Random part of the day: Design Element, 3X4X2/3, No. 1

They should hide this in Disney sets, to honor the tradition of the "hidden Mickey."

You know, Walt almost built a park in St. Louis, Missouri back in the early '60's before Gussie Bush (owner of Anheuser-Bush Breweing Co. at the time) said some not so nice things about Walt not selling beer in his California park. Walt then sold the land and bought more in Florida, which eventually became Disney World.

oh boy

It comes in black. Excellent.

I doubt I will ever use it in a Blacktron MOC, but we'll see.

Get behind me, o' Accursed Mouse from the Abyss of Creative Bankruptcy!!

What do you mean that is Mickey Mouse? This is clearly the LEGO part "Design Element 3X4X2X/3, No. 1". COMPLETELY different and unreminiscent of any IP not owned by LEGO.

Interesting piece. Maybe it's meant to be used as an instrument cluster on a dash board?

Eh, I'd prefer not to have a "hidden Mickey" in any Lego set, coming from Ireland where Mickey is slang for something inappropriate.

Can we get this part with pancake printing? I'd give all the money

I own zero of these.

I still sleep well at night.

I would genuinely like to know because I have a couple of these pieces and they are currently useless to me."
