Hi all,
Today I received a package from Sonnich Jensen in Estonia
(Thanks Sonnich!) containing four of the Classic Space
trans-dk-blue 6x5x2 inverse 33 1/3 slope "buckets". I love
these pieces, but it got me thinking: they're borderline
POOPs in that one could build the same form from standard
bricks, albeit not one of the same appearance. So I have
a question for the masses to which I don't know the answer:
Does anyone know when the first POOPs (Piece [that can be
made] Of Other Pieces) appeared in a LEGO set? What were
they? And were the pseudo-POOPs (like the inverse buckets
above) that require their POOP nature to perform a function
really the first step towards the Juniorization we love to
hate?
Fire away, LEGO historians!
best,
Lindsay
