Hi everybody
I want to enter this part Window 1 x 4 x 5 with Hollow Studs Item No: 2493b
in my collection but the color I have does not exist. My part is black. I don't
know which set it comes from but I saw on https://rebrickable.com/home/ that
there are at least 9 sets in which it takes place in black. How can I do ?
Thanks.

1. Why Sienna is between Tan & Light Nougat and not between Dark Nougat & Fabuland
Brown?
2. Why Satin Trans-Yellow is not located between Satin Trans-Brown & Satin Trans-Bright
Green?
It's not that important, just a little bit annoying.

Official Lego color name confusion. What colors do silver ink, and silver metallic,
correspond to in bricklink colors?

Seriously? Light trans-black would have been a more appropriate identifier as
there is a noticeable difference, however there is nothing brown about this color
that we are now calling trans-brown.

Hi!

I am having a small issue with a customer who claims te have recieved parts with
sun damage

He sent me pictures of what i believe are his own arches (or maybe other arches
out of the same order: i do not know) and the different "sun damaged"
parts picked out of the different lots/items

Since all parts have the same color on the inside and outside i suspect color
variations/inconsistencies from a parted out set (7094)

Trying to resolve the issue with the customer but i am wondering how yall are
handling this, also with the sand green, dark red, pearl gold and other color
inconsistencies, since it also seems to happen in modern new sets

Do you still opload the part?
Do you place a note on seperated lot?
Or ditch the parts in a bulk bin?

Thanks in advance!!!

New thread, new title etc etc

I've more or less reworked the data I had with the new, accurate silver
classifications, which is lovely! I'm liaising with hereforbricks614 to try
and tick off as many Bionicle-specific 296 parts as we can. 2006 is still our
dodgy year, with 131 v1, 131 v2, and 296 all being used. I'm a little concerned
that 2005 might be a potential source of 296 too, but have written off 2007 (blame
some very, very dodgy 131 v2 Jaller swords for that). Te only real challenge
left is to detangle the aforementioned dodgy 131 v2s, and true 296 pieces I've
managed to confirm a bunch of the potential parts already, but more rechecks
are required before I bring that data to BrickLink proper for potential catalogue
inclusion. I'll keep picking at it as I find time between work and other
dumb Bionicle-centric side projects.

Unfortunately, 296 isn't our only bugbear. I've had 2 confirmed sightings
of this weird dude: a 131 v1 Mahri shoulder piece. This image was provided by
a mate, I don't have this piece myself. This piece was introduced in 2007,
and in theory shouldn't exist. In both reported cases, a single one of these
was pulled from a bulk lot, with no accurate indication of what set contained
it. Even more strange: there are no sets that only use 1...

If anyone has any insight as to where this weirdo snuck in, I'd love to hear
it. I'd also love to hear from anyone who has owned the 2005 Bionicle system
playsets from NIB, particularly if said sets contained a Pearl Gold Kraahkan/Pearl
Gold Visorak body. There's a slim chance they might have used 296 as their
silver, going on other contemporary uses, and I'd love to be able to write
them all off conclusively.

Thoughts?

I recently bought a few different colours for the kids to play with, but in their
haste they opened all the bags and sorted them into containers before I could
label them. Most of the colours seem straight forward but there are some I have
difficulty distinguishing between. Is there an app that I can check each colour
individually, or would someone be able to identify each of the colours for me?
Can provide better photos if needed.

Is it possible to find a horse in a different color besides the three that are
offered? I'm doing a MOC design but need a horse in purple, red and yellow.
Not sure if its even possible to do without painting them myself.

No image because the BrickLink image compression muted it to a Dark Orange
It's slightly neon in person!

https://www.flickr.com/photos/126975831@N07/53430541480

What will BrickLink call it? I've heard it called both "Reddish Orange"
and "Vibrant Orange" from Lego...

In reference to this "Colors - Additional Notes" help page: https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=1096&q=color

Isn't the note on medium violet outdated, as of the addition of Lilac?

