  Braith's Panel Van (and Re: TRU specials)
 
(...) Thanks Braith, A return to Perth is indeed possible. Your bonus box selection is considerably different from Jonathan's 3314. Different and interesting enough to warrant another 'roll of the dice' to buy more IMHO. Having seen the panel van in (...) (20 years ago, 28-Nov-04, to lugnet.loc.au)

(...) Just in case no one has clarified it yet. The tubs found in North America so far (yes, here in Canada too :-D have been mostly old greys in the tubs with occasional new grey bits in the bonus boxes.

  Re: TRU specials
 
(...) It seems to be mostly classic greys, with the occasional bley part thrown in. As these are supposedly extra parts originally bound for other sets, I guess they took a while to put together hence they're mostly from pre-2004 sets. ROSCO (20 years ago, 22-Nov-04, to lugnet.loc.au, FTX)
 
  Re: TRU specials
 
(...) Hey folks, Does the tub come with old greys or new greys? As a 2004 set I would guess new ones but peeron lists it as having the old ones. Cheers Matthew (20 years ago, 22-Nov-04, to lugnet.loc.au, FTX)
 
  Re: TRU specials
 
(...) The 8 x 16 baseplates are 'Light Green', the 1 x 6 plates are 'Aqua' according to BL. Peeron lists the 1 x 6 plates in 5850 as 'Aqua'. All these colours...if we were true purists, we would all learn Danish and call them whatever Lego calls (...) (20 years ago, 22-Nov-04, to lugnet.loc.au)

(...) I got some too. Would trans-smoke teeth belong in a chain-smoking Creator dimosaur ? (...) Aqua is a nice colour, but not a huge range of elements are available.

  Re: TRU specials
 
(...) According to Peeron, they are "light green". Not very descriptive I know. They are the same colour as the Paradisa baseplates. The grille tiles on the 8417 Mag Wheel Master are listed as being "aqua", and are a different colour to the bonus (...) (20 years ago, 22-Nov-04, to lugnet.loc.au)

  Re: TRU specials
 
If you do some piece research, you'll find that these are most likely production overruns from current or recently-discontinued sets. I haven't found pieces in the three I bought that are in sets older than 2000. As for the pink, that's probably (...) (20 years ago, 20-Nov-04, to lugnet.loc.au)
 
  Re: TRU specials
 
(...) Did Jango's brick come from an actual set ? The medium (between pink and dark pink) pink shade 2x4s seem pretty close to a clone pink colour, as does Jango's violet shade. Cloning the clones ? pete.w (liker of strange colours) (20 years ago, 20-Nov-04, to lugnet.loc.au, FTX)
