"Minfig scale"? "Microfig scale"? "Technic scale"? "Technic scale" makes sense to me. Or at least, I think it does. I presume it means to scale according to the size of the LEGO Technic team, assuming that the characters are around 6 feet tall, or (...) (26 years ago, 26-Jan-99, to lugnet.general)

It's the name of a special cleaning product manufacturer (or distributer), in other words, simply a detergent brand. The special thing about Amway is its distribution and marketing system. You can not buy any Amway product from your favorite store, (...) (26 years ago, 25-Jan-99, to lugnet.general)