The note on rust is also outdated. We know well by now that the "rust"
parts of 1979 - 1992, and those of 2004-2005, are intentional colors, being [TLG
13 - Red Orange] and [TLG 216 - Rust] respectively, and that the 1997- 2000 "Rust"
is just bad red [TLG 21 - Bright Red]. There's really no ambiguity to be
had there.

64847 cattle horn short in dark tan. Does anyone have any idea where the dark
tan part appears as it is not in any figures or sets on BL, I have two and there
are two other sellers with one listed in dark tan.

I received this sword and it is clearly Pearl Dark Gray in color, have been looking

this sword in Pearl Dark Gray, so where did it come from?

Hi

I recently sold a silver chrome 3001 which the buyer is not happy with saying
its an anniversary edition. Does anyone know of any specific variants?
I naively thought a silver chrome 3001 was a silver chrome 3001.
Cheers

Hi,
I'm going through some old Lego Star Wars Lego sets.
At the moment I'm looking at 10188 Death Star.
I didn't even open all the boxes on this set and all parts or original.
See the 2 x images below:
The image on the left is slightly less 'blueish' then the one on the
right.
Flipped over (the less blueish one is now on the right), the underside is a lot
more glossy where as the (IMO) true light blueish grey is a more matt finish
on the underside.
There are about 8 of each in this set and all of the left have one shade, all
of the other have the slightly different shade.
I think I'm seeing this in other Star Wars sets from around the same too
where the greys are ever so slightly different.
Why is this? Have I somehow mixed pieces up - which would be difficult seeing
as I don't have those lager grey pieces anywhere else?
Appreciate some advice!

Hi!

I collect all kinds of bricks and parts, and the goal of my collection is to
have 1 of every colour of every type of brick/part/element. So for example, 1
of every colour of part 3021. But the problem I keep coming across is that when
I go on a catalog page for a part, often there are many more colour variants
for sale than there are colours that are known. For example, going back to part
3021, I know for a fact that there is a pearl light grey colour variant because
I own one, and yet it is not listed as a known colour. Other people are also
selling part 3021 in pearl light grey so I don't know why it isn't a
known colour.

Can someone please explain to me why there is very frequently a difference between
the colours for sale and the known colours? I appreciate that occasionally a
seller might misidentify a colour (e.g. sell it as Medium Nougat when it is actually
Nougat), and that even less occasionally there might be some fakes entering circulation
on the market, but surely this doesn't account for the many catalog items
lacking known colours when they are for sale? It is making it very difficult
as a collector to know if I should purchase colours that are for sale but are
not "known" in case they are not genuine or are mislabelled.

All opinions appreciated.

Many thanks,
Lucas

Hello! I was wondering if the same colour shades for bricks get changed over
the years. For example, would a black or dark bluish grey brick today be the
exact same shade the same brick had 20 years ago or more? I know there are different
types of shades for colours like blue or grey, but a brick listed as being dark
bluish grey today and one listed as being dark bluish grey in the 90s or 2000s
are the exact same brick, right?

The red variant of https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=2546p02#T=S&C=6&O={%22color%22:%226%22,%22iconly%22:0}
does not exist. It is not part of a set and has no images. Its existence is just
a result of people disagreeing whether the green or the red part of the parrot
is the base color. Therefore, the red version should be removed from the catalog.

Earlier today someone ordered a pair of violet hips and legs. Without paying
much attention, I reached into the appropriate drawer and pulled one out. In
the picture, the hips & legs on the right are correct violet. The hips on the
left are violet, but the legs are some weird color that looks approximately like
slate gray. As these are the spring loaded hips & legs, they all came out of
the 2003 NBA collectors sets, which means they are all now ~20 years old.

Is this Transparent Neon Orange? This color was retired(?) at the end of 2021,
but the official renders for this part sure look like they use this color. Rebrickable
has the following note: “Bricklink and Brickowl inventory this as Trans-Orange
even though the part is Trans-Neon Orange.”

Two of these renders come directly from LEGO. This part is probably 47 marbled
with Transparent Brown. Most parts in this color appear slightly redder than
Transparent Orange parts in LEGO renders. The second render is an outline render.
That orange color is too red to be Transparent Orange.

The other photo is from a BrickOwl user. The part definitely looks like 47 here.

