(...) Well, to my mind the HP sets had a similar problem with the bearded guy whose face was misprinted such that even though the minihead will sit lower (or correctly), you have to raise it up so that the glasses do not appear to be located beneath (...)

(...) Argh!!! When I posted the above, I had only looked in the polybag. Now that I have built the set I have discovered that the brown beards are not moulded properly and prevents the head from sitting as low as it should on the neck. So, while the (...)

One of the Shifty sets is a copy of Lego's 1932 Wizard's Cart (URL) so you would think if you saw the box featuring a blue wizard with white beard pulling a cart. However, a Shifty set is always a bit of a lucky dip on colours, so it should have (...) (22 years ago, 25-Jun-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

(...) compatible and (...) is not (...) I just bought another Shifty set. This one is a Pirate/Imperial set, an obvious copy of Lego's 6279 Skull Island. (URL) cost $35 (US$20) and was the largest Shifty set available. The Lego equivalent cost US$53 (...) (22 years ago, 25-Jun-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

The presumption about clone elements, in particular, is that to most Lego collectors they are little better than garbage -- hence my inducement, or bounty, that they sell them to me instead of (...)

(...) Your images/descriptions are laudably clear. About the prices/bounties however-- are the bounties in addition to an agreed upon price between buyer and seller, or is that the total price you are willing to pay? As for unpriced items, I assume (...) (22 years ago, 24-Jun-02, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade, lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

(...) Notice this makes the end of a Best-Lock brick 5/16" square, the same as a one-stud surface grid. If they had holes on the ends, that would make for some interesting possibilities... except I can't get excited about the colors, their gripping (...)
