If someone manages to write up a petition, I'll see to have it translated in German for the next larger AFOL event over here (Frechen, January 8th and 9th), and round up some people to get it signed (Which should not be a problem at all, (...)

When Lego sloped bricks first came out in 1958 (in red, blue slopes came in production in 1960), it was one of a 13 piece roof system. The other 12 pieces are still in production, but (...)