This part is included in the newest Harry Potter Gringotts Wizarding Bank set,
which would make this color current again.

I have a 30051 instruction booklet with a blue background like set 30052 instead
of the red and white version shown in the stock photo.
Is it an error? Or a rare version of the set like a "blue box" version?

Does anyone have experience dealing with old Dark Red from 2001-2008? Is it brittle?
I’ve only had four modern Dark Red parts break, but I don’t own enough old Dark
Red to know if that color is as brittle.

Hallo everybody,
can someone tell me if both Grievous capes are original or one is fake? Maybe
someone still has the originals in stock or knows, as with some other things,
that there were different productions. The right one also feels more like plastic
on the print side and not like a classic 522.
Thanks and best regards, Michael

I have other parts in these two colors and, to be honest, I can not tell which

How do I determine which color this part is? I am leaning towards PLG since the
only set that is on BL shows it in that color. Thanks for any insight.

Hi

Pearl Light Gold is the perfect color I'd like for some tiles. Unfortunately
it doesn't exist anymore.
I found brick yellow, which is pretty good. Maybe a bit light though.

Is there anything better?

Thanks

Hi all,

Two questions stemming from an error in Studio concerning these parts:

 
Part No: 3846px2  Name: Minifigure, Shield Triangular  with Red and Peach Quarters Pattern, Style 1
* 
3846px2 Minifigure, Shield Triangular with Red and Peach Quarters Pattern, Style 1
Parts: Minifigure, Shield
 
Part No: 3846px21  Name: Minifigure, Shield Triangular  with Red and Peach Quarters Pattern, Style 2

3846px21 Minifigure, Shield Triangular with Red and Peach Quarters Pattern, Style 2

Part No: 3846px3  Name: Minifigure, Shield Triangular  with Red/Maroon Quarters Pattern
* 
3846px3 Minifigure, Shield Triangular with Red/Maroon Quarters Pattern
Parts: Minifigure, Shield

1. Are px2 and px21 using the same “Peach” colour?  px2 seems more Yellow / Bright
Light Orange than Nougat.

2. Shouldn’t “Maroon” be “Dark Red” and “Peach” be “Nougat” (as used by LDraw)? 
(IOW, shouldn’t descriptions use “real” colours?)

Hey all,
a quick question, my apologies if it was answered already: I noticed the amount
of speckle in my
 
Part No: x1533  Name: Minifigure, Headgear Helmet Viking with Side Holes
* 
x1533 Minifigure, Headgear Helmet Viking with Side Holes
Parts: Minifigure, Headgear
is pretty irregular - several of them have barely any. Is the speckle painted
on, is it possible that it was rubbed off? Or is it in the plastic and just bad
luck if it looks basically black?
Thanks,
Patrick

Does anyone own any early copies of sets from the Kingdoms subtheme? I’m putting
some of mine back together and I can’t tell whether most of my helmets and swords
are new or old PDG. Does anyone have any helpful comparison photos? I’ve only
been able to confirm some horse armor pieces, but this color displays a ton of
variation, so they don’t match other parts very well.

Is the left spear the older color? It’s slightly greener.

Hi,

I just wanted to discuss this a bit. As a lot of us know, the Piraka and all
the other 2006 Bionicle figures were given "Pearl Light Gray" armor.
It was the new colour at the time. But, according to Bricklink's inventory,
The Toa Nuva armor (as well the Toa Metru weapons) are "Pearl Light Grey!"

Pearl Light Grey was undoubtably the 2006 armor colour, so why is this appearing
in the earlier years? And what makes this infuriating is seeing the hundreds
of "Pearl Light Gray" Nuva pieces being sold by unsuspecting sellers,
especially if you're after a particular variant -- it makes hunting it
a pain and a gamble.

Can this change?

Hi,

I noticed such a nuance with the details of the 3070b. The details of the 3070b
Trans-Clear were taken out by me from the set 42099 (it was a long time ago).
They are a little cloudy and glow under ultraviolet light. 35403 glows 30039
simple.
On BL there is only a Trans-Clear color. Has anyone come across such details?

Over the years I have seen what I would call a lighter ( inferior, dull colour
version ) of Trans-Light Blue.

