  Re: Palm Tree Junior
 
That's a 1x2 plate with HANDLE, not side-clip ;-) Everyone else was talking about the new 1x2 brick with side clip (horizontal clip, holds things vertically). (...) -- | Tom Stangl, Technical Support Netscape Communications Corp | Please do not (...) (25 years ago, 9-Mar-00, to lugnet.dear-lego)

(...) James, we must be reading from the same wish list. I like your answers! I would add to the sloped bricks, inside (concave) corner bricks in extreme and low slope sizes (along with the needed peaks and peak connectors). I would also like to (...)

  Re: Elements I'd like to see...
 
(...) Since the topic has come up again...I'd like to see: Inverse corners, roof peak ends, roof peak joiners, and roof peak corners for the low-sloped bricks. Ditto for the steep sloped corners. Pieces for changing roof pitch - mostly corners and (...) (25 years ago, 9-Mar-00, to lugnet.dear-lego)  
 
  Re: Palm Tree Junior
 
(...) I find this piece good, actually. It allows me to center things in walls that are even in length (2 studs, 4 studs, etc), which can't be done with a 1x1 plate w/clip. Having the various clips on bricks also means that the back side of the wall (...) (25 years ago, 9-Mar-00, to lugnet.dear-lego)
 
  Re: Elements I'd like to see...
 
(...) 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)

  Elements I'd like to see...
 
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 (...)

Rich, Well apart from the Lego situation its a very nice place. If you ever want a place where you can visit and just think about lego without actually having any, It'd be perfect. We might even let you in on our secrets to thinking about LOTS of (...) (25 years ago, 9-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains.org, lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Palm Tree Junior
 
(...) Agreed - a 1x2 plate with side clip would have been an interesting new piece, perhaps not that useful.. but the extra two 1x2 plates would have been nice! It is poopy in principle (in my mind anyway), as I haven't seen a use for it that (...) (25 years ago, 9-Mar-00, to lugnet.dear-lego)

  Re: No LEGOFest...

  Re: Palm Tree Junior
 
(...) Strictly speaking, the 1x2 brick with side clip isn't a POOP--you can't build it out of other pieces. But it is a juniorized, un-lego-ish nightmare. Should have been a 1x2 plate with a side clip. Steve (25 years ago, 8-Mar-00, to lugnet.dear-lego)
