I think they are actually a different formulation of ABS than the standard.

I posted my first impression. (talk first-think later, I should know better)
One Lugnet member contacted me and directed me to other discussions on Lugnet.
He wrote "they are done like this on purpose, for a better match of the
colors." He had the same first impression that I did. I like the marbled
appearance of this formulation of ABS but will substitute regular bricks to see
if the fit is better.

I built mine Thurs evening after eating dinner.  They certainly are nice kits,
and I REALLY like the fact that you can carefully fit 2 built cars into one • box
and close it back up for storage (I don't have room to display them right now,

They are nice kits. I stored the two I built in one box, roof to roof.

I HOPE to run them at Xmas time if I can clear the floor space).

I will run these next weekend at the train show RichLug is participating in.

Thanks Tom,

Bert

I was building my new 10025's, just delivered today, and notice the bricks,

They are poorly molded. They are softer and not nearly as crisply molded as
the other bricks. They are not what I expect from Lego.

Just a thought.
