Gender changers...and no, I don't mean more wigs for the minifigs. What I would like would be plates with studs on both sides...so that we could make round windows out of the arches, and then some kind of brick with recesses on both sides, so we (...) (25 years ago, 9-Mar-00, to lugnet.dear-lego)

(...) I've always wanted those too, but you can still get that effect with a little creativity, you can use technic pieces to flip stuff in any direction you want and It will look even cooler because you can make it subtle so people will scratch (...) (25 years ago, 9-Mar-00, to lugnet.dear-lego)

<description of system of low slopes> How about stud-less slopes while we're at it, just the sloping part, no brick on the edge? I think that after Lego makes all of these different types of slope bricks for all situations, then, they should take a (...) (25 years ago, 9-Mar-00, to lugnet.dear-lego)

Speaking of service packs that I would love to see... after spending countless hours trying to make custom minifigs, I have come to the conclusion that 95% of all minifigs have yellow hands. It would be great if Lego sold replacement hand sets. (...) (25 years ago, 16-Mar-00, to lugnet.dear-lego)

Based on the 1x2 tile with center stud, I would really like to have 2x4 tiles with one row of centered studs (4 studs down the middle long ways). This piece would be great for adding detail to structures. My idea is to use them between rows of 2x (...) (25 years ago, 26-Mar-00, to lugnet.dear-lego)

(...) Yup, you are correct. I simply forgot about these pieces. I have used them as gender changers in the past, but do not like them much due to the rounded ends. For now, however, that is all we have and I guess I can be happy with that until a (...) (25 years ago, 3-Apr-00, to lugnet.dear-lego)
