And I thought that it was just me...
I've got quite a few 1x16 bricks and 12x24 megabricks now, and when
assembling them into my new ship, i've noticed that some of the 1x16 bricks
are slightly "off" in that they don't "stick" quite as good at they should.
Nice to know that i'm not going insane or anything over here...
Also, my brother has been compaining for about a year now that they just
don't seem to be making Lego as good as they used too. I just attributed
that to poor set design, but maybe the problem actually lies in the quality
control.
