Comments from Submitter:
No photos of this minfigure look close to sand blue, I can find no visual evidence this was or is sand blue. Both of the used figures I have are light bluish gray arms and shirt.

I would also like to change the name of the item to say light bluish gray shirt, not sand blue.

Sorry wasn't in forum when you submited this and I corrected my own mistake
two minutes later than you post it.

The Minifig is listed with 2 Heads (3626ap01 + 3626bp01). Only one Head can be correct.

"b" variant should be deleted from the inventory of this minifig not "a"
In 2016 inventory admin viejos was changing in old minifigs "b" head to "a" head
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogInvChangeItem.asp?itemItemID=9002
and probably forget to delete "b" from this one.
But anyway thanks for catching this error.

P.S.
I rejected your request and deleted "b" variant.

Randyf has beaten you to it by using a supersecret searching method which he
will happily reveal for the low, low price of $29.95 USD (cash only, no refunds,
limited time offer, results may vary).

Fortunately, someone who will remain nameless has privately revealed to me free
of charge the secret searching method that Randy used, but I am not at liberty
to disclose the method.

Prior to today, I had no idea how to find such things (which is why I suggested
that someone else search for it).

Would it be possible for us to be able to write down notes for all the different
carts we have? I usually have 8-15 carts going that I'm debating between,
and usually have to open each one to see what's there and why I haven't
bought it yet. For Instance: "This cart contains a rare minifig that won't
last long at that price, so buy this next."

Thanks!

  Hello,

Does anyone know what colour is the sword in the middle? I was sold to me as
metallic gold but looks different from my own mg which is the left one (right
one is copper). Or is it just a color variation?

Thanks,
Alexandre

Metallic Gold is a BrickLink color referring to a plain part (usually made in
Tan) that has had a coating applied to it. The coating is only applied to ABS
parts, and these swords were not made with ABS. My guess is that they were made
from polyethylene. Therefore, the first thing to realize is that none of them
are Metallic Gold.

The center one is definitely LEGO color Warm Gold, which is Pearl Gold on BrickLink.
The left one looks too light to me to be BrickLink's Flat Dark Gold (LEGO's
Metallic Sand Yellow), so it is probably just a Pearl Gold variation.

Cheers,
Randy

Thank you for your reply.

However it makes me even more confused. The sword on the left is exactly (and
I mean, exactly) the same color as the viking helmet which is said to be metallic
gold. How can it be another color then? That sword in mg appears in several sets
according to the BL catalog and very different from the one in the middle (the
texture is different, more "solid", don't know how to say it).
Also, I compared all these swords with pearl gold parts and if I remember well,
the colors did not match.

Thanks,
Alexandre

Here is an image of parts in BrickLink Metallic Gold:

https://www.flickr.com/photos/126975831@N07/15218053575/

Notice that none of them are molded from gold-colored plastic. They have a gold
paint applied to them through a drum lacquering process. On a flexible part like
the swords in question, the painted coating would flake off upon bending the
part. That is why this process (and in effect BrickLink color) is not used on
flexible parts.

Now, here is an image of parts in BrickLink Pearl Gold:

https://www.flickr.com/photos/126975831@N07/15211982695/

Notice that all of these parts are molded from gold-colored plastic.

It is very easy to tell which is which due to the texture of the part and how
they reflect light. However, the easiest way to tell is usually looking underneath
the painted parts to see that their undersides do not get completely covered
in paint.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

According to official LEGO sources, this particular sword was made in the following
colors:

(1) LEGO METALLIC SAND BLUE (BrickLink Metal Blue)

https://www.flickr.com/photos/126975831@N07/14908529407/

(2) LEGO REDDISH GOLD / GOLD METALLIC (Lumped into BrickLink Copper but *not*
BrickLink Copper)

https://www.flickr.com/photos/126975831@N07/14948075737/

https://www.flickr.com/photos/126975831@N07/15056373636/

Notice the huge difference between these two colors that are both listed as Copper
on BrickLink.

(3) LEGO BRIGHT YELLOW = BrickLink Yellow

(4) LEGO METALLIC SAND YELLOW = BrickLink Flat Dark Gold

https://www.flickr.com/photos/126975831@N07/14908616158/

(5) LEGO BRIGHT RED = BrickLink Red

(6) LEGO SILVER = split between BrickLink Pearl Light Gray *and* BrickLink Flat
Silver

https://www.flickr.com/photos/126975831@N07/15076958255/

(7) LEGO BLACK = BrickLink Black

(8) LEGO WARM GOLD = BrickLink Pearl Gold

https://www.flickr.com/photos/126975831@N07/15211982695/

(9) LEGO NEW DARK RED = BrickLink Dark Red

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So, LEGO only used nine colors to make the part. However, BrickLink inventories
list 11 colors. Why the difference? Because the Flat Silver ones and Pearl Light
Gray ones are considered the same color according to LEGO, and the Metallic Gold
ones are not really Metallic Gold but some varitaion of Pearl Gold. In other
words, there is a lot of work that needs to be done on BrickLink to fix up some
of the colors and inventories.

In any case, browse through the pictures above and see which one closest matches
your swords.

HTH,
Randy

  Assorted profoundly wise things

I know of no sets in which these hinges came unassembled. The parts list on
the box shows them assembled (photo attached). The fact that they are unassembled
in the inventory can be attributed to the fact that the person who inventoried
the set had a thing for breaking parts down into their smallest units in inventories.

If anyone is bored and is interested in finding it, there is only one more set
in the catalog which shows the hinge unassembled. I have no idea which set it
is, but it also needs to be corrected.

On the right 2 CAB round plates 1x1 bought recently New on BL, and on the left
1 other round plate fond in a random lot bought elsewhere. The 2 are same color
and I guess indeed CAB. But what color is the left?

Also, these plates are not solid same color, see second image... is this genuine?

Thx,

Yes - genuine
The one on the left is chrome gold and the two on the right are chrome antique

  Hello,

Does anyone know what colour is the sword in the middle? I was sold to me as
metallic gold but looks different from my own mg which is the left one (right
one is copper). Or is it just a color variation?

Thanks,
Alexandre

Metallic Gold is a BrickLink color referring to a plain part (usually made in
Tan) that has had a coating applied to it. The coating is only applied to ABS
parts, and these swords were not made with ABS. My guess is that they were made
from polyethylene. Therefore, the first thing to realize is that none of them
are Metallic Gold.

The center one is definitely LEGO color Warm Gold, which is Pearl Gold on BrickLink.
The left one looks too light to me to be BrickLink's Flat Dark Gold (LEGO's
Metallic Sand Yellow), so it is probably just a Pearl Gold variation.

Cheers,
Randy

Thank you for your reply.

However it makes me even more confused. The sword on the left is exactly (and
I mean, exactly) the same color as the viking helmet which is said to be metallic
gold. How can it be another color then? That sword in mg appears in several sets
according to the BL catalog and very different from the one in the middle (the
texture is different, more "solid", don't know how to say it).
Also, I compared all these swords with pearl gold parts and if I remember well,
the colors did not match.

Thanks,
Alexandre

Looks like Chrome Gold to me. That color used to have a lot of variation, even
coming close to Chrome Silver sometimes...

  Curious about these round plates.

On the right 2 CAB round plates 1x1 bought recently New on BL, and on the left
1 other round plate fond in a random lot bought elsewhere. The 2 are same color
and I guess indeed CAB. But what color is the left?

Also, these plates are not solid same color, see second image... is this genuine?

Thx,
Arnoud
