Concerning these two parts specifically in Dark Brown....

I recently acquired set 6073-1 complete in the box, and it looks barely touched
since it was opened. All the pieces are in like new condition and all the feathers
are still on the sprues and the pamphlet is even in the box. Curiously, the bows
and quivers are dark brown instead of the standard brown, or at least they appear
dark brown compared to standard brown parts I have.

While it is hardly proof that this is a possible source of these pieces in this
color, it's a pretty strong indication. I just thought some people might
find it an interesting find.

Hi All,

I have a couple of clone and stormtroopers that are yellowing; because of this
I have put away almost anything that’s predominantly white.

What’s the best way of removing this if at all possible? I know about using peroxide
and uv light or sunlight but I am concerned this will remove the print from the
minifigures.
Thank you for your time.

Jorge

This one is for the old timers.
Way back in 2005 toys’rus sold these tubs that had a box strapped to the top
with 500 pieces “free”

I have checked the inventory on Bricklink, but there were 2 different boxes and
there is only 1 inventory.

Anyway, I am looking at some 2 x 4 bricks which have been stored away in clipseal
bags for 17 years.
This is because I cannot be 100% certain of the 2 colours

I believe one might be lilac and the other possibly Lavender, but I need to be
certain

Can anyone help ?

Thanks , Slim

I downloaded my inventory from Rebrickable as a .csv file. In the color column
it starts with 0 (zero). What color is 0, please?

Hi everyone.

I recently bought Mos Eisley Cantina (75290) and noticed the Metallic Silver
lightsaber hilts, looks much different compared to other sets such as the one
from the Imperial Shuttle (75302). I have attached an image below of the two
lightsabers, supposedly in the same colour.

The one on the left is from the Cantina and looks really great, in fact it looks
pretty close to chrome silver, just not as shiny. The difference might not be
so obvious on the image, but the lightsaber hilt on the right is very "grainy"
(no it is not dust), darker and much more matte. I really like the colour from
the Cantina, but I hate the one from the shuttle, but does anyone know how to
only buy the shiny variant on bricklink, since it is listed as the same colour?

Search for Nougat Sets in the Color Guide.
Just look at 2022 sets.
You will find many sets which actually do not include any Nougat pieces ..

Nougat is not Medium Nougat.

A famous example for those beautiful nougat bricks is 71741, Ninjago Ciry Gardens.

thnx, bye bricklink is still great!

Hi,

I was sorting some pieces I from a new set, and I noticed that the 59349 trans-light
blue panel was noticeably lighter than the one from another set, which was also
new (Set 80109 vs. 60347).

I reached out to Lego, and they said that sunlight or cigarettes could cause
the color change... but these are both new sets, and I generally take care of
my pieces.

For my customers, how do I differentiate the panels that are "lighter" trans-light
blue and "darker" trans-light blue?

I feel like if I were a customer, I would not accept parts that had a mix of
the two.

Any input appreciated! Thanks!
Mike

What shade of grey are the 3 middle clips?

For comparison, the ones on the left are light grey, the ones on the right are
light bluish grey and below are dark grey and dark bluish grey.

thanks in advance.

Help!

Sorting studs thought they were all TLB but they're not. Are the ones on
the right Trans Medium Blue with the TLB on the left?
I understand its hard to tell from a photo but TMB seems to be the only fit.

Hey All,
I just found this forum tab and its awesome! I am wondering what the rarest colour
is. Like what color appears in the least amount of sets. What makes the colour
rare?
Things like that,
Thanks,

So, I am packing up my
 
Set No: 10937  Name: Arkham Asylum Breakout
* 
10937-1 (Inv) Arkham Asylum Breakout
1585 Parts, 8 Minifigures, 1 Book, 2012
Sets: Super Heroes: Batman II

and not only are the Dark Reds all brittle, but there are 2 distinct shades of
Light Bluish Gray. The wedge plate in the back is actually Light Gray. I would
worry if I sold these off-colored ones that my customers would say I shipped
the wrong color. So many pitfalls for sellers to fall into with bricks from this
era!

