You know the part on Build-A-Santa's Head that is a 1x slice of roof peak, with the funny hollow angled extension that fits over another slope brick... They come in the red roof pack but not the black roof pack, but somehow I've got two from other (...) (24 years ago, 9-Nov-00, to lugnet.general)

Oh, the gables are common in dark gray. In Ninja and Rock Raiders. The smallest RR set has one. (24 years ago, 9-Nov-00, to lugnet.general)

(...) Yes, the only Robo-Raptor sets I've ever purchased were two of the 2152's for these gable "gable connector" pieces that Erik described. The set that had the entire range of black slopes was 730. I was sooooo happy back in the 1980's when I (...) (24 years ago, 9-Nov-00, to lugnet.general)

Wishing for non-existent roof bits: Related to the half-pyramid brick in function: the studless slope. Same slope as a 2x2 slope, but without the 1x2 brick side. Suppose you have a 2x2 brick stack chimney in the side wall, punching through a notch (...) (24 years ago, 10-Nov-00, to lugnet.general)

(...) I agree, the studless slope would be very useful. Most of the existing slopes could be offered in studless half-wide form. How about some more: * inverse slopes in 60-degrees * inverse slopes in 3-long, 4-long and 8-long versions, just like (...) (24 years ago, 10-Nov-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego.direct)

What I would like to see is something where we could build roofs of varying slope degree and have short pieces where we could build in a small attic study part, or something like that. The only problem I can see is it may well end up being a series (...) (24 years ago, 11-Nov-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego.direct)

I notice that some of the airplane slopes (on the top front) are made of 33 degree on the front, and 45 degree on the 2 sides. Perhaps TLC should create 2 pieces from this 3 sided slope, so that it could have applications elsewhere, such as a roof (...) (24 years ago, 13-Nov-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego.direct)

With plates, I can change angles, and have odd-shaped rooflines with (...) (24 years ago, 13-Nov-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego.direct)
