I didn't want to bury this thread under lugnet.parts.... so I put it in
lugnet.general...
We all have Lego parts that we really like.....
But what parts don't you like at all.... what parts do you really dislike? (Yes
I know it sounds like Lego blasphemy!)
But there are a few parts I really don't like....
1) 2x2 and 4x4 stud 1960's red wheels with the old gray tires...YUK!
2) 1x4x3 1970's door with separate frame in a different color. These look more
like windows than doors. Don't like the style at all! No wonder they only
lasted for less than 5 years in the 1970's.
3) Those 1x1x1 "headlight" bricks, which are a poor substitute for windows in
the remake of the USS Constitution (in yellow), and in the new Lego Factory
sets. They remind me of the doors to a Pigeon coop.
What say ye.... what pieces don't you like?

| (...) That must be that darn nylon hinge: (URL) I remember as a child always battling with this - it fell off when it was supposed to stick, and it stuck when I was trying to remove it (hence all the teeth-marks). With regards to the wheels with (...) (19 years ago, 30-Aug-05, to lugnet.general)

| (...) You don't like headlight bricks? o.0 Wow. I never thought I'd hear someone say they disliked one of the most useful and beloved pieces out there. The piece I "hate" (its more of a love/hate relationship) is the old technic ball socket: (URL) (...) (19 years ago, 30-Aug-05, to lugnet.general)

| (...) I really dislike the basketball net. I wish it could connect in some way to more than one piece. It would be useful for numerous things if onlt it could be connected better. For that matter I dislike nearly all of the specialty sports parts. (...) (19 years ago, 30-Aug-05, to lugnet.general)

| (...) Oooh. Fun game... I discovered a new piece just last night which I already hate. Don't own any or know what it's called (2x2 tall dome?) but it is a single part which could be made from a 2x2 round with a 2x2 dome on top. I can see absolutely (...)

| Hello! For some reason I hate this part: (URL). Even if I use it sometimes I have way too many of these. And they come in almost every set. Every once in a while when parting a set I don't even bother putting them in their respective sorting box but (...) (19 years ago, 31-Aug-05, to lugnet.general, FTX)

| Parts I hate (mainly because I own so many of them and find them useless): 1 x 2 technic brick with 2 holes in light grey (I want more black, not light grey) My entire collection of the newer curved parts (i.e. 1 x 6, 2 x 6 and some of the larger (...) (19 years ago, 31-Aug-05, to lugnet.general)

| (...) The gray does look odd compared to black, but like others, I've always liked the idea of being able to build on the wheels. (...) I remember these. They certainly didn't seem to fit mini-figs at all. Don't miss 'em. (...) I can see your gripe (...) (19 years ago, 31-Aug-05, to lugnet.general)

| (...) I generally dislike big parts that have restrictions on how they connect to other pieces. I think LURPs and BURPs are OK, along with 6x6x10 stanchions, but a lot of other pieces that size or bigger are next to useless, unless you're really (...) (19 years ago, 4-Sep-05, to lugnet.general)
