  Re: Q: Piece Identification
 
(...) This piece seems to defy standard description. For a long time, I thought of it as a camera piece (and it does get used that way, sometimes). Some classic-space-heads call it a thruster. As much as I like qualitative part-names(1), it's (...) (26 years ago, 26-Oct-98, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Cancel and supersedes
 
(...) Or you can just post a follow-up which says, "Oops, I goofed. Here's the correction." Which would be the more proper approach, if more than a trivial amount of time has passed since the erroneous posting. I've not used either cancel or (...) (26 years ago, 26-Oct-98, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: New vs. old (was Re: More 1999 Figs... ?)
 
(...) So you do not like new specialized pieces, is that correct? Well, I remember when the space theme appeared for the first time. The magnitude of new specialized pieces was huge! And I loved it! The more specialized pieces, the better. In my (...) (26 years ago, 26-Oct-98, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: New vs. old (was Re: More 1999 Figs... ?)
 
(...) Those in general, plus other Insectoids-secific parts. I don't know for sure the magnitude of Lego's mold obsessiveness, since I don't own one. I think it was definitely a step in the wrong direction for them. Maybe if enough classic lovers (...) (26 years ago, 26-Oct-98, to lugnet.general)
 
  Timmy
 
I'm a newbie, so which one is Timmy? The mini-fig head with white hair? Thanks. (26 years ago, 26-Oct-98, to lugnet.general)

(...) And exactly WHAT is wrong with a spoiler on a Model T? Especially if it has a bigblock, big'n'littles, and runs over 150 in teh 1/4 ;-) (26 years ago, 26-Oct-98, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: RC Car question
 
(...) Someone on RTL sez that they all use the same frequency. :( It's possible though that there are several standard frequencies, and it was just bad luck that the ones tested were the same. (26 years ago, 25-Oct-98, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: RC Car question
 
I would assume it would be a collection of FEQ. but I have noticed, LegoG has only a single car racing on the box. This could be a bad sign. I'll look around my San Jose to see if anyone else has one and I'll race him. we'll see -- Shayn Raney (...) (...) (26 years ago, 25-Oct-98, to lugnet.general)

(...) I agree -- and, they've opened the whole sexism can-o-worms by making only a tiny percentage of the people female. Back when the faces were generic, that was totally up to the person playing. (26 years ago, 25-Oct-98, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: New vs. old (was Re: More 1999 Figs... ?)
 
(...) I dunno. They've got the legos, which would be more useful if they were movable, but still can be applied elsewhere. And the wings are pretty special-purpose, but they look cool anyway. :) What other specialized pieces are you referring to? (26 years ago, 25-Oct-98, to lugnet.general)
