I'm thinking of a modern (minifig era) Lego element that cannot be attached to any other Lego element. Sure, there might be more than one but I wonder how long it will take for someone to guess mine :-) I'll post my answer tomorrow if nobody guesses (...) (24 years ago, 10-Jan-01, to lugnet.general)
