According to LEGO, they are Flat Silver:

And they wouldn't match other parts in ABS due to the material used to make

Thanks!
I've been wondering, and please don't take this as any kind of criticism
of how our catalog is being run, but why aren't sets inventoried here faster?
Are we still depending on users to inventory the sets? With Lego owning Bricklink,
I thought the inventory lists would be updated almost at release, either by
Lego supplying a part list, or supplying actual sets for verification.

Hi Jed!
No offense taken. These are just some of the reasons why inventories here have
to be done by individuals:
- LEGO does not include sticker sheets in their data.
- LEGO does not include defined minifigure assemblies in their data.
- LEGO does not include information about extra parts in their data.
- LEGO does not care about what part variants are really in the set.
- LEGO does not name or categorize new parts how BrickLink does.
- LEGO does not name new patterned parts in any way.
And there are more.
BrickLink prides itself on having the most accurate inventories possible, and
that will always include actual users doing inventories. There are some things
we are trying to do behind the scenes to speed up the process, but those are
in the works.
Cheers,
Randy

The skis with numbers 28922 and 18744 are 1mm longer in length than mold number
90509, 48mm to 47mm, respectively. Although the three have their studs in the
same location from the rear of the ski, the hand ridges are slightly higher up

I will consider a split of this part into 90509 and 18744/28922.

In this image the cone looks more Medium Orange, which makes you think the fence

In that listing, the cone definitely looks orange and the fence looks yellow.
|
This set may have been updated from earlier colors (medium orange cone and bright
light orange fence) to later colors (orange and yellow) if it was produced for
a couple of years.
|
That is highly unlikely. Bright Light Orange replaced Medium Orange and there’s
no evidence that this cone ever appeared in the older color. The mold was first
used in 2004, which is after the color change. These parts are definitely just
current colors.
|
If current colors, then I would highly expect a yellow fence and nothing else.
|
Also if that fence is the same material as this part:
Then indeed could be yellow but a bit darker that seems Bright Light Orange,
the tone happens in a few other similar material parts.
|
That's exactly what I was thinking, Sergio. That's why I just ordered
a sealed one of these to be here in a week or so. Then we'll see for sure.

I think 58234 should be added as an alternate part number to all three of the

rectification:

4278077 is for part 48495 in Cool Silver. That colour is not part of the current
catalog and should be conflated with Pearl Light Gray.
So yes, there are two colours and two PCC, but in BrickLink they are both Pearl
Light Gray.

If we keep making exceptions when two silver colours are known in the catalog,
then we will never be able to untangle this mess. If we do move the part, the
mess can be limited to Pearl Light Gray only.

The Pearl Light Gray and Flat Silver project is huge. It will take lots of time
and planning, so don't expect it to happen overnight.

This and 4345 are incredibly difficult to come by. I hope that the latter contains
parts in TLG 137 Medium Orange, but I wouldn’t be surprised if they were just
Orange. However, the fact that four of these sets have parts in ‘Medium’ colors
is a good sign. Are these cards softer than typical ABS parts?
|
As far as I can tell, the cards are ABS.

I would like to make a formal apology to you and everyone else for not thinking
all of the consequences through for these changes. Although I am an experienced
contributor and admin, I am human and not perfect. I make mistakes. Most of the
parts on sprue will not affect hardly anything or cause a stir, but this part
is different and special because it is so ubiquitous. As others have seen, this
one part has had the changes reverted, and I take full responsibility for the
blame. I am currently taking my floggings and licking my wounds, and I hope there
are no hard feelings had by all.
Thanks,
Randy

I have the first one. In fact, that is my image for it. It is a white cloth
with printing on one side of it, so white is the base color. Therefore, the color
for it is correct.
Are you sure that white is the base color for the other one?

Hi Randy,
I'm not sure, but I hope to be soon.
I messaged two sellers, one of them has both.
I'm curious if TLG switched colors when using the same printing.
Please hold it open.
Thanks,
Diana

Seems its the same cloth just that got sewed the green threads.
|
It seems to be, but I want to be sure before switching the color. I need to see
an image of the other side of the rug.
|
I didn't ask for an image, but both sellers I asked confirm that the back
is white.
Seller who has both:
"i can confirm that both parts have a white back. so i think they are made of
the same cloth."
|
Thank you, Diana, for the investigative work needed.
This request has been completed. You can now update the inventory that contains
the rug.

I requesting adding these as alternates because the IDs in the notes are not
searchable, at least not that I know within BL, so if any of this parts appears
a user could find it with the *.
Part 47154 seems a great example, detailed info but also all IDs as alternates

Can you confirm that there are no other differences? For example the main support

If its only the underside of the top plate with any differences I think its sufficient
to add a note to the catalog entry and your image for reference. Neither set
these are used in relies on the different design during the build.

Sorry for letting you wait so long. I had to find this item again - and now I
was successful. So, there is no other difference than the one we discussed here.
The support beam has the same size and shape, also the cross supports inside
the support beam are the same size / place.

This part will be split then as they are functionally different in regards to
building possibilities. Thanks for the information.

Andrew (Broxy's Bricks)

The reason it was updated was because all sprued parts were updated.
All sprued parts were rid of their assembly constants for a few reasons: (1)
to actually make the part connections between LEGO data and BrickLink data more
in sync; (2) to make them easier to find when searching from other sources; (3)
they are not true assemblies (they are actually one molded part and not an assembly
of parts which are *built* from other base parts); and (4) to sync up with how
multipacks and plastic sheets are handled and/or will be handled in the catalog
(which is by just the design number and no assembly constants).
For example,
etc.
All of these had assembly constants, but now they don't. However, all of
the subparts of these sprued parts have for a very long time gone by subpart
numbers ending in 'a', and 4073 was a lone holdout for a very long time
because it was the most forward facing part. Now it has finally been standardized
with all of the other sprued parts.
Also, if you look at a larger sprue or a multipack, you will see the subparts
of those entries use letter suffixes:
or
I know that the change to this one part is the most obvious, but there is a lot
to be gained by standardizing all sprued parts with each other and with how other
things are handled in the catalog. It will take a little time to get used to,
but it will not take long before it is part of everyone's knowledge.
I hope that this message goes a ways towards explaining the rationale. Please
let me know if you have any other questions.
Cheers,
Randy

It is from years later and perhaps is another TLG color, but it is copper color.
I'm not sure it would be worth getting a new color.

It is a painted copper coating similar to Metallic Silver or Metallic Gold.
I would like to see this added as Metallic Copper to the BrickLink colors.

If (only) an extra skirt was added, this doesn't make an extra complete minifig.
I also think this is a packing error?! Never saw extra skirts, unless it's

I have got some cheap second hand sets from a seller. I got the Lego Tower of

Some of the 16 tooth peices have gathered almost half a centimetre of dust. Others

I have also tried swabbing them with cotton balls.
I really need a way to remove the layers of dust. Anything help will be much

Use a soft bristled toothbrush that has _all_ bristles in a slightly warm, soapy
bath. There is no need to scrub hard. Just be gentle and the dust should come
off quickly. Then leave the parts to air dry. That should easily do the trick.

We removed the catalog image because it was a render and catalog entries having

Hi Jen,
Great you found it. Are you sure you want to open it?
If both the king and purple knight have indeed the same color sword (hard to
tell by the set image), looking at the comparison image I would say it's
reddish gold.
Imo you have
- 1 black
- 1 flat dark gold
- 1 metal blue
- 2 reddish gold
- 1 pearl light gray (pre 2010 silver)
But let's see what our color experts have to say.
