Greetings,

I have a couple of torsos that I think are

 
Part No: 973pb0906c01  Name: Torso Open Jacket Hoodie with 4 Buttons over Medium Blue Sweater Pattern / Orange Arms / Yellow Hands
* 
973pb0906c01 (Inv) Torso Open Jacket Hoodie with 4 Buttons over Medium Blue Sweater Pattern / Orange Arms / Yellow Hands
Parts: Minifigure, Torso Assembly, Decor.

however, the underlying sweater pattern looks sand blue to me instead of light
blue. Is this just normal color variation?

Thanks in advance.

rule #6 caught me

things like "form a chemical bond", "hazard to you"
... uh?

1. I have never heard about these chemical reactions. Who knows more about it?

2. sooo... Is it illegal to mount a trans-clear brick over a trans-red one? Does
it depends on the specific trans* color?

Hey all, I've googled this but didn't find anything...
Are there variations in trans-light blue? I've got all my trans light blue
1x1 round plates from sealed seats I've bought in local stores and parted
out according to the BrickLink catalog. I can see two distinct batches, a lighter
and a darker variant, often inside the same set. Is this a known "issue" or are
the part listings wrong and it's actually a different color?

Thanks,
Peter

I have several parts 42022 in my collection (16 I think) in Dark Purple. I for
sure got them in a new set as I do not buy used stuff from eBay or else. The
puzzle (nagging question) is that such part does not show up at all in Dark Purple
in any Bricklink Set. In fact the color is totally non-existent.

Any clue what set such part comes from ?

So I started working on a new, more compact color guide a few weeks ago. This
is what I got so far.

As of right now I am missing some pretty easy 1x2 plate or tile entries for Nougat,
Light Nougat, Sand Green and Brown.

Then I may have to get a little creative to fit these on there:

Very Light Bluish Gray
 
Part No: 53989  Name: Arm Mechanical, Exo-Force / Bionicle, Thin Support
* 
53989 Arm Mechanical, Exo-Force / Bionicle, Thin Support
Parts: Minifigure, Body Part {Very Light Bluish Gray}

Rust
 
Part No: 2335  Name: Flag 2 x 2 Square
* 
2335 Flag 2 x 2 Square
Parts: Flag {Rust}

Blue Violet
 
Part No: 47458  Name: Slope, Curved 1 x 2 x 2/3 Wing End
* 
47458 Slope, Curved 1 x 2 x 2/3 Wing End
Parts: Slope, Curved {Blue-Violet}

Light Violet
 
Part No: 3899  Name: Minifigure, Utensil Cup
* 
3899 Minifigure, Utensil Cup
Parts: Minifigure, Utensil {Light Violet}

Sand Purple
 
Part No: 30375  Name: Torso Mechanical, Battle Droid
* 
30375 Torso Mechanical, Battle Droid
Parts: Minifigure, Body Part {Sand Purple}

Dark Blue Violet
 
Part No: 3710  Name: Plate 1 x 4
* 
3710 Plate 1 x 4
Parts: Plate {Dark Blue-Violet}

Light Yellow
 
Part No: 3022  Name: Plate 2 x 2
* 
3022 Plate 2 x 2
Parts: Plate {Light Yellow}

I haven't really started looking at the more unique colors like trans and
metallic colors. I'll tackle those once I finish with the solid colors

I'd love to know what others think and if they have any better suggestions
for parts to use for the colors I listed or suggestions on additional colors
that I might be able to add that I didn't list.

Also if anyone knows a good way to arrange all the colors that's a little
more "smooth" on the gradient (more like a rainbow) than what I did, that would
be awesome.

-Pete

I just received a number of 2x4 bricks to complete my color pallet, but I've
already identified two problem with the order, and I'm unsure if the other
bricks included are the right color either. The tall part is confirmed Blue-violet
from set 8781. The two purple-ish pieces are supposed to be Medium Violet and
Light Purple. While I believe one of them might be Medium Violet, 1) I don't
know which one it would be and 2) I'm fairly sure the second is not Light
Purple so I don't know what it would be.

So I sent some trans neon orange parts to a buyer and he states that they are
actually trans orange. One of the parts does not come in trans orange, so I
am pretty sure it is actually neon.

He sent this pic, claiming the ones on the right are trans orange. I read somewhere
that trans neon orange has changed over the years. Is this just a case of old
vs new trans neon orange?

I also included a pic of the three shades of orange I have in the round brick.
Is it old TNO, new TNO and TO?

Are there two shades for light grey - one seems much "greener" and a bit darker
than the other. If so, how do you differentiate between them when selling Lego.

Thank you so much!

Hi!

We sold some used trans-neon bricks 1x1 and the buyer is saying that they are
not trans-neon orange because they do not glow under black light.

Unless we're mistaken, the new trans-neon orange does not glow under black
light, are we wrong here? I remember the bricks as I listed them not too long
ago and I had compared the color to trans-neon orange we had from brand new sets
parted out and to some trans-orange again from parted out brand new lego sets
and the color was not trans-orange, it had the reddish tinge that the trans-neon
orange has but it's not 'milky' like the old trans-neon orange.

