I have three Yodas. :-) I agree there is a disturbing lack of basic bricks out there. Like you I have 7 3033 in reserve, but there are few options once those have been used. As you say the bulk selection is expensive and doesn't include several (...) (22 years ago, 18-Jun-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

I was listening to the radio, and it sounds like the local Toronto government is trying to pressure the Feds and the Provice to get some additional transportation money to expand the subway system. I hear they are trying to add a third line to the (...) (22 years ago, 18-Jun-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

Something struck me as a big problem with Lego lately while building part of my train station today-we don't have a good source of basic 1x and 2x bricks anymore. I've got like six unopened 3033's left, but after that...does this concern anyone (...) (22 years ago, 18-Jun-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

There is no advantage to buying a 2.0 RCX brick at all, and the only (...) (22 years ago, 18-Jun-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
