You have 3 lots in your store that are BLY you could compare it with those.
Just go to your inventory, and choose by color, then Bright light yellow or just
click

I bought one from a seller here, and when I was going to order one more, it went
out of stock with the seller. He states that he got it from a shipment from a
Legoland in Florida. Don't know how to verify it though???

The plain BLY minifig head seems to have disappeared from the DB???

I think it is currently out of stock from any seller (?)

But why is it now gone on the list of colors for this part?

For me its so much more then a toy but it was a toy as a kid playing castle and
pirates with brothers and sisters.

But after 40 plus years later its beautifull to see the creativity of minds across
the world from kids of today or designers of tomorrow

When Series 1 came out I was disappointed that they didn’t have stylized pieces

Maybe someday they would make rubber legs and arms

How many years before they discolour, harden and finally crack?

Push a bar through the centre of hinge plate, being careful not to bust a side
off. Just be slow and careful.

To Me Lego is a beautiful collection of plastic bricks. These bricks can be made
into hundreds, millions and even billions of things.

Lego can come as a set with instructions. A group of pieces to build anything.
Maybe even a character from Muppets or Looney Tunes.

I have been building Lego for years and it has helped me with everything. When
I'm down or annoyed I like to sit down at my Lego table and build away.
Some of my MOC projects can least a few weeks (Lego Minecraft Ghast MOC). And
others can only take a few days, (Lego Christmas Tree Ornaments).

I just love to sit down at the end of a long day and build something with Lego.
I love going onto YouTube and seeing some cool new Lego Set Leaks. I am hyped
everyday because I know that there will always be something cool on the Bricklink
Forums or something on The Brothers Brick.

I can't explain how much Lego has helped me over the years. And as I know
hundreds of people around me also share my love of Lego.

As the years have gone by Lego has changed so much. They have gone from basic
sets like Lego Police Patrol Car (Set #600) to beautiful masterpieces like the
Lego Vintage Typewriter (Set #21327).

I have grown up with Lego around me for the past 10 years. Even as a young kid
I played with Duplo.

I thank Lego for its HUGE role in my life and the amount of happiness it has
brought me.


What do you think Lego is? What does the plastic brick mean to you?

That is just the 3D images. They look like that from their "bent knees" and "twisted
hips".

They wont actually come out like that.

They are not.

Exactly. The word prototype is being used to make out these are parts made by
LEGO for testing and on some rare occasions manage to escape from factories,
whereas in reality they are parts illegitimately made (in some cases made to
order) for the collectors' market.

It is highly likely that they escaped a LEGO factory. Mexico, maybe? Tons of
interesting things come from bored LEGO factory employees.

These are just the stylized images aren't they? Where they bend hips, knees,
elbows, etc.

Yes, I just got some at my local Fred Meyer (Kroger) and can confirm Waldorf
is just a regular minifig torso and legs. These are easy to find with the feel
method.

40243c01 (Inv) Stairs Spiral Steps 16 with Support
Parts: Stairs {Light Bluish Gray}
as unassembled loose parts to a new buyer.
They sent me a note that they expected a set of stairs.

I simply replied -- IT'S LEGO -- You get to Build the Stairs Yourself.

These are just the stylized images aren't they? Where they bend hips, knees,
elbows, etc.

Pick a brick has become a joke since the change. Only 1227 items of 12582 in
stock, that is less than 10% of the items in stock. It had only been getting
worse since it was changed over.

It has been my experience that if you order both bestsellers and standard parts,
you will only get VIP applied properly (when they ship) on bestsellers and I've
had to call to get my points on standard parts when they arrive at my home, they
do not get applied when shipped like bestsellers.

...end of rant. Thanks for listening.

They shut down the standard parts on April 20th for an undefined reason. The
notice originally said they expected it to be back up at the beginning of May
but that has since been changed. The current message says:

"We’re sorry but we’re unable to place new orders for Pick a Brick Standard parts.
Any orders placed before April 20 will take 5-6 weeks from the time they were
placed to be delivered. We’ll update you on LEGO.com once we’ve started back
up again."

They are probably just doing some kind of maintenance or some re-evaluating of
which parts will be available from that service. On the initial transition they
started holding back new parts/colors.

-Pete

Guess which parts I bought there? New parts and colours.

At this point for me I'm willing to yield a little to these issues only because
my Wanted list is tough to fill on BL and would have to sell many Souls vs I
can get about 7/8 of my wanted list through PaB for almost half the price. Even
some of the wheel sets large wise are far better priced than the markup on BL.
At least for some of the Newer stuff. Clearly BL has the market for more rare
out of mold stuff but between the two I like my options better now having the
new system on line. Even if we are currently handcuffed.

I think for these others, you'll have to search for parts to put them together.
Here are some that might help:

For Harley Quin, search for "jester"

That sounds odd. I have a basket - still there but presumably unable to check
out - for an order I was putting together in the couple of days before they closed
Standard purchases. I was still seeing ~12k items available and in stock on PAB
at that point, probably around the 18th/19th April. This is UK, but shouldn't
be any different for Standard orders.

Yeah it has changed. I guess though you can use BL or maybe Ebay. You can buy
heaps of elements in bulk there.

Thanks, however, I can see the message, but I was tracking this phenomenon since
the first of the April and availability was steadily falling with standard parts.
There are currently 12 standard items you can still add to your cart, so the
notice is not completely true.

On April 1, there were 7163 standard parts available. Then on April 8, there
were 3451 standard parts, on the 15th there were 1779, and today after the "closure"
only 12.
