  Re: Tyco problems
 
(...) When you separated the wall from the dike, did you peel the baseplates off of the bottom of the Tycos? The reason I ask that is that the problem might not be one of fit, but one of slight differences in size. If you put a single row of (...)

  Tyco problems
 
Greetings, fellow non-Conformists ;) I'm not a frequent lurker of this particular forum, so perhaps my observations are old news, but I thought I'd share them anyway. I've purchased clone bricks over time, first for cost reasons, but also I have (...) (22 years ago, 11-Nov-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

Maybe good cardboard costs more than aluminun. (22 years ago, 7-Nov-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

(...) I'm not sure, though; I only had a brief time to examine it. I haven't yet seen the Challenge set anywhere but in your review. I'm not sure I even like the tin containers. I almost certainly won't use them for storage, and they just seem like (...) (22 years ago, 7-Nov-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

(...) Despite the 11/15 date given on Amazon, this set is currently available at two of my local TRU's. Piece count is 805, but unfortunately the brown camo is applied by one of those camo-stick paint pens from the Warriors: Future Force series. I'm (...)

  I want Tente scans
 
Does anyone have Tente scans of catalogs of 1985 - 90 and 91 - 95? And boats instructions? (22 years ago, 31-Oct-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

  Re: Off-topic.clones: I wish TLG would have made this part!
 
(...) Okay, now I get it (I hadn't seen that pic yet). Reminds me of some Europeans (foggy memory alert; help anyone?) who built a train of simply constructed bricks, sort of like what my son did here: (URL) it's a start:-) -John (22 years ago, 23-Oct-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: Off-topic.clones: I wish TLG would have made this part!
 
(...) Well, like I said: (URL)Hmmm, I may have to start liking you, Dave! ;-) Hmm. Now I guess I'll actually have to try to come up with a real 8-wide... Dave! (22 years ago, 23-Oct-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

  Re: Off-topic.clones: I wish TLG would have made this part!
 
(...) If by the above you mean that *you* have created an 8 wide, then I'd say it *does* earn you points-- at least in my book:-) Hmmm, I may have to start liking you, Dave! ;-) -John (22 years ago, 22-Oct-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
 
  Re: Off-topic.clones: I wish TLG would have made this part!
 
(...) Scandalous! Next thing, you'll be applying decals. It's like I don't even know you anymore. (...) I'd like to see those pics, if anyone takes them. To date, the best train-ish creation is about as dynamic as a block of 2x4 bricks. But it's (...) (22 years ago, 22-Oct-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
 
  Re: Off-topic.clones: I wish TLG would have made this part!
 
(...) Actually, I've been reading the whole thread, Dave! Trust me on that, Dave! The fact that the parts were first used in a train creation doesn't mean they are train specific parts to a strict compartmentalist like myself, Dave! (...) Again, (...)

  Re: Off-topic.clones: I wish TLG would have made this part!
 
(...) Well obviously it's because I deleted the part that was relevant to trains before posting it. If you had bothered to read the part I didn't post, it would all be clear to you. My train-related question, since Tony's engrooved bricks first (...) (22 years ago, 22-Oct-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: Off-topic.clones: I wish TLG would have made this part!
 
(...) I'm wondering why this leaked over into .trains... I would say that if there are only 2 bins, "official LEGO(r) parts", and "everything else" these parts belong in the "everything else" bin. But the better solution is a different bin (library) (...) (22 years ago, 22-Oct-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, lugnet.trains, lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: Off-topic.clones: I wish TLG would have made this part!
 
(...) I wonder--since these parts still have the official LEGO logo on the studs, would they even have a place in a clones DB? You've mentioned previously a possible library of dats based on user-modified elements; perhaps Tony's bricks would fit in (...)
