I've long been a fan of Brickwiki, particularly the well documented pirate glossary which it contains (not so much the 'Drome Racing' stuff, but I guess that addresses a need too), but it seems like the site might be on the way out. I've been trying (...) (16 years ago, 12-Sep-08, to lugnet.publish, lugnet.general)

I am looking for ideas on how to produce lights similar to the style you see on the roof of warehouses, warehouse style retailers etc. The only stipulation is that they must be minifig scale and must have a single stud on top as the attachment point (...)

I really cannot see how LEGO can ethically release this kit since it was created as an exclusive for the employees of Vesta. I would be sorely disappointed in TLG if they did such a thing.
