The right minifig head appears to be before her shift, the left minifig head
looks like after her shift!

| I'd also like to add that I do NOT fault the seller here!
It was an experiment, I can handle a 10EUR loss
However the seller offered me a refund. I declined. I then got a coupon
Which is like a thumbs up for me to blow more money on LEGO even if the wife
says noooooo
So, I can very much recommend Brickmatey as a great new, fair and reliable seller

| | Hi gang!
So, I've been eyeballing this part :
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

Hmm, looks like I should try to buy some black ones then
That was my plan anyway, as just knowing an obnoxious colour sitting deep inside
my MOCs, makes my hair turn grey
I'm not sure if these mosaic sets are popular for parting out, but I hope
that part in black drops below a dollar/euro in the future as I would need several
hundreds
Thanx for the replies guys and gals!

I recommend doing the same.

So, I've been eyeballing this part :
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,

I have seen a lot of the black ones, and I have never seen any sign of warping
in any regards. Maybe it is an issue with the lavender ones?

I mean, if you are still interested in lego maybe a store would be willing to
do a trade through Bricklink, but since you do not have a store you could not
sell it here. I would say expect $50-$100 depending on how crushed it is, but
I am a LEGO star wars guy, and don't buy the older stuff so take it with
a grain of salt. I am sure someone with more experience can give you a more accurate
Idea.

As far as value goes there is very little info about it, so it's up to what
a buyer and you agree on. Personally I don't think it would be worth that
much, especially if it is squashed up. Maybe just take highest offer, or most
reasonable, worth at a minimum $50 I would say, just because of age.

Erm. Now that you say it... I guess that's quite a difference. Yes. XD
I mostly use the 32198 for driving actuators. The 87407 doesn't make sense
there.
For some reason, I didn't really realize the obvious functional difference
before writing this post.
I just though "Oh, look, it has an outset on the hub to be more stable on
the axis.
Why then do people still use the inferior 32198?"
Little derp on my side.
Forgive me my confusion and thx for pointing it out.

| Since these error parts made it into sets on at least two occasions, I expect
that many were made. The mold was probably used for a few days, with one of the
mold cavities producing error bricks, before the error was detected.
There could be thousands out there, but compared to the amount of 3937 parts
out there it is only a small percentage.

This error was reported to have been found in set 71767, so it could have been
in any set around that time period. I also have seen such error parts years ago,
so that must have been an earlier mould maintenance mistake.
I am looking for these errors!
If you are selling, then I am really interested in buying

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.

Immediately after posting I thought to sort the Fabuland figures by year released
and I see lots of examples of smaller thumbs.

I saw these minifigures on the internet. Probably Ronin and Cable.
I'm looking for the common hair of the minifigures in the picture. But I
couldn't see this hair.
Do you know the product that contains this hair, or its part number?
(I'm new to Bricklink.Please let me know if my question is wrong.)

Hello, welcome to Bricklink!
The hair and minifigures are custom designs. Instagram: @legocustoms00
*Not sure if they are 3D models only. Please be careful of scams and fake websites!
If you don't mind ponytails, these are decently nice options:

This seems like an edit or custom part so you will not be able to find the common
part for these figures. You could ask the poster of these images how/if they
made this piece by customizing an existing part.

There’s a “Topic Descriptions” link next to the Topic box (just above the Subject
box).

I’m not sure many people filter by topic (except to exclude Sales ) or use
the Topics page as an entry point to the forum, but it’s still nice to try and
use the proper topic

Only your answer was sent to the LEGO products topic, so I changed the thread.

| me and my brother have spent days doing battle with each other. Luke vs Maul
was a classic match-up. He's jealous because I've got minifigures of
both of them and he doesn't have either - until later today possibly

When it’s first released it probably will but give it some time and most likely
it won’t

Where might it be found?

Just use 'g', as in [ g=4121-GEAR1 ], but you need to give the complete
ID. It’s only when the extension is “-1” that you can skip it

Contains 3 parts!

Storage boxes aren't really sets though, are they?
|
Why do I get the people who want to argue semantics?
It's useful to scoop up and store bricks, that means it's a functional
LEGO item, that one can buy.

Because plastic storage tubs are not intended to be interesting. They are not
a set. By their nature they are boring.
