Hello, I was recently given the opportunity to write an argumentative research paper on any topic I wanted so, of course, LEGO® was an obvious choice. Basically, I wrote about what I did and didn't like about the company and what I'd do to change (...) (21 years ago, 19-Dec-04, to lugnet.general)

What are the rarest printed parts? I own both of the printed 1 x 6 x 5 astronaut bricks from classic space (and some other printed classic space bits) but I have the feeling there are rarer printed bits out there. (21 years ago, 18-Dec-04, to lugnet.general)
