  Official LEGO stickers?
 
We often have big adult + kid parties. Both the boys and girls love to play with our big LEGO collection. Does anyone know a source for official LEGO themed stickers? I would love to have a stash to hand out to the children. Bryan (17 years ago, 3-Jul-07, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Sometimes LEGO makes me crazy
 
(...) Thanks for the idea. I'm currnetly using two of these, (URL) nested together (they're apparently designed to do that) to make a four-bladed prop. I use four sets of them in an array. That seems to be my best option so far. Here are some pics: (...) (17 years ago, 2-Jul-07, to lugnet.general, FTX)
 
  Re: 2064 air ambulance
 
The logo appears to be the same as the logo on the recent hospital sets (which were available at retail). I think its supposed to be a generic "hospital" icon. (similar to how real-world hospitals etc are using said icon instead of the old red (...) (17 years ago, 3-Jul-07, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: 2064 air ambulance
 
(...) Dunno, but if you download the instructions[1], you can see the logo, which looks suspiciously like the logo for the Mississippi State Dept of Health's Emergency Medical Services[2] logo. Hope this helps ROSCO 1 - (URL) - (URL) (17 years ago, 3-Jul-07, to lugnet.general)
 
  2064 air ambulance
 
Does anyone know who is selling this set? I see from some places that to get one you have to fly on a certain airline. But which one? (17 years ago, 3-Jul-07, to lugnet.general)

(...) You know, you would think I would have checked first. On the other hand, you know me, so perhaps you wouldn't think I would have checked first! (17 years ago, 2-Jul-07, to lugnet.general, FTX)
 
  Re: Sometimes LEGO makes me crazy
 
(...) Yeah, I had almost exactly the same revelation, but examined the blades first. I've tried to come up with a ducting that would make them useful (they will "pump" air if you could route the central outflow back into the annular "inflow", and (...) (17 years ago, 2-Jul-07, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Sometimes LEGO makes me crazy
 
(...) Sounds like an interesting problem you're facing. Although the blade area is still quite small, the LEGO Znap large wheels, 68mm (if you can find them) have a blade profile which should be able to drive a small wind tunnel. See this part (...)

  Sometimes LEGO makes me crazy
 
A while ago I built a wind tunnel, and I've been wanting to try out the Exo-Force turbines to see if they can provide any more propulsion than the propellers I've been using. After all, they have more blades and the blades have a greater pitch than (...) (17 years ago, 2-Jul-07, to lugnet.general)

  Canada day
 
Using my two Mini Land scale American La France antique fire trucks, I hoisted the Canadian Flag to celebrate Canada Day. See the pic at www.brickshelf.com/c...i?f=263256 Enjoy Jacub (17 years ago, 1-Jul-07, to lugnet.general)

The problem with throwing a wig on a gender neutral face is that the "female" will either be butch or a plain Jane. My male troopers deserve hot counterparts! (17 years ago, 30-Jun-07, to lugnet.general, FTX)

At BrickFest last year the LEGO store gave away some cardboard/foamboard displays during the raffle, and one of them was a sequence of pictures called "The Many Faces of LEGO" -- something like that.

  Re: Brickworld was a Blast!
 
(...) The GMLTC isn't big on tooting our own horn. Heck, our website probably hasn't been updated in a year or more. Conan and Chuck's collection is probably between 2.5 million and 3 million bricks.

  Re: Building equality one female minifig at a time.
 
(...) Though I am radical in my decision to use only "fleshies" on our train layout (but using all of the tones of flesh), I am quite traditional when it comes to faces.
