True, thought the same after I've posted my message (at least the inventoried
part, I doubt that it hasn't been listed at all?).

Yes, I've had it before. Perfect shipping box but completely trashed box.
Complain and tell them you want it replaced or refunded.

Every time I received something like that from Lego, a telephone call to the
help number resulted in a return and a new set sent out. They've always
been very nice in my experience.

Could probably call LEGO, and they would probably make it right

| You probably have newer parts of the 1X1 plate with clip piece. In your picture,
the ones with the green check mark are both older versions of that part, and
since their clips are thinner, they fit into the headlight bricks better.
and
are the ones you want. They're specific variants, so generally sellers who
have them for sale really do have those versions.

Not that bad.
I think two things are happening:
1. we want to make things too perfect: little holes here and there are not that
bad!
2. “you’re holding it wrong” / going at it backward. The corner should be built
first. It should be easier to adapt the sides to an abritrary corner than trying
to build a corner on an arbitrary side.

Thanks for the response. I actually tried that, the two issues I had were 1.
The pitch in which the roof is angled and the size of the gap make it where that

I tried using a the ball and clip but again the pitch of the roof made it difficult.
Again, thank you for your response. Much appreciated!!

| I can't answer all your questions, but I believe they upload the set inventories
the moment they become available for purchase to the public.
It is so that customers who have broken/missing pieces in those sets can get
them through the customer service on the site.
When the parts will be in stock to order on B&P, I do not know. That could take
weeks, maybe even months.
And you are probably right about the bots, that makes most sense. Or else some
very dedicated fella did upload almost 1000 new parts to brickset today

If I'm remembering correctly, Lego used to list unavailable pieces as $0.00
and pieces that were actually sold out would have an actual price but be marked
as sold out... All new pieces have a price, and are marked as sold out.
Are there bots that snag these new parts as soon as they are listed? It's

They use a mixture of out of stock, sold out and missing items. There rarely
seems any logic to it.

No, but I have definite issues with older blue pieces and even some older green.
I had a Duplo green baseplate that was so brittle it practically fell apart (one
I bought from someone on bricklink). I had some supposedly new blue duplo 2x8
plates crack as they were separated from each other (one of my first bricklink
orders where I didn't want to leave negative feedback).

Reddish Brown and Dark Red were/are notorious for being unbelievably brittle.
I believe LEGO corrected this issue around 2018, so you'll find that some
of their older parts are typically more fragile. Plates from pre-2018 might as
well be a one-time use part.

You found the Achilles heel in building LEGO houses: these kinds of angles are
near impossible to build.
If you go for best looks, you might want to use
and cut up the corner tiles. Since that approach would be a no-go for many:
You could approximate the angle by covered with but you won't
end up at the exact angle due to the slopes of your roof. You would need to cover
the corners by or even some lesser known part as
You might get lucky building SNOT, with e.g.
Or you might switch to a different roof style using
