Thomas--if you've got it in immediate memory, there are two items that've defying my search: The new Jack Stone container (part # stamped on the 4x4x4 container piece is 30639) and the "doors" that connect via a click hinge (numbered 30625).

I understand some parts like those exist, but not from LEGO (they were made by a clone brand, sorry I dunno which). (...) (23 years ago, 24-Feb-02, to lugnet.db.brictionary)

I found an unusual part while inventorying a recent eBay purchase of used LEGO. I found two identical elements that are blue 2x4 plates -- except when the two of them are connected, they equal the thickness of a regular brick. In other words, they (...)