Some of the Reddish Gold parts from the Knights' Kingdom II sets (8796, 8791)
appear to exist as alternate in Pearl Gold. Anyone know if the swords, torsos,
shields, etc also exist in PG?

Aside from the attached photos, there is also this comparison picture:

The third new color for 2022 is arriving with the release of 75325 The Mandalorian's
N-1 Starfighter, as well as a handful of Friends sets - like Medium Brown, a
skin tone, this time used for the Mandalorian's skin tone. I believe this
is 371 Warm Tan, and looks to be somewhere between Light Nougat and Nougat, but
with a more yellow hue.

I figure Warm Tan is fine as a name, but I figured I should bring attention to
it.

Does anyone know what color the hoses are for Luke's Landspeeder? I don't
have any hoses near to that color to compare them. My guess was flat silver,
but it doesn't seem to match that color in other parts. I saw somewhere else
they were calling it Metallic Silver, but I don't know.

I have purchased a bulk buy of accessories and it seems that there are two colors
of gold for this part. It seems a clear difference in color like one is pearl
gold and the other is metallic pearl gold. Or even pearl light gold.

The part color only shows pearl gold.

There are separate numbers on them too: 11-02 and 05-02.

Thanks

Dear all,

I've built myself a color-chart with all existing 3023 plates which are (or
have been) available from Lego. I currently own 73 colors right now. One color
is a "Chrome Pink" plate. I'm happy to send over an image of it but it exactly
what it sounds: a pink, chrome, lego plate 1x2 studs.

My question is: Is it possible that Lego ever produced that on there own as I
can't find it anywhere else other than on my color-chart

Thanks for your thoughts.

Oliver

I am not an expert on Bionicles, but I understand that the feet, head, and carapace
on all six of the original Rahkshi were pearl versions of the prime Mata/Nuva
colors.

The only example I have to hand is a Rahkshi head bought as "Chrome Green", others
are on sale as "Metallic Green". It clearly does not match either the Chrome
Green "Rock 1 x 1 Crystal 5 Point", or any of the Technic Metallic Green parts.
Yet it definitely has a metallic sheen compared to normal Green. I believe that
by analogy with the Pearl White already in the catalog there should be a Pearl
Green available for Bionicle Foot Rahkshi; Bionicle Head, Rahkshi; and Bionicle
Rahkshi Back Cover with Groove
.

There may well be a case for other Pearl colors for these parts, but I am not
in possession of the items necessary to do such a diagnosis.

This is my first Post to this Forum, so if it is inappropriate, please forgive
me.

These windows come from set 4768, a set that had this part in both 'Copper'
and TLG 297 Warm Gold across two different releases. My assumption is that the
first 2005 release had this part in what we believe is Copper and that a 2006
release had these in TLG 297 Warm Gold. Sets with alternates (especially during
this year) had different colors in a second wave after a color used in the first
wave was retired, which is why I wasn't too confident that this part appeared
in TLG 139 Copper, as it wasn't removed until around 2008. I'll attach
a photo and would love to know what you guys think!

Hello,

We got some

 
Set No: 41917  Name: Magic Forest
* 
41917-1 (Inv) Magic Forest
33 Parts, 2020
Sets: Dots: Bracelet

And there is this part

 
Part No: 65092  Name: Rock 1 x 1 Jewel Octagonal
* 
65092 Rock 1 x 1 Jewel Octagonal
Parts: Rock {Satin Trans-Dark Pink}

But when sorting I noticed there are 2 clearly distinguishable colors.

Satin Trans-Dark Pink and what appears "Satin Bright Pink".

The first is the one on the right of the pictures, it has transparency and it
is darker just like Trans-Dark Pink but with the Satin. The other, the one on
the left is pink with no transparency at all.

Both have molded 65002 inside, so a change in plastic material seems not as it
usually means a change in mold...

As my "Brick 2 x 4" color collection (every different color) is complete now,
I wanted to check for other colors (of course I'm missing some trans-colors).

I saw that "Brick 1 x 1" comes in many different colors (at least more than "Brick
2 x 4").
Is there a way to find the part that comes in most different colors in the Lego
universe?

Thanks!