Is this just like what we experience with Pearl Gold and is normal or maybe
a pretty good fake. I am only seeing this with small parts like
Part ID: 22388 , 3023. I am still seeing the Lego logo on 3023.

Appreciate your time in advance.

Recently Lego released new color trans black, and old trans black changed to
trans brown, but brown is not the correct color, why not trans dark grey? It's
a lighter version of black, and "light black" is "grey", isn't
not?

Are these hats printed on top of the hair, or dual molded? I'm guessing dual
molded but I don't have one in hand.

I'd like to make my part out process faster. Is there a way to see the total
lot counts of each color in a given set? That way I'd know which colors will
take the most space and time during the sorting process.

Has anyone noticed a color variation for the part 970c120pb01? The part is used
for Eomer and King Theoden's legs in The Lord of the Rings sets.
I purchased four parts recently, and three of them have a light brown belt and
dark red fabric flowing from it. The picture on Bricklink shows exactly this.
However, the fourth one I purchased has a brighter red fabric and the belt is
the same red color.
I know that printed colors can vary a decent bit, but was surprised that the
belt is actually a different color. Just curious if anyone else has noticed
this or had anything to weigh in on.
In the images attached, the redder one is on the right.

LEGO has been adding more unique colors in recent years, something I’m sure many
of us welcome. After all, who doesn’t like more shades of red and yellow?

Whether it be something as exotic as Sand Red, as basic as Blue, or fun like
Transparent Orange with Glitter, feel free to share your opinion!

Personally, you can never go wrong with Sky Blue.

Part 54821pb05 Bright Green Bionicle Zamor Sphere (Ball) with Marbled Trans-Bright
Green Pattern

This part (Known Colors) lists only Trans-Bright Green. But in another column
it lists Dark Azure.
I have a quantity of 3 of the above mentioned part in Dark Azure. They are identical
to the picture of the Trans-Bright Green. There is a hole at the top, it's
hard to see on this picture. I do not have a Trans-Bright Green in hand to compare.

Can anyone tell me if Dark Azure does exist?

Does anyone have a spare 1x2 plate in Sky Blue?
This part rarely pops up for sale and it's almost always Medium Azure instead
of Sky Blue, It came as an alternate part in 5961 Snow Queen, so it's rather
uncommon.

I've asked all the 5961 sellers already and have been keeping my eye on the
part for a year now with no luck, so if anyone has this part, or the set in the
Sky Blue varient, please let me know!

Which puts BrickLink in a situation, since we already call 111 Transparent Brown
"Trans-Black" here It's Medium Brown all over again.

I’m going through some of my personal stuff from the 80’s and 90’s and am having
a hard time telling the color of this baseplate on the left. For reference the
one on the right is light blue grey. Is this light grey or yellowed LBG? Color
is very consistent on front and back and side to side.

I’m assuming the parts pictured are Pearl gold and Reddish gold (I’ve never heard
of the latter until today)
The picture makes the difference more visible than when I’m looking at the parts
Part number is 50616
Going through my much hated and avoided box of bionicle and other stuff, beginning
to wish I’d ignored it for another 15 years!
Thanx for any help

I have just added lots of 'Pearl Light Grey' parts that are only in sets
as 'PLG' (eg.44031) they look more silver to me than part 57556 which
is lighter and looks more 'pearly' also only in 11 sets as 'PLG'
so which is 'PLG' and which is 'Flat Silver' as both parts are
only available as 'PLG'

Hello,
I'm adding my collection to bricklink and I stumble in full speed into a
wall.
I have 2 little pretty bright pink flowers 93080g. When looking in the bricklink
archive itself you get the nice bright pink flowers in the first picture you
see.
But when I try to add them to my collection I can only choose between Dark Purple
or Medium Azure. As if the 2 little bright pink flowers I have in my hand don't
exist. But I see the picture in bright pink here on bricklink.
And what is more weird is that, when I type 93080g into my "add to collection",
I get that picture that is here on the bricklink archive. But when I need to
choose a color I can't choose bright pink, or any pink at all. I tried leaving
the color as is (as in not choosing any colour) but that won't be accepted.
I'm being forced to choose a wrong color.
I invite everybody to try it. You will get the same results, I tried often enough.
Any ideas how to solve this?

