FUT ---> .castle only Hi, folks! I'm in need of some suggestions as to how to attach this helicopter rotor: (URL) a Technic axle. The rotor is designed to fit on a pin and spin freely, I'd like to use it as the base for the vanes of a windmill and (...) (23 years ago, 18-Jan-03, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.technic, lugnet.general)

(...) YES!! Way to go, Steve. (...) It was *awesome* to see your models in action. :-) Made me totally want one. LEGO Company: take note! the RCX can impress without shooting household pets, breaking dinner plates, or videoing sis in bathroom (as (...)

(...) I had this identical problem, so it's not just you. Certain colors are *horribly* rendered, such as the orange in the Star Wars mini sets (check out the pod racers-- the orange in Sebulba's racer is way off). It doesn't always lead directly to (...)

Wonder why LEGO went with (...) Not really... The (early) Lugnet version is from an early "leak" courtesy of 1000steine.de (which is why it is in German). The (later) Brickset version is the actual retail copy of the set. Lucious Malfoy is supposed (...) (23 years ago, 18-Jan-03, to lugnet.harrypotter, lugnet.general)

(...) His name is Lucius Malfoy...and he comes from a very rich and prestigeous Wizarding family, so I guess his "snotty" behaviour is somewhat justified. Ben (23 years ago, 18-Jan-03, to lugnet.harrypotter, lugnet.general)

(...) Oh yeah... the quality of instructions, plus all the new colors, makes it difficult to build stuff sometimes. Back when there was only black, white, and grey, I had no problems telling the 3 apart. Now that they've added dark grey, I find (...) (23 years ago, 18-Jan-03, to lugnet.general)

(...) It's not just you it's impacted me, at least. I consider it a retrograde step too, it tripped me up confusing white and grey. Milton Train Works(tm) instructions will not use shading in the foreseeable future, I don't think... (23 years ago, 17-Jan-03, to lugnet.general)
