I am looking at the spaceship in this set and obviously it is connected to the
box that Buzz came in on Toy Story 1 and 2, but it is a spaceship here and much
larger than his box. I see other toys on Google that are also based on what
the box would look like as a spaceship, but I am not finding where Buzz was ever
depicted in a ship like that. I didn't watch Star Command, but it looks
like they fly around in big ship with the cockpit toward the back. Does someone
who watched the show know if they ever used smaller maybe fighter craft that
looked like this or is this just Lego's imagining of what the box would be?
What I am trying to establish in my mind is if this is just a secondary imagination
Toy Story set or whether it is a "Buzz Lightyear of Star Command" set.
All of the other sets that came out that year depict events in one of the movies.

Creative liberty with a fun recreation of Buzz’s retail packaging as portrayed
in Toy Story 1 and 2, would be my guess. Don't know. Though I believe LEGO
didn’t start marketing the franchise until Toy Story 2, some five years after
the sensation of the first movie. Many missed that train, or were just late in
understanding the phenomenon that Steve Job’s Pixar was creating
Has it been nearly 30 years since Pixar hit the scene with their new exciting
tech, with Toy Story?! Wow! Unlike Buzz’s paper ship, time really does fly
I remember enjoying the movie, especially Tim Allen’s lines. Beyond the tech,
I feel that the personality Tim Allen gave to Buzz, really helped the film to
hit big. Never did see any of the subsequent movies or sequels though. Maybe
I should?
"To infinity and beyond!" Which puts into context "There
seems to be no sign of intelligent life anywhere"

| Anyone else having a problem not being able to scroll down all the way on the
pop-up and see all the parts and pieces (last line).
I click on say the heads to choose, and I scroll down, but it's the last
line of heads or parts I cannot see. I try to scroll on the side to move the
whole page and the pop-up of the heads or parts disappears. I cant figure out
how to see the last line.

Our policy is that we do not accept them into the catalog. Easy peasy.

That would be a very short sighted approach since if the printing is being carried
out by Lego themselves then there should be no reason not to embrace them by
listing as a custom Item.
Any suspicious print designs can be verified checked with what is officially

around attempting to replicate designs from popular characters/themes and so
shouldn't be hard to spot anyway!

I didn't say anything about not allowing them to be sold as custom items.
I said they will not be accepted into the catalog. That is two very different
things.

The sheer number of variations for these minifigures is probably the reason they
are not included in the catalog. There are over 500,000 possible variations in
this program - before you factor in the custom labels that can be printed on
the torso.

The same way we prove or verify all parts on Bricklink are officially produced
by Lego....
WITH DIFFICULTY!
The site relies on its community to report what they consider to be suspicious/counterfeit
usually from inspection of goods upon receipt or other suspicious activities.
A handful of custom printed Torsos with basic text and/or a decal design from
a limited selection of known options to be found on the Lego site are unlikely
to be counterfeit worthy!
However eyebrows may start to be raised if a seller starts listing custom printed
torsos with the superman Logo on the front!

It will be interesting to see how often people try to add them to the catalogue,
or if any get listed under current listings especially where they have official
prints.
For example, someone could have the "apples" torso printed in green on
the front of the torso and blue on the reverse and then try to list this as a
rare misprint as the back colour is incorrect.
Or have "LEGO STORE 2012 City Name" printed on the back and claim it
is a rare giveaway, or try and replicate existing store torsos.

I have not seen anything officially but I suspect they will have to do something
like they did for the EXOFORCE tiles with serial numbers. They listed them as
a single part even though they have unique numbers and you either have to show
your own photo or list the details in the description. I don't see another
way. As cool as these custom figs can be it will be ripe with abuse and counterfeits
I think. I already see on other sites many rare official parts being reproduced
poorly using it and then sold as the official versions. TONS of rare clone trooper
torsos popping up at auction already. Part of me thinks maybe they shouldn't
list them at all because the potential for fan made things that get into copywrite
areas could also be an issue.

I see. Thanks for letting me know. I likely won’t upgrade and I’ll try to move
it elsewhere. I’m not collecting so likely won’t build enough positive feedback
to upgrade. I just don’t want to keep this piece and understand it’s quite rare

| Hi there,
I hope someone can help me. I recently bought a bulk lot of Lego parts and I
stupidly washed them before checking them out, when laying them on a drying table
I realised there was a 2838 motor in the lot. This has been through a cycle on
my washing machine and I wanted to see if I could take it apart and make sure
it’s thoroughly dry before I attach it to a power source. Is there a way this
can be done without destroying the housing.
Thanks in advance

i think you mean motor 2838c01.
I would not make it open and destroy it, also they are not really high pricing
