-Jan-02, to lugnet.db.brictionary)

I picked up a tub of second hand parts today and was surprised to come across a piece that I've never seen before. The pieces (there were 4 of them) can best be described as a grey 2x4 technic brick. - Same size as a 2x4 brick. - 3 holes through the (...) (23 years ago, 4-Jan-02, to lugnet.db.brictionary)

(...) well, if the part has a partsref number, then it doesn't need a picture, since all parts in partsref have dats. So we only need pictures of parts that are not in partsref.

(...) You're absolutely right. I keep planning on updating those parts. Basically, the Castle, Space, and Town categories should go away. Train will stay, because there are many train-specific pieces. Ditto for any other theme-like categories. Steve (23 years ago, 29-Jun-01, to lugnet.db.brictionary)
