| | help I'm looking for parts. 1 what Lego digital designer calls mini alien
pet. 2 what Lego digital designer calls shell morning star. dose anyone
have this parts or know wat set they are in. also where if anywhere I can find
them in the studio program.

In LDD, look at the Part # / Design ID in the status line. Use that as a search
term. To catch patterned or composite parts, add a star.
“MINI ALIEN PET” = 95204, a search for “95204*” gives:
“SHELL - MORNING STAR” = 54177, a search for “54177” gives:
If you want both, add them in a Wanted List and then you can search stores (

And they always seem to add it on a Friday as they are leaving for the weekend.

It’s because the ones they don’t do on a Friday as they are leaving for the weekend
are either:
1. not breaking anything because they weren’t made by sleep-deprived, eager to
leave for the weekend devs,
2. or quickly fixed because said devs hadn’t yet rushed to the nearest dive to
drown their memories of that awful spaghetti code and all the 500’s they got
the whole week.

white looks almost exactly like a perfect match for tan or slightly lighter.
It is quite weird to be expecting white parts and seeing everything look tan.
You would never know these parts were ever white by looking at them since the
color is even on all surfaces of every part. Because the set was sealed, it could
not be UV damage due to sunlight as so many sites claim, so some other chemical
process occurs. There must be some sort of breakdown of some additive in the
ABS due to storage conditions of the set (maybe higher temperatures). I don't
know what it is, but I am less than happy with my purchase now.

You read the wrong sites 
UVs don’t tan the plastic. UVs accelerate or make possible some chemical reactions
in the plastic.
Other things may accelerate the reactions. And the reactions also occur all
by themselves.
Some additives do react more easily or mode badly than others. That’s what happened
with the old bricks / old ABS.
And yes, UVs can also help “cure” the problem because it helps oxydation reactions,
which are also greatly helped by the presence of free oxygen, like when the parts
are soaking in peroxyde.
