  Re: What part is Bob Fay using here?
 
I guess it's called a 'polarity switch' I did about a million different searches to try and find one, and there's one for sale at a Norwegian brickbay store for $12, and I'm wondering if that's worth it...you say I can find it from pitsco? Do they (...) (23 years ago, 3-Apr-01, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: What part is Bob Fay using here?
 
(...) That's a polarity switch. There's 2 in the 8480 space shuttle, and 2 in the 8082 universal set. There may be others. Regards, ROSCO (23 years ago, 3-Apr-01, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: What part is Bob Fay using here?
 
(...) I don't think the polarity switch is available at Pitsco anymore. I couldn't find it in the printed catalog (BYMM 2001) or on the site. (23 years ago, 3-Apr-01, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: What part is Bob Fay using here?

  Re: What part is Bob Fay using here?
 
Well, I don't think I wanna spend that kind of dough to get one of them. I haven't bought a space shuttle yet just because of the price, but I think, if it comes with two polarity switches, I might have to break down and get it now... After all, (...) (23 years ago, 3-Apr-01, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: What part is Bob Fay using here?
 
(...) Mmm... I've bought about four of them (or was it two?) from LEGO Service in Europe for about $6 per piece. I did buy (another) two space shuttles for $200 total this weekend, new in box, from a toy store in Sweden (they had another, but I (...) (23 years ago, 3-Apr-01, to lugnet.technic)
