| (...) Didier is right, TLC can't do it, probably it was their legal office to deny it, but it's obvious that it hurts. In someway it's going on the same thing happened whith the Little Armory vs. the new SW guns. I would very happy if TLC would use (...) (18 years ago, 12-Jan-07, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.dear-lego)

Quite honestly I think it sucks but, since I cannot go after TLC, TLC should at least be kind (...) (18 years ago, 6-Jan-07, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.dear-lego, FTX)

Hi Ondrew, I understand your feeling, Maybe aknowledgement is something they would like to give you but they CAN'T simply for legal reasons : they would recognize explicitely that the concept is from you and then they would have to (...)

As seen in this (URL) post> dated Tue, 22 Nov 2005 (URL) I find it odd that the only 3 differences that can seen between (...) (18 years ago, 5-Jan-07, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.dear-lego, FTX)

| (...) Since when does most of what LEGO does make any sense?? I gave up trying to make sense out of what they do many years ago. [1] (...) I consider the new skelton to be an IMPROVEMENT. The old floppy, fall-off skelton arms were not very good. (...) (18 years ago, 29-Dec-06, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.general)

It appears to me that droid arms have been getting a lot more use than as just as arms. As a (...) (18 years ago, 29-Dec-06, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.general, lugnet.town, FTX)

The "lead" skeleton there looks like he might have a droid arm for his *right* arm (because his flail is arguably sideways), but most of the rest of the skeletons are all holding their (...)
