 | | Are brown plates available? —Erik Olson
|
| | | I'm looking for sources of brown plates in 1x or maybe 2x. If any besides 1x2 and 1x3 are in current sets I haven't noticed those sets yet. Big chunky 1x6 or 1x8 would be terrific. Any pointers, or anybody want to trade? (24 years ago, 26-Jun-00, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)

| | | | | | Thanks for the tips. I'll be darned: The droid fighter is pretty useful after all. It's got brown 2x4 plates, and 2x3 plates, and stuff. There are brown plates it looks like in the AAT and MTT sets. I see a pair of 1x8 in the big Bulls 6096 set. I (...) (24 years ago, 27-Jun-00, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)

| | | | | | | That AAT looks pretty cool IMHO. But is that a pneumatic air tank I see sticking out of the MTT at the front, on the left of picture?
