Re: The mythical gender-changing plates —Richard W. Schamus
Why don't people ask me? I'm one of the BEST resident experts on clones and clone piece types. Tyco made male to male gender changers. They unfortunately have a 1/6 bick space that the studs attatch to. (For those that need help understanding the (...) (25 years ago, 31-Mar-00, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

	(...) Aw, Rich, that hurts! You know I'm also a quite rabid apologist for clones! Dave! (25 years ago, 31-Mar-00, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

		Re: The mythical gender-changing plates —Richard W. Schamus
		(...) Yes Dave, I know. You - me, a few others, (Joseph Gonzalez to be notable as well). But how many know how many colors these things come in? (Some of my close WAMALUG peers would say, that's a bad thing, but I don't care.) Rich -- Have Fun! (...) (25 years ago, 31-Mar-00, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

			Re: The mythical gender-changing plates —Dave Schuler
			(...) Hmm... You raise a good point, and you also bring to mind another question: Do you have any idea how many "non-standard" clone pieces there are? That is, pieces that aren't readily equated, in terms of shape, to existing Lego pieces? That (...) (25 years ago, 31-Mar-00, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

				(...) Are we gonna stick with things that have a stud, and/or "hole," or that can be held onto by a minifig hand, (dowel {sp?} diameter), or are we gonna go the "full" spectrum.

		Re: The mythical gender-changing plates —Richard W. Schamus
		(...) OOOPs! Where was my mind at. (I was "thinking" 4's... 2x2). Sorry for any "mess with the people" stuff. (How many times do I have to type it?) 2x2 2x2 2x2 2x2 2x2 ... Rich -- Have Fun! C-Ya!

	(...) [actually 2 X 2, as noted by another poster] (...) O.K., for the first time my local TRU has a rather large selection of MegaBlocks. I was impressed with the high price:part ratio in their sets, and some of the models actually looked quite (...) (25 years ago, 3-May-00, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

		Re: Gender-changing plates -- in new MegaBlocks sets? —Chris Gray
		(...) I've got inventories of some of them on my site. According to those, the #9761 Desert Patrol has 11 tan double-sided 2x2's. That's all I see, but I don't have inventories of the #9745 WaveBreaker or of the two new smaller green military sets (...) (25 years ago, 3-May-00, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
