I’ve read with interest the “Building equality one female minifig at a time”
thread started by CL Janey. There’s some interesting discussion there, though I
do wonder if there isn’t a motive not quite as noble as building equality in the
solutions which involve including extra pieces in sets...
However i thought I could turn to Lego Magazine Issue 2 2007 (Australian
edition, if that matters), for some relief from the angst and worry of the
equality discussions on Legnut. Sure enough, the magazine provides useful
information on Lego’s product, including set measurements, but then I turned to
page 8, and read the description of Toha Mahri Kongu as:
...double blasters will make any Barraki run away like school girls!
I think there’s a way to go for Lego yet...
Cheers
Richie Dulin
