Now, who can build a orange ship? I can´t but I´ve heard that the
Halloween
buckets contain orange parts.


I have an orange ship. Built from 100% orange pieces.  It is called the
SUN-21 Transport. It is built on a macrofig scale (between minifig and
microfig).  I have it in LDRAW and will soon be posting links to my
redesigned site with this ship included.

Mini is 1/1,000 and micro is 1/1,000,000.  Macro is 1,000 isn't it?  This
would put macrofig at larger than minifig.  Typically, microfig is anything
smaller than minifig scale.  Nanofig is "smaller than that," which is very
ambiguous, since microfig has no defined lower limit.  I propose that microfig
should put a person as "relatively close" to a 1x1x1 brick.  That would allow
nanofig to have a better definition.

Macrofig would then be better to describe large scale buildings.  As the old
people and/or technic figs have been refered to as megafigs, what would be
macrofig?
