  prototype bricks?
 
Looking for any photos of prototypes or the actual sculpting process of the Lego elements. I've seen the ones of the shmazy car on the Lego site and a couple of Bionicle mask prototypes and if anyone knows of any others would be most appreciated. ~ (...)

  Re: Happy birthday, Minifig!
 
(...) (raises a glass) here's to those selfless little folks that brave pets and vacuum cleaners to turn our castles, towns, racetracks, and space colonies more than just collections of bricks and into living, breathing places. Here's to you, (...) (23 years ago, 4-Jan-03, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: 10066 on LSAH
 
(...) Yes, yes, you can mix and match. The discount is for ordering 15 total bags, from all of the qualifying bags. They don't all have to be the same bag. If you had to order 15 of the same item to get the discount, very few people would actually (...) (23 years ago, 4-Jan-03, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.general)

Dave, Don't know what you mean by a proper rainbow, but my Color Tree may be of help: (URL) Lim also keeps a stack of 2x4 bricks in progressive colors: (URL) that helps, Clark (...) (23 years ago, 4-Jan-03, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: 10066 on LSAH
 
(...) Didn't order triple digits, but I did just order 40 of them. This apparently was enough for Lego to send me an email asking me to confirm whether I really wanted 40 of them or not. (...) Yes, using the code will show the discounted price right (...) (23 years ago, 3-Jan-03, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.general)
 
  Re: ABS... but which one?
 
(...) You mean to say you were... *targeting*? ;-) (...) Precisely. It's based on a feeling, and I'm not alone in that. OTOH, I may be wrong - human nature is not famous for it's infallibility...

  Block Death
 
Has anyone ever visited this site? (URL) been one of my favorite flash cartoon sites for a while, but a new addition called Block Death just caught my eye. Interesting moments included the Bathroom Overdose/Puke scene. I didn't know Minifigs could (...) (23 years ago, 3-Jan-03, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: ABS... but which one?
 
I have bought some lately (bulk) that seem to not even want to stay together. Out of a stack of 25 2x4 bricks. I usually find 1 or 2 that fall apart from its proposed partner. I always just find another spot for them or take them out of the model. (...) (23 years ago, 3-Jan-03, to lugnet.general)

  Re: ABS... but which one?
 
(...) I didn't say that; perhaps I was not clear enough. What I meant was: brand new bricks bought 10 years ago (before the claimed ABS change), and brand new bricks bought *now* click different from each other. In fact, the more recent ones don't (...) (23 years ago, 3-Jan-03, to lugnet.general)

  Re: ABS... but which one?

  Re: ABS... but which one?
 
(...) Thanks for posting your experience, Allan. What I'm curious now is knowing how the more recent bricks will be in 25 years. If they look "less good" than the previous at this point in time, perhaps in 25 years they will have become *wrecks*. (...) (23 years ago, 3-Jan-03, to lugnet.general)
 
  2002 Rocket list!
 
Hi all! I've made a list of the 2002 rockets, that is, the people that increased their posting the most. I used Dan's list of how many posts each person did in 2001 & 2002 and calculated the difference. To keep this post a little shorter (and my (...)

  Star Wars Dioramas?
 
Or the lack of interest in building them? For a genre that has so much potential in building scenes straight from the movies, I’ve been surprised when I joined up that the search only produced a handful of results.
