Oct 27	accepted	Are there any mirrored LEGO bricks?
Oct 27	accepted	Why did Technic bricks have holes in the studs?
Oct 27	accepted	Do any of the KRE-O Transformers sets actually transform?
Oct 27	comment	What are the characteristics of “Miniland” scale? @Java: lego.wikia.com/wiki/20201_Microbuild_Designer Official set. Still waiting for the cite. Don't just read numbers, actually look at the results please.
Oct 27	awarded	Nice Question
Oct 27	comment	What are the characteristics of “Miniland” scale? By comparison, your "mini" link contains only three relevant results.
Oct 27	comment	What are the characteristics of “Miniland” scale? @Java: Can you please find a citation for that? Micro-building is a very common Lego term; Lego themselves most recently used it in an MBA set, there is a micro-scale Flikr group at flickr.com/groups/microscale; there is a micro-scale category on MOC at mocpages.com/directory.php/51; etc.
Oct 27	comment	How are LEGO sets designed? I have a hard time believing any manufacturing process, even if kept primarily in European countries as LEGO has done, has not become cheaper and more flexible between 1940 and 2011.
Oct 27	comment	How are the LEGO instruction manuals made? Is this specifically about making the manuals (say, getting the breakdowns, printing, perhaps historically drafting), or about the whole conception-to-box product lifecycle? I read it as the former, which is not a duplicate.
Oct 27	comment	What are the characteristics of “Miniland” scale? Sorry, but your edit forces me to -1. As far as I know miniland scale is what is at the parks, and your first paragraph is about micro-scale. This answer is just getting wronger over time.
Oct 27	comment	Why did Technic bricks have holes in the studs? Sorry, this is a correct point, but -1 because it's not really an answer to anything - it would be better merged into someone else's answer as another example of the same design principle.
Oct 27	revised	What is the bley (blay) color? edited tags
Oct 26	awarded	Nice Question
Oct 26	comment	What are the characteristics of “Miniland” scale? I too would like a citation for LEGO Architecture being "miniland" - I considered it micro-scale.
Oct 26	revised	Why are old LEGO bricks more brittle than new ones? "change" is correct English.
Oct 26	revised	What are the largest Technic-compatible tires on the market? edited body; edited title
Oct 26	awarded	Nice Question
Oct 26	comment	Why are LEGO slope bricks textured? Not all slopes are textured - for example the 1x2x2/3 30° slope is not textured, nor are every non-linear slope I can remember. All the textured ones I can remember are 45° or greater though.
Oct 26	revised	What are the names for these two pieces of a car chassis and a piece for above the wheels? deleted 146 characters in body; edited tags; edited title
Oct 26	comment	What's the most cost effective and efficient way to buy bricks? Are you more interested in buying specific quantities of specialized bricks, or buying specific common bricks in bulk?
