| | Hello,
So I am well aware of the "sun burnt" effect on white, blues, yellows, the old
light grays and among other colors, however I am sorting through quite a bit
of used Lego with the old light grays and I pulled quite a bit of them out believing
they were discolored by the sun. Upon closer inspection, they appear to be quite
uniform in their color, including underneath, just definitely a different shade
than the others and not quite like the "sun burnt" ones. Does anyone else out
there recall issues with Lego having off color batches on old light grays in
the past like they have trouble with now on the new light bluish grays and yellows?
Thanks in advance for everyone's time.
Sincerely,
Ken

| I missed that bit about the catalogue, hopefully there is some reference number
on it of some sort.
If we find more info in the future the number could be altered or confirmed.

Sadly the custom option is not a great one as people won't see it there unless
they check as thoroughly as I do from time to time.

He wants to add it to the catalog, so it won't have to be listed as a custom
item.

| Neither the red or white are listed as known colours for 31b, I assume it's
because no set has been identified with these included.
Both are already for sale.
In Catalog, Doodlebug writes:
| | I was identifying an assortment of Red windows and noticed an omission. If I
look at the screen depicting all windows available in Red, 31b is not there.
I had to open the screen for 31bc01 to see there was an item with the number
31b. Why is it not there if you have 31, 31a, 31ac01, & 31bc01?

The Hardcover however is normally the more expensive.

If you read the text at the bottom of the current catalog image, it says "NOT

That makes me think that the current catalog image is a prototype image and not
the actual book cover that made it to publishing.
Cheers,

That could be it, but where does the different number come from? Is that also
related to a prototype?

| Does anyone know if they are readily available anywhere/everywhere ?
I have the chance to buy others but that may not be possible after tomorrow.
The bricks don't seem to be listed yet.

Is there much of an interest in the book and brick as they had a few more ?