Hey all! I have a question that irks me from time to time. I know I can click
the "hide unavailable parts", but when I have the perfect fitting part
and need to find a color that is available, it takes forever. Right now, when
I have a part that fits, I have to go from color to color to color to color.......
I would love to see "here are the colors available in the part" instead
of "here are the parts that are available in the color". Hope this makes
sense

many cheers and much love brickies,
Holly

Thanks as always to this community and the help provided!

So, we have been parting out random sealed bags of LEGO. I've managed to
get my hands on some older Light Gray and Dark Gray, that were from older sets
2003. I was parting one this eve from a friend's set from 2012, #3315. The
set has Light Bluish Gray in it. However, some of the 2x2 plate and 1x2 tile
were clearly different from the LBG. So, I pulled a piece from the older Light
Gray, it a shade different but closer to LG than LBG. Would this have been possible
during that year?


2x6 is LG
Left 2x2 is the LBG and the Right 2x2 from same set as one on left.

I have two 1x1 clips with the thin o-clip that are a very weird colour. It isn’t
sun bleached. Anyone seen this before?

I have included some regular light gray pieces and a dark gray plate for reference.
Any recommendations on how to list these pieces?

Thanks.

A friend of mine's 8796 King Matthias set came with parts 50602, 50616, and
50629 in Pearl Gold. However, I'm not sure if 50623, 53346, and 53347 also
came in Pearl Gold, or if set 8791 did too. In any case, there seems to be a
similar case to the Pearl Gold Kraahkan or Visorak carapaces in the BIONICLE
playsets. Though the lighting in the images is not ideal, these are indeed PG;
they can be seen compared to other PG parts here: https://www.reddit.com/r/bioniclelego/comments/foe1me/zayna_toa_of_psionics/

The reason I bring this up is of course to see them added as alternates, but
first, this definitely needs more research, because as I said, I don't know
if the other three gold parts in the set were PG too... :/ Potentially if we
could find PCC, that would help?

Hello,

I can't seem to find a color for one of my
 
Part No: 48495  Name: Minifigure, Weapon Sword, Greatsword Angular
* 
48495 Minifigure, Weapon Sword, Greatsword Angular
Parts: Minifigure, Weapon {Pearl Gold}
I know there has been a lenghty discussion about it a while ago but I didn't
see that color in there.

On the pic, there are:
- top: Flat Dark Gold
- left: Metallic Gold (or a variation of Reddish / Pearl Gold... but then why
is Metallic Gold a known color for this part?) from set 7018
- middle: reddish gold
- and right? This is Jayko's sword in the Castle of Morcia. Is that another
variation?

Thanks,
Alexandre

I'm browsing parts today and all of a sudden all pieces that were always
Flat Silver now are Pearl Light Grey. Those are two different colours, just like
Flat Gold and Pearl Gold.
If you hold two same pieces one from 2004 and one from 2008 they have clearly
distinct tints to them, especially in Bionicle. And in the transition years ~2006
some sets actually had both variants making them desirable by collectors.

Most on here are aware of the 'confusion/difficulty' with separating/identifying
the colors below:

1. Light Gray vs. Light Bluish Gray
2. Dark Gray vs. Dark Bluish Gray

However, few more colors pose similar challenges

3. Dark Green vs. Black
4. Light Orange vs. Yellow

Yes, like most men (statistically), it is not easy for me to distinguish some
specific colors. Hence the question: Is there a way (special light) for one to
easily separate/sort parts with similar colors?

For example, to separate TransOrange from TransNeonOrange, I got myself a black
light bulb, and voila, works like a charm. Some colors are easy to single out
under bright sun, but it's the middle of winter here are we got few more
months before the sun is not shy anymore.

Hi Bricklinkers,

Merry Christmas to you .

I am planning on my LEGO goals in 2023 and would be happy to enlarge my droid
army, if possible.

But is there a new color coming for the torso 30375? Which means I could enlarge
the droid army by another colored droids.
Has anyone seen any previews of new sets where a torso can be seen?

