BrickLink Discussion Forum

Just wanted some advice! I have someone who wants to sell me 75053 for $325 factory
sealed but a damaged box. Is that a good deal, I would resell it on my store
but I don’t have too much knowledge on that set, any advice would be greatly
Appreciated!

old sealed sets

Viewed:

Topic:

Here's a strange one....
Just acquired 2 older sets that are semi-sealed. By that I mean that due to age,
the clear, roundish lego sealing tape (on the sides) has pulled away from one
side (on both sets).
Because of this, you can actually get into the boxes, but everything inside is
sealed/new.
Also, there is a number printed on the clear lego tape...anyone know what that
number means?
Any opinions on whether the tape drying out is common on older but new sets?
thanks for anything!

Hello,

I was just looking at the value of this set and there seems to be something wrong

Question about (warped) 65803

Viewed:

196 times

Topic:

Hi gang!

So, I've been eyeballing this part :

65803 Technic, Brick 16 x 16 x 1 1/3 with Holes
Parts: Technic, Brick

For some time ...

I build a lot of Classic Space(stations) and since having moved away from baseplates
I use a combination of platelayer + bricklayer + platelayer to create my own
"baseplates" with Technic holes at the ends to make a modular setup

These 16x16 thingies, mostly used in mosaic sets, are pretty close to that so
I've bought some for testing

Since they're invisible (I will put a layer of tan plates on top so the colour
doesn't matter to me), I've bought five new ones in lavender (cheapest
colour)

But they're all very clearly warped!

All five in the same maner

Is this a known problem with this part?

Now, I haven't build anything with them yet so they may straighten out with
some weight on the top?

Cheers,

Ole

20 tooth bevel gears 32198 vs 87407

Viewed:

101 times

Topic:

I've read that the 32198 has problems when being stressed.
And the 87407 is said to be more stable.
(Probably due to the extended hub bushing)

Would you say, that one should use the 87407 over the 32198 whenever possible?
Or in other words: Unless you have space restrictions, is the 87407 flat out
the better choice?

I'm basically asking, because I'm unsure what gear I should extend my
stock on to build future models with.
I'm trying to reduce alternative items and only get the better (not necessarily
newer) version now.
Because when I re-started my LEGO "carreer", I didn't really know
what I was doing and bought a lot of old parts, where I later learned, that better
and cheaper alternatives exist.

Fabuland Hand Variants?

Viewed:

76 times

Topic:

I bought a lot on eBay that had quite a few used Fabuland figures. I haven't
delved too deeply into these since new sets are so difficult to get, but I always
liked them. Several of the figures I got have asymmetrical hands. The thumb
side is smaller than the fingers side. They have LEGO stamped inside their legs,
but I guess it is possible that their hands have been transplanted with something
fake. It doesn't seem super likely, but I don't see anything about the
variant with a quick google search. I thought it might have been a production
change over time, so I checked a couple of the ones in question against Bricklink
photos and the hands on Bricklink are not the variant.

Most boring LEGO set ever?

Viewed:

Topic:

This has to be the most boring LEGO set ever, other than you being able to spin
the wheel to release the hot coals and role your Obi-Wan figure in it to torture
him?........ The set itself is just s base plate, and for the price of 30 dollars,
this, compared to the star fighters that you can buy for the same, or similar
price is pretty lame.

And don't get me wrong, the rocky texture does look cool, but the fact that
it costs so much for so little, is pretty awful. You'll notice that a good
portion of the listings here on BL actually are missing the minifigures, because
the seller just wanted them.

Ways to label minifigs in displays

Viewed:

79 times

Topic:

Hi there. I just got a large minifig display, and I’ve managed to fill it with
182 Star Wars figs. I’d like to label each one with their name and number (and
release date, though that’s pushing it), but I haven’t found an efficient and
aesthetically pleasing way to do this. Each fig is on a 3x4 plate with 4 studs,
so one issue is space; I don’t want to cover their bodies by putting a brick
in front of them. Each shelf is 3” tall, and adding anything bulky underneath
wouldn’t allow room for weapon or accessories. The second issue is how to maybe
print the info on a tile. I don’t think there is a place where I can order 182
unique stickers to put on tiles. Printing and taping or gluing is tedious and
it doesn’t look great. Has anyone found a way to accomplish this?

Hello,

I have a question about performance.

Example: Capt. Rex phase 2

What makes this character so special? It is not difficult to get (not rare),
there are hundreds of offers on various platforms.

