I'm glad that Lego is finally (appearing) to do this. I don't know of them
anywhere else in their products....I know there is a clone (forget the name) a
friend had where it offered very slim 2x2's with studs on both sides, and also
the same for 1x1 round pieces. For the male to male, there was a part
slightly thicker than a 2x2 that accepted studs in both ends. We have found
these very useful..
..anyone for a 'Lego and morality' thread ;)
