  Over the years my knowledge of what is Lego and what is another brand (or fake
Lego as I like to call it!) has increased dramatically. But today I found another
piece that I had thrown into the "get rid of Megabloks pile" was actually Lego.

This is the piece (I remember also throwing out a dark red one away about 6 months
ago):

 
Part No: 22411  Name: Minifigure, Plume Feather Ponytail
* 
22411 Minifigure, Plume Feather Ponytail
Parts: Minifigure, Headgear Accessory

The first piece that I recall not knowing was Lego only to find out later (once
it was given away in the fake Lego pile) that it was:

 
Part No: 58176  Name: Bar with Light Bulb Cover (Bionicle Barraki Eye)
* 
58176 Bar with Light Bulb Cover (Bionicle Barraki Eye)
Parts: Bar

So I am asking others to share which pieces they can remember that they though
were not Lego. Hopefully this can help me an others not make the same mistake.

Probably someone has already made a list of these pieces already!!!


Oh yes, took some time to identify - the first ones went into the Playmobil box:

  I am posting this doctored picture here, so I can refer people to it. If anyone
has this piece in "bright pink", I would like to know if it looks like this and
if it came from set 7549.

I have this set and this box, but it isn`t Bright Pink.

Good question.

BO's Light Pink translates to Lego #17 Rose, or ParaPink and Paradisa Pink
in other parlances

This tread have made me curios how a

48794 Clikits Container, Square Box with 4 Holes - Hinged
Parts: Clikits {Light Pink}
made in 2005-2006 can be listed
with a outdated color that where discontinued 1994.



The image for "Light Pink" is just a way to dark "Bright Pink".
The main image for the set confirm this.

Someone with the know-how can ask for a fix of that.

Have a nice day.

That set is one of only two Clikits sets (out of the over 120 of them) that has
not been verified from a sealed set by either member axaday or myself. If we
ever find a sealed one, we will correct it immediately. Until that time, it is
a sad reminder that neither him nor I can find this wonderful set.

I have two used sets. Here are some pics:
The box has the same color as:
 
Part No: clikits182  Name: Clikits Container, Drawer with Hole
* 
clikits182 Clikits Container, Drawer with Hole
Parts: Clikits
[p=clikits115]
(Looking at the colors of listed clikits boxes, there`s a mess...)

Color comparison (from left to right): Bright Pink, Pink, Mx Pink Red (which
is according to Ryan very close to Light Pink), Paradisa Pink and Dark Pink.

So definitely no Light Pink ( like the Scala necklace too, which is Light Salmon).

Thank you for providing the photos!

When I said Mx Pink Red is similar to Light Pink, I meant TLG's "223 Light
Pink", which (as far as I can tell) was never actually used in sets. Not to be
confused with what BrickLink calls "Light Pink".

Forgot to mention, thanks Ryan.

  Hello all. Just wondering if Clickits are popular right now for selling. Any
thoughts? Thank you in advance.

Oh yes! Several of the Clikits colors are unique. A treasure trove for color
nerds.
