    Blue 12x12 1/4 circle base brick

Or is that a transparent base brick ? Let's hope so.

You might be right, it does match the color of the 6x6 roof which is
definitely trans blue (I'm guessing this is actually the new trans blue
that Belville has which is a little darker than trans light blue). If
so, it would be really cool, and would likely result in me getting four
copies of the set so that I can make a nice little pond...

Take 4 of them and use them in the middle of 4 (24 x 24 w 1/4 circle cutout)
green base bricks from 5987, or that's what I'm planning.

   It definitely looks like a plate.  Given that the mold is new,
   I wouldn't be surprised if they're getting mileage out of it.

   That polar bear in the big set looks nice and menacing for minifigs,
   too.

   Frank, where did you see pictures?

In the Belville section of:

Must say I wasn't expecting orange base bricks in Belville, but Arctic did
use many orange elements with whites and blues.

   That looks to me like the new medium yellow orange, not proper System
   orange.

   A plague of Americans, perhaps?

(...) Not as menacing as a Duplo polar bear ;^) (...) That was my first thought. It's always hard working out the colours from box artwork, especially the size of the images on lego.com. (22 years ago, 10-Feb-02, to lugnet.year.2002, lugnet.belville)

(...) Umm, someone's confused here. Pete and I have been discussing the 12x12 quarter circle base brick in 5850. I seriously doubt they've changed to a plate. Perhaps you're thinking about the 8x8 plate in 5838. (...) It's somewhat larger than the (...) (22 years ago, 10-Feb-02, to lugnet.year.2002, lugnet.belville)
