Hello!

I was totally surprised by this when I rebuilt this set for the first time.
I had no idea that they could be used this way!

I wonder what purposes the turned headlight bricks serve in the place you
showed. They seem to be there just for the looks. Or wait: Does the base of the
headlight give support to the transgreen Facet Top? Turning the headlight brick
makes its base stand out by 1/6 brick-width. (Which makes it additionally hard
to use it this way since you don't always have the room to absorb this
outstanding 1/6 brick-width.)


Bye