Are we mistaken? If we are we will correct our assumptions but we seem to recall
seeing a discussion about trans-neon orange but can't find it at the moment.

3 of them appear lighter hue.

I see there is price guide info and a picture for the trans-light purple, but
it doesn't look like that color ever came in a set

Is there documentation that this part varies in this color?

Hello Lego lovers!
I'm interested in building "Lego color periodic table" where I would represent
all Lego colors. So, I'm interested is there some parts that came in all
Lego colors?! Can that be checked in some way?
Thanks!

So, I finally found a store that sells what I need for the Tallneck model, you
know, the Wayne de Beer one. But I noticed it urged me to get a completely different
dish. Apparently, the 9x9 radar dish with pin hole doesn't exist in white?
Is that really true? Because clearly the Bricklink stock photo shows a white
one?

After looking through posts, some users said that “color may vary” means that
the second more detailed image of the part is just showing the same part, but
in a different color, but others said it meant other things. Does “color may
vary” mean the color is random and not the color that it is listed as? One user
said that it meant that the color of the part might be slightly different because
lego is not consistent with colors, for example, two white bricks and one is
a more little tan-ish if you hold it up to a light and look closely.

panels and I'm not sure
what colour they are. My best guess is metallic green but I don't have a

as "lively" as the ones on the part page.

In the attached picture are a pearl dark grey armour piece, a dark bluish grey
exoforce arm and a dark grey brick for reference.

Thanks in advance,

I have an First Order Stormtrooper with flamethrower on his back that is adjusted
with part 15712 black tile modified 1x1 open O clip.

One of these 15712 isn’t black but trans black, see my own made picture.
Not in any other set, not being sold in the last 6 months if I see it well.
It is the real deal, marked with Lego and partnumber.

If a Dutch Bricklinkmember is interested: make me an offer.
Shipping abroad would be very expensive since I cannot offer the lower shippingcosts
some Dutch sellers can, sorry!

Friends,

I'm colorblind (red-green) and struggle with successfully identifying some
of these colors. I had no idea there were so many variations of the color gray!
Has anyone put together a convenient brick color guide? I'd happily
buy one so that I don't order wrong.

Thanks in advance!

Hello.

I have a huge dilemma.

Yes, I know that I can do what I like when it comes to my own LEGO, and I really
NEED to find out the best way to get 2 specific parts coloured to the colour
I need.

I've built a Harry Potter "Knight Bus" in the same manner as the Creator
"London Bus" set, and this has been 99% successful, with the exception of this
part:-

 
Part No: 24599  Name: Brick, Round Corner 5 x 5 x 1 without Studs
* 
24599 Brick, Round Corner 5 x 5 x 1 without Studs
Parts: Brick, Round

This element NEEDS to be in Dark Purple

As I'm based in the UK, I really need to find the nearest and best product
to use to get this covered in Dark Purple (paint, or even some kind of wrap/lacquer)

Other than trying to get someone to 3-D print one, I'm stuck.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,

Paul

Hi,

I think this may be a stupid question.... however, i'm confused about how
there are X number of colours under known for a certain item, then there are
Y (often a lot more) colours on sale of that item.

For instance i'm in the process of making colour minifigures with all my
plain spare parts, and there are about 30 known colours of a plain torso, but
then about 60 colours on sale?

Thanks!

Is there a way to see in the catalog what pieces that come in the most unique
colors. I have a color chart made from 3001 bricks and a few other random parts
right now, but I'd kind of like to make a smaller more compact version.
Was wondering if there was an easy way to get this info.

Thanks,
Pete

Hello everyone!!
I have recently paid for a mock, gotten the instructions and parts list files
etc and are now slowly ordering all the parts. Today it has come to my attention
that some of the parts look like one color to me but were meant to be another...

So, the question I would like an answer too, is there a noticeable difference
in the "Bright Light Orange" color and the "Yellow" color??

I am slightly red/green color blind so there might be that but I'm not sure
and are wandering if i need to switch all the future parts i order from bright
light orange to yellow :s

Hi
I want to understand the logic behind the color names.
Why medium lavender is not dark lavender?
Medium suppose to be lighter than the main color, isn't it?
Like medium green, medium orange, medium blue and medium brown.
The medium lavender is much darker than lavender, so the name for it should be
dark lavender.
What do you think?

Maybe the correct color should be Trans Milky or Trans White?

