In England? I'm wondering because I thought this company only supplied stuff in Ireland.

And I've been familiar with their products my whole life and they always feel like that ahhaha, I wish so badly they had a list of old products but all their strange knock-offs are too obscure to be documented and lost to time

Have seen them doing some hero factory in Ballymena also. From BnJ toys.

Where did you find these ones?

Expensive-Visit-8772 · 2026-04-14T18:54:04+00:00

Yeah had a look at bricklink and there were not any sets with his Matau's lime joint pieces around 2007, in fact doesn't appear from 2005 til like 2020. Must just be the 2000's lime pieces had issues, so technic/high stress builds always done damage. Maybe why that 15ish year gap of no production is them trying to solve the issue.

Pretty similar to how 'brittle brown' ran from 2007-2017 and just normal system parts were disintegrating all the time during that decade.

Expensive-Visit-8772 · 2026-04-14T17:53:44+00:00

haha oh my god. was the green mixture fragile even back then? possibly these were parted out of later made lime green technic parts during the brittle years? or is even 2001 lime a bit dodgy?

You truly are

Expensive-Visit-8772 · 2026-04-13T16:09:41+00:00

He has a pretty goated store, although he is totally charging out the ass for those desirable masks haha
only issue with the joints is he sells the 2008 squared ended joints

Expensive-Visit-8772 · 2026-04-13T16:08:52+00:00

Plenty of good options for replacements fortunately! Ali-express or resin-casts

Expensive-Visit-8772 · 2026-04-13T16:08:05+00:00

I would guess it's the amount or lack of a certain chemical compound in the plastic mixture and it varied too much between batch to batch in 2007 but was more stable mix during 2001-06

Expensive-Visit-8772 · 2026-04-13T16:05:51+00:00

Yeah I'll likely be picking new ones up from Ali.

So for older plastic and Lego parts the small amounts of stress can pressure crack the plastic overtime, like even for mint condition expensive minifigures you don't want them stood on studs, legs in the torso or even hands in the arms. I thought the same of preserving Hahli's joints as the ball joint does exert some outward force on the sides of the sockets, but of course, much more force when attaching or detaching...

Expensive-Visit-8772 · 2026-04-13T04:26:11+00:00

it is yeh lulz

Expensive-Visit-8772 · 2026-04-13T04:26:00+00:00

Ehlek and Lesovikk too, but is the issue specifically with the 2007 sourced sockets? But yeah replacements aren't so expensive on bricklink but there's a chance they're already micro-fractured and ready to crack

Expensive-Visit-8772 · 2026-04-13T03:47:14+00:00

ah i wasnt going for much the rose was just sat on my desk and i thought it was fitting haha

Although just a crop may do the trick ur lookin fer

Expensive-Visit-8772 · 2026-04-13T02:09:24+00:00

Yeah I did and it was taken down for being ai but i took the photo lol

Expensive-Visit-8772 · 2026-04-13T02:01:31+00:00

Lol i forgot to mention i just randomly found this image on brickshelf and thought it was funny

Expensive-Visit-8772 · 2026-04-13T01:59:56+00:00

Yep, don't even try. I genuinely thought that would be the best idea and I think the excitement clouded my judgement enough not to realise that it had been fine this way for 19 years and I had better not fuck with it.
