| Friends,
I'm colorblind (red-green) and struggle with successfully identifying some
of these colors. I had no idea there were so many variations of the color gray!
Has anyone put together a convenient brick color guide? I'd happily
buy one so that I don't order wrong.
Thanks in advance!

| Hello.
I have a huge dilemma.
Yes, I know that I can do what I like when it comes to my own LEGO, and I really
NEED to find out the best way to get 2 specific parts coloured to the colour
I need.
I've built a Harry Potter "Knight Bus" in the same manner as the Creator
"London Bus" set, and this has been 99% successful, with the exception of this
part:-
This element NEEDS to be in Dark Purple
As I'm based in the UK, I really need to find the nearest and best product
to use to get this covered in Dark Purple (paint, or even some kind of wrap/lacquer)
Other than trying to get someone to 3-D print one, I'm stuck.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,
Paul

| Hi,
I think this may be a stupid question.... however, i'm confused about how
there are X number of colours under known for a certain item, then there are
Y (often a lot more) colours on sale of that item.
For instance i'm in the process of making colour minifigures with all my
plain spare parts, and there are about 30 known colours of a plain torso, but
then about 60 colours on sale?
Thanks!

| Hello everyone!!
I have recently paid for a mock, gotten the instructions and parts list files
etc and are now slowly ordering all the parts. Today it has come to my attention
that some of the parts look like one color to me but were meant to be another...
So, the question I would like an answer too, is there a noticeable difference
in the "Bright Light Orange" color and the "Yellow" color??
I am slightly red/green color blind so there might be that but I'm not sure
and are wandering if i need to switch all the future parts i order from bright
light orange to yellow :s

| Hi
I want to understand the logic behind the color names.
Why medium lavender is not dark lavender?
Medium suppose to be lighter than the main color, isn't it?
Like medium green, medium orange, medium blue and medium brown.
The medium lavender is much darker than lavender, so the name for it should be
dark lavender.
What do you think?

| Hope this post is in the right place.
It's bugged me a while now that the Bionicle eye stalk piece that is included
in 8534, 8540 and 8572 is listed as trans dark pink despite the face that it's
more of a neon red-magenta color. As far as I know there are no other pieces
in this color, so I understand that it would probably be a waste of time to create
a new color just for one piece, but it may cause confusion for some that the
listed color is not actually the color in which the piece comes.

| I'm relatively new to selling on brick link and even less experienced with
vintage sets. I acquired a fairly complete 1984 Knight's Castle set 6073.
I was missing several light gray bricks and I purchased some on brick link. I
know that there can be variation in color between different production runs and
from year to year. Then you have the time factor, sun fading, etc. I took several
pictures of my light gray bricks and I placed a new light bluish gray brick on
top that I took from a recent star wars set. My question to the group is. Are
all these bricks light gray? Should I even bother trying to sell a set with this
kind of color variation? How much of a detraction is this from the sets value?
Thanks.

| I have in my possession part 86059 (Rein with Bridle Flexible) in dark gray -
NOT dark bluish gray. I find this curious, since the part wasn't manufactured
until 2009, long after old dark gray was phased out. I am certain it not discolored
from sun exposure, because the color is uniform on all areas of the part. And
I doubt it is just a variation in color due to its material, because it is VERY
close in color to other dark gray parts. Any ideas?
(I was going to post a picture to show the comparison, but my phone did not capture
the colors well enough to show the difference/similarity between the parts.)

| Has anyone (besides me) seen the newer LEGO knock-offs?! It's almost as if
someone defected from LEGO and took the color recipes with them!! The latest
batch I got at auction is loaded with them. I used to be able to tell the difference
just by looking at them. The colors were always just a little off, and many didn't
come in anything close to the LEGO colors. I have had to check every single piece
of this latest batch because the colors are almost identical! And pieces that
didn't come in the oh-so-close LEGO colors now do!! The colors are so close
that I've had to look at the smaller pieces under a magnifying glass to check
for the LEGO logo! It's frustrating to pay for what I think is a box of LEGO
only to find more than 3/4 are knock-offs!!
If anyone else is buying their stock at auction or at Thrift stores, check very
carefully that what you have is genuine LEGO.

How is it possible that new white parts are not really white any more?
I have part out some brand new sets (straight from the box) some months ago and
I sold some white parts. Now I get the question from the buyer that the parts
are not really white. I have stored the parts in a drawer where there is no sunlight.
How is it possible that the parts are not really white any more? is it a factory
mistake or is it the dark drawer ore what else.
Can any body help me what the problem is.

Have a look at the first picture without looking at the second you will see both

second picture the same part Plate 1x1 with the design on that side of it is

In my bin of "Arm Mechanical, Straight with Clips at 90 degrees (Vertical Grip)"
Item No. 59230, I have one that is similar to the tan ones, but obviously different.
When comparing the color to those in Bartneck's Color Guide, it appears
to be more of a "yellowish tan". Did Lego have two different tan's? Or
does tan age toward orange? Or is there another color not noted on that item?
The image doesn't really show the difference.

| Hi,
I've just had an order for 6 x 4073 Trans-Dark Pink's
When I picked them, 4 of them are visibly lighter than the other 2.
Does that mean 4 of them are actually Trans Pink, or is this just some variation
in the color?
According to the catalog, Trans Pink doesn't appear in any set, but there
are some sellers that have it listed.
I traced those 4 back to where I got them from, and it seems they came out of
(sealed) set 10717.
How (or what) should I explain this to the buyer?
Photo: Left plate, right brick and 2 middle 4073's are Trans-Dark Pink, the
4 others are lighter. I have nothing else in Trans Pink to compare this with.

| Hello Bricklinkers
I’d like to consult the oracle over a colour mystery. I have got all my LEGO
stash out to check my sets and catologue missing parts, and when I opened 6206,
which was bagged up and in the original box, and had been kept in the dark, I
noticed that some of the blue pieces (specifically 4871, some 2x1 slopes, 4x2
plates and the 4x1 tiles) are a different blue. It is more like a greeny turquoise
type colour. I’m wondering what has gone on here. There is a small chance that
at some point these might have been switched with parts from my nephew’s collection
(it’s a long story) but I have searched on part 4871 and can’t find anything
that might have contained it in a greeny colour. Could it be fading? It’s seems
too uniform and too new of a kit for that, plus they have been stored in the
dark. Can anyone shed any light on this? I enclose a photo which I hope shows
what I mean. It’s not coming out as well as it does to the naked eye.