Apparently, it hardly sells for 100 EUR + X.

Why is this price (alleged value) then, although there seems to be hardly any
group of buyers at this price?

Supply (sufficient for EUR 100 and more) and demand (hardly/little at a price
of EUR 100 and more) regulate the price. Based on this understanding, shouldn't
the price actually fall again?

I compared some prices. Some are way cheaper, some more expensive than BL average.
Gonna be interesting future for BL sellers I guess.

Lego Set 71774

Viewed:

Topic:

Hello,
I was wondering if Lego has been running behind or not producing enough
sets lately due to the COVID supply chain issues. I'm an avid Ninjago figure
collector and I noticed that the 2022 figures have been very limited on bricklink
compared to previous years of figures. There is not one Golden Oni Lloyd figure
(njo774) in North America while a few are available in Europe. Can we expect
more supply to hit the U.S. or is this pretty much the situation with the Lego
production market at this time? What are your thoughts?

Whatever happened to part 15457?

Viewed:

131 times

Topic:

15457 Technic, Gear Worm Screw with 2 Bushes
Parts: Technic, Gear {Dark Bluish Gray}

was produced in 2014 and used in some sets. Shortly after that,
it was discontinued and the sets that had this was changed to use

4716 Technic, Gear Worm Screw, Long
Parts: Technic, Gear

instead.

I've been wondering, was there a design flaw or something that made LEGO
abandon the smaller worm gear in favor of older version that used more plastic?
Since making new mold to produce parts can be costly, some thousand dollars
or so.

New here. Wife had an old tote chock full of Lego's that I am going through
before we give them to our grandkids. There is a sealed plastic bag with brand
new Lego's in it, but nothing on the bag gives any clue as to what set it
goes to. I took a couple of pictures o the larger pieces. The pictures are taken
through the plastic so its difficult to see the whole piece, but can anyone identify
what this is or what set it goes to? The first piece is a bronze or copper color
and the other one is dark gray. TIA!

Went into the LEGO store earlier today. Bare shelves and the staff tried to compensate
by spreading out sets instead of leaving them behind one another.

Then I went on the site tonight and so much of it is out of stock or on backorder.

I guess it kinda makes sense since it's only just after the New Year but
I was hoping to have more of a selection available so that I could get the promotion
set. I could always support small businesses and order what I'm wanting on
BrickLink I guess.

Happy New Year!

So, I drove about 45 min this morning to wait in line at a LEGO store and try
and get a modular. There were 30-40 people waiting and the store had 14 sets
available. Did they dole these out carefully first-come-first served? Nope. They
'held' them behind the register and you could buy one when you got there.
Of course, there were two lines moving at different speeds. And then, some people
decided to just reach behind the counter, take a set, and then get back in line.
LEGO employees did nothing to stop this. The person in front of me got the last
available set. There were two people in line behind me holding sets they hadn't
purchased yet. Nice system LEGO. It was a painful reminder of why I stopped going
to their stores.

Also, who would risk an entire year's worth of bad karma by doing something
like that on New Year's Day? I am keeping my share of good luck and will
wait (impatiently) for my set to arrive from shop@home.

it's from a basic set either.

good Technic Set for Parts

Viewed:

Hey ho,

(first if this post is in the wrong forum please move it to the right one Iam
still a newbie ^^)

I wanted to ask which Technic sets are worth exploiting?

I would like to have engine elements such as pistons, cylinders, etc.
1 or 2 electric Lego motors would not be wrong either.

I ask for Technic SETS, i know i could also buy piston, engine stuff separately,
but i don't have a Lego collection yet, apart from a few showcases
models (which I don't want to slaughter) I want start Technic collection
or test laboratory with that.

If there is a good and cheap (I know Lego + cheap = LOL) way
to get to piston engines and at the same time a few extra Technic
Parts such as gears, rods etc. why not?

Price per set maximum in the 50€ range but would perfer 20€ - 30€ range

Thank you for the in advance

and

4168037b (Inv) Clock Set, Belville Fairy Castle
Gear: Clock: Belville

I can't find anything that says 7398. The box itself is identical to the
box of 4168037b and so it is technically possible that someone has reconstituted
it. The box shows Fairy #6. B has Fairy #4 and this one I just got has Fairy
#9 and at a glance all the pieces found in the 7398 inventory.

Can anyone fill any gaps?
