| Hi i have a list of parts which i know need to be the same color for my build.
i would like to build the same item in different colors if the parts are available
in that color.
is there a way of finding out what other colors are available for a list of parts.
i can then determine if they actually exist and can buy a batch in another color.
i know i can look at known colors for each part but this is on each individual
part page and wondered if this could be linked?

Through the wanted list functionality it is possible to get a list of shops and
prices to get an idea of availability ('show shops per item' , but it
is not so easy to bulk change the wanted color.
Studio might be more useful. It gives a price indication for each part, highlighting
parts that are not available or more expensive, and it is easy to change the
color on a group of parts.

Also, in Studio:
0. check the “Hide unvailable colors” in the colour palette (top right),
1. select all the parts you want of the same colour,
2. look in the palette: TADA! only the colours that are available for all the
parts are shown.
Now, it’s nifty but there’s still the possibility that some of the parts are
rare and expensive or that the database is wrong about the “known” colours.
So double check.