Hope you can help me out and greets
Farid

Looks pearl-like in light gray but these parts do not come in any known sets.
I found 8 of the 1x2 bricks in this color. Placed them on a bley 2x8 plate for
color guide

Bought a small mixed lot from Goodwill that has mostly Friends parts. If these
8 do not come in any sets, where did they come from?

Hello. I have (2) part 4175 in a solid cream color. They both are uniform in
coloring, have the Lego logo, and are more of a lighter weight plastic. They
came from a large 4 pound lot of various vintage parts to modern parts. They
don't look yellowed to me compared to a white paper plate. Is this a undocumented
color in the part by Lego?

Also I have a darker variation light gray air tanks which are pretty cool.

I have exhausted almost all stocks of 2x2 bricks in Dark Azure...
...but EVERY time, these bricks were in Medium Azure !
EVERYTIME !!

What a frustration

Explaining to sellers that their bricks are clearly Medium Azure and not Dark
Azure, receiving a refund for a few cents...
I am ok for a refund for the part, but after ten times placing orders almost
exclusively for 1 or 2 bricks of this color, I paid shipping fees for all these
orders !

I am really Disappointed

If the brick appears once again, I will ask the seller ARE YOU SURE IT'S
DARK AZURE ???!

Hello everyone,
I was wondering what the best shade of blue is best to use instead of Maersk
Blue. Has anyone done this and how did it work for you? Thanks

Just saw this among the newly added catalog items:
 
Book No: b21hol01  Name: Build Easter Fun! (Softcover)
* 
b21hol01 Build Easter Fun! (Softcover)
Books: Activity Book: Holiday & Event: Easter

Could anyone confirm what the color is of that 2x4 brick?
Looks like a pearly blue to me but that could be due to lighting of course or
an effect of the plastic bubble as the orange brick also seem to have a pearly
glance to them.

So, wishful thinking of an avid 2x4 collector or for real a new color?

We just came accross a strange colored part. It's not opaque, nor is it trans-black,
it's more of a milky trans-black but such a color doesn't appear to exist.

Anyone know what color this should be? The copyright year on it is 2008 if that
helps any...

On the photo I put a dark bluish gray, light bluish gray and black part around
it to help gauge the color.

Hi,
I trying to buy Trans Neon Yellow 1x1 plates but all the sellers I tried to order
from this part didn't list it correctly.
I submitted 4 (!) orders from different stores and all them has been cancelled
by the sellers.
I wonder now if this plate exist in trans neon yellow although I'm almost
convinced I had one before and sold it in my BL store.
If someone here have this part in trans neon yellow I would be happy to buy it!
Please help!
Yoav

Hi. I am parting out a set which can contain both Light bluish gray or Light
gray pieces, but I am unfamiliar with Light Gray pieces. Is there an easy way
to distinguish the two colours?

Not sure how to put in a request for a change. I have been ordering bulk Pearl
Gold pieces. They seem to come in 2 different versions. One is the flat gold
I expect. The other is more of a non shiny metallic look that is a darker gold.
I'm new to the site when it comes to submitting possible changes. I uploaded
a pic and the difference is significant. This has also happened with othe pearl
gold pieces. I don't know if it needs a sub number or what. I ordered 88
and 8 look completely different. Thanks.

I still can’t tell the Pearl Dark Grays apart. The unidentified parts are all
from 2010/11.

The left and right arms are old Pearl Dark Gray. (2007)
The armor piece and liftarm are also old Pearl Dark Gray. (2008 and 2005)

What is the middle arm? It doesn’t match any other color I have and glows under
a UV light. It came from 8077 back in 2010.
What is the crossbow?
What is the helmet piece?

The flat end spear is new Pearl Dark Gray.
What is the round end spear?
What is the halberd?

There seems to be a new light bluish type grey, perhaps a new color addition
is in order?

Having trouble identifying some shades. Thought I had pearl light grey but
looks closer to pearl dark grey and then the one on the far right looks to be
pearl black, which doesn't exist apparently. Also not sure if top dots are
metallic or flat silver. I know the piece on the very top is Pearl Light Grey
as it only comes in a few colours. Trying to make a physical piece chart.

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
