In case anyone is interested, I thought I'd pass on some info from new container ship color survey. Right now, both the dark green (no not regular green) and dark blue choices are neck and neck. There have been 579 English NA 207 English EU 96 (...) (22 years ago, 7-Jun-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general, lugnet.announce, lugnet.color) !

Niels - Thanks for the great comparison. I really enjoy analyzing old lego parts too :) Have you done comparisons like this for other parts? I was looking at some of my old 2x8 bricks (with old LEGO logo on them) and noticed that some of the logos (...) (22 years ago, 7-Jun-04, to lugnet.general, FTX)

(...) Thanx all, The lot contained some 2x4 duplo bricks as well (only 2x4s). Including some white bricks, I didn't know there were white duplo bricks back then. I never had much duplo when I was young, I guess I only had a small boat with a figure. (...) (22 years ago, 6-Jun-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.duplo, FTX)

(...) Hi Niels, the brick was used in a Duplo set of the early 70s. I don't know the set number, sorry. And you are on the right way. Put a rope through the brick and you can use this to pull a basic car. I can only offer you a german reference for (...) (22 years ago, 6-Jun-04, to lugnet.general, FTX)

Recently I found another variant of the 4 x 4 turntable. (URL) The red, white and black turntable on the top row are all the dimpled versions. (used between 1969 and 1976, according to peeron) The white turntable on the bottom row is completely (...) (22 years ago, 5-Jun-04, to lugnet.general, FTX)

Among a lot of 2nd hand lego from the seventies (ca 1971 - 1977, no older bricks) I found a red 2x4 brick with a small hole in the top. The hole looks perfect, so I don't think someone has drilled it in the brick. I could not find any reference (...) (22 years ago, 5-Jun-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.cad)

I've noticed for some time that some people put some WASTEFUL notes about sets, for instance: (URL) the notes "MISB" or "##% off"... I've mostly wondered how much webspace these notes waste?
