I just ordered quite a few black 1x1 bricks from bricklink, I noticed some of them do not have the word Lego on top and the edges are a little more rounded. Are these clone bricks, or did Lego use to make them differently. I bought them used; is it possible to rub the Lego insignia off so much that you can't see it at all?
The funny thing is that they are just extra pieces. They also sent me 1 black headlight brick and 1 black technic 1x1 brick extra. I let them know, although they probably won't care.
Thanks for any help.

Re: Lego 1x1 bricks question
If you could post a picture of the questioned bricks that would probably help. Lots of clone bricks do have more rounded edges than normal lego.

Re: Lego 1x1 bricks question
It is possible to wear off the Lego logo but its highly unlikely. I've only seen that once and it was on a very well-loved keychain (that happens to belong to a certain deified plum). I don't think the odds are good that these are Lego. But if they were free, you can't really complain, right?

Yeah, I have no intention of complaining, I was just wondering. Thanks for the answer.

Re: Lego 1x1 bricks question
Maybe the seller included them just for laughs and is now googling if anyone posted about it somewhere on the internet