Hope this post is in the right place.
It's bugged me a while now that the Bionicle eye stalk piece that is included
in 8534, 8540 and 8572 is listed as trans dark pink despite the face that it's
more of a neon red-magenta color. As far as I know there are no other pieces
in this color, so I understand that it would probably be a waste of time to create
a new color just for one piece, but it may cause confusion for some that the
listed color is not actually the color in which the piece comes.

does anyone know whether Lego has a protective right to their colors? Unfortunately,
I did not find anything in my research

I'm relatively new to selling on brick link and even less experienced with
vintage sets. I acquired a fairly complete 1984 Knight's Castle set 6073.
I was missing several light gray bricks and I purchased some on brick link. I
know that there can be variation in color between different production runs and
from year to year. Then you have the time factor, sun fading, etc. I took several
pictures of my light gray bricks and I placed a new light bluish gray brick on
top that I took from a recent star wars set. My question to the group is. Are
all these bricks light gray? Should I even bother trying to sell a set with this
kind of color variation? How much of a detraction is this from the sets value?
Thanks.

I have these two pieces of part 55236 with different coloring. They both glow
in the dark, but there is only one glow in dark color entry, for Glow In Dark
Opaque.

Is one discolored? Are there color variances within Glow In Dark Opaque?

I have some bricks that I can't give the right color when listing them in
my inventory.
It is between trans green and trans bright green. See picture middle brick 1x8.
Can we call it trans medium green ??

What do you think and how to handle this color. I bought the bricks a years ago
at Legoland Deutschland and didn't use them. So I want to sell some of them.

I have in my possession part 86059 (Rein with Bridle Flexible) in dark gray -
NOT dark bluish gray. I find this curious, since the part wasn't manufactured
until 2009, long after old dark gray was phased out. I am certain it not discolored
from sun exposure, because the color is uniform on all areas of the part. And
I doubt it is just a variation in color due to its material, because it is VERY
close in color to other dark gray parts. Any ideas?

(I was going to post a picture to show the comparison, but my phone did not capture
the colors well enough to show the difference/similarity between the parts.)

Has anyone (besides me) seen the newer LEGO knock-offs?! It's almost as if
someone defected from LEGO and took the color recipes with them!! The latest
batch I got at auction is loaded with them. I used to be able to tell the difference
just by looking at them. The colors were always just a little off, and many didn't
come in anything close to the LEGO colors. I have had to check every single piece
of this latest batch because the colors are almost identical! And pieces that
didn't come in the oh-so-close LEGO colors now do!! The colors are so close
that I've had to look at the smaller pieces under a magnifying glass to check
for the LEGO logo! It's frustrating to pay for what I think is a box of LEGO
only to find more than 3/4 are knock-offs!!

If anyone else is buying their stock at auction or at Thrift stores, check very
carefully that what you have is genuine LEGO.

I need some help about discolored white new parts.

How is it possible that new white parts are not really white any more?
I have part out some brand new sets (straight from the box) some months ago and
I sold some white parts. Now I get the question from the buyer that the parts
are not really white. I have stored the parts in a drawer where there is no sunlight.
How is it possible that the parts are not really white any more? is it a factory
mistake or is it the dark drawer ore what else.
Can any body help me what the problem is.

I got this piece as part of an auction buy. It's a genuine LEGO piece, plate
4x8, but I cannot identify the color. It's not Tan, nor is it Bright Light
Yellow, it's lighter. I thought it might be Light Lime but there's no
green tint to it.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,

Is there a site where i can order the LEGO 10220 Volkswagen T1 Camper Van but
with a different color?

I want to replace all the red to pink (present for my sister).

Have been looking, but is very difficult to find it.

Hi, I've got this bionicle-mask and I'm wondering what color it is.
I'm guessing copper but I'm not sure...I don't have anything else
in that color.
When I'm looking at the color info for this part (Item no: 32571) I can choose
from copper and metallic gold, it seems too dark for gold. On the picture it
is next to pearl gold and reddish brown.
What do you think?? Thanks!

Now that TLG has acquired BL, isn't it about time that we set about resolving
conflicting colour names? The flesh/nougat adjustment shows that it's possible,
so when are we going to rename BL Dark Green to Earth Green?

Obviously there are many others which need aligned over time, but currently Dark
Green should be an immediate priority.

Hi,

So I'd like someone to have a look at this and see if I am going mad please.
Have a look at the first picture without looking at the second you will see both
parts stuck together look identical in colour. Both are brown. Now look at the
second picture the same part Plate 1x1 with the design on that side of it is
listed only as reddish brown and never as brown. Should this not be listed as
brown?

Kind regards

Barry

Hey Bricklink Community,

I am in the middle of getting pieces that I am missing from my Lego sets I have
had since I was a kid. I ordered a bunch of pieces from the Lego Store. 5 pieces
I need are 4 grey pieces and 1 brown. The ones I got from the Lego Store are
not the right color of grey or brown. The grey medium stone grey and brown reddish
brown.

The sets I need the pieces for are from the 90's. On toysperiod.com they
say the pieces that I need are old grey and old brown. As I look through the
stores on this site I'm not sure which color name they fit under. If anyone
can help me out that would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Matthew

Hi,

The Color Guide download shows Black as RGB 212121 and Dark Brown as 510000

This makes Dark Brown darker than Black

I would expect Black to be RGB 000000

Why is that?

Thx,
Arnoud
