 		Just a quick idea As we have sort of assumed they are asteriod numbers how about an anagram of the first letters of them?

Hmm... maybe I just have it on the brain, but doesn't that work toward the Lego idea? The first number being the lego part and the next three numbers being their XYZ coordinates? And no need for Toys R Us - MLCAD should do. I'll post a copy of the problem on LUGNET and see if anyone feels like working it out.

I think you are right. I was thinking:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
the colour groups might be items of the overall build. Also, if these are asteriods, it may be worth mapping them. perhaps they link and its the bracketted numbers that we need to use for that stage.


just a thought Smile

 		Um... I think *asteroids* is a *great* idea! Laughing

I'll never get a first solve for a silver (and this is 1 of only 2), at this rate. Sad

 		Well, I only have Mega Bloks (disabled child), and I don't have 180 of them. I've been working this out on graph paper all night. I guess I'll go get some sleep now, because one of you are *sure* to get it now! Wink

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

The green legos make some sort of border I think, but the blue legos are definitely a key - like an old skeleton key... The black legos make three tall columns and the white legos trim out the blue key shape. So if you know of any key shaped pools, you'll probaly know the answer. I'll get to the Gray legos and then post the picture. I'm thinking that I won't know the answer once it's built. I hope someone here knows what it is.


Edit: added spoiler tags

I'm going off the top of my head at the moment, also because I don't have access to the perplex city map website.

But I'm sure there is a blue key somewhere on the PXC map. I could be making that up though. Could it be referring to that?

 		The answer is starring you in the face thanks one and all

I'm off now to build the thing in real lego bricks.

Cheers

Couldn't have done it without UKVer2.0 and Tufty so credit to them and one hell of a memory jogger
