They only came in 6590, I believe, one on top of the camper. I own about 5-6 now ;-) BTW, 1x1 blue tiles aren't THAT hard to come by - I must have dozens (I need to sort them out of all of my bulk, though, and they AREN'T for sale). StarHawk II had (...) (24 years ago, 24-Oct-00, to lugnet.general)

Well, if you find out what else the 2x2 clear tiles were available in, let me know, so I can keep a lookout for them ;-) (...) -- | Tom Stangl, Technical Support Netscape Communications Corp | Please do not associate my personal views with my (...) (24 years ago, 24-Oct-00, to lugnet.general)

Seen that Chevvy on the cover of the Ultimate LEGO book? It's got 1x4 clear tiles on top of the windscreen. I'd love a few of those, but I guess they're LEGO modelmaker only... Duq "James Simpson" <jsimpson@rice.edu> wrote in message (...) (24 years ago, 24-Oct-00, to lugnet.general)

(...) The only set that have a clear tile (2x2) is one of the camper van sets, most probably 6590. The other, older camper van set 6694 has 2x2 clear plates which is also rare I think, at least not in any 1980+ sets. Selçuk (24 years ago, 25-Oct-00, to lugnet.general)

(...) I have one 2x2 clear plate from Ambulance 6680, which I'm pretty sure came out in the time frame of 1980 - 1982. (24 years ago, 25-Oct-00, to lugnet.general)

(...) <snip> Tom, that would be like me saying "blue regular slope outside corners aren't that hard to come by, I must have 150." :-) It all depends on what sets you bought in quantity in the past! Gary Istok (24 years ago, 25-Oct-00, to lugnet.general)

It makes you think... Think about the possibilities for the LEGO modelmakers! I bet they can have as much of a piece they want, in any color they wish! (2*4 trans-red bricks... *drool*) --tobias (...) (24 years ago, 25-Oct-00, to lugnet.general)

(...) Right. Notice that Selcuk said that 6694 has a 2x2 clear plate, and that it is rare in 1980's sets, and I responded that the 6680 1980's era set also has a clear plate. I understand that there is only one set with a clear tile. James (24 years ago, 26-Oct-00, to lugnet.general)
