  Re: What's the Basplate in 928?
 
(...) Probably. That wasn't the only set that had that baseplate however. There was a "Landing Plates" accessory pack that had one of those and a "T" intersection with the same yellow and white striping. --Bill. (22 years ago, 27-Nov-02, to lugnet.db.brictionary)
 
  24-tooth Technic gear confusion - Part(s) 3648, 3648a, x187
 
I am really confused about the variations on the 24-tooth Technic gear which appear in quite a number of the sets I am attempting to inventory/verify. First of all there seem to be two major variations: the earlier one has three axle holes, and the (...) (22 years ago, 27-Nov-02, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.db.brictionary, lugnet.db.inv)
 
  Re: What's the Basplate in 928?
 
I don't know if this helps or not, but I own 497 and two sets of 454 (probably ... they MIGHT be 306 as I do not have the sleeves anymore and I did visit Denmark a couple times during my Space years).

  Re: What's the Basplate in 928?
 
(...) Although I'm not sure if I own 454 or 306 (or something else), I do own 1 set of landing plates (probably purchased for me between 1982 and 1984), and I'm 99% certain that they're the 2nd type of baseplate shown. I don't believe I've ever seen (...) (22 years ago, 22-Nov-02, to lugnet.db.brictionary)
 
  What's the Basplate in 928?
 
I'm confused. Looking at the instruction scans, it appears that the baseplate in 928, 497, 306, and 454 is (URL) then where does this baseplate appear (URL) (Yes, Peeron has problems here. . .working on that. . .)

  Color Chart [Re: The shades of blue]
