I just obtained an Indominus rex figure in a large lot I purchased (Jurassic
World set 75919). The spots are more of a darker bluish gray whereas the descriptions
on Brick link state light bluish gray. Are there variations in color? Does
anyone know if there are Lego markings on the figure to verify authenticity?
Any knockoffs to be aware of? Thanks
I recently purchased a group of older Lego sets including some castle sets.
It was someone's childhood collection. The sets were mostly complete, some
missing a few small parts. Boxes and instructions in good shape. Sold a set
and the buyer thought two 8x16 base plates looked like they were cut from a 16x16
plate. Sent a partial refund but not fully convinced this was the case as when
I inventoried the set nothing jumped out at me as being wrong. I guess the question
is were the older base plates cut/manufactured differently than newer ones?
Yes, Lego used to create large baseplates then cut them to size. So many baseplates
will have that "cut" look on at least one side.
Thanks. That is what I thought. Have a feeling the buyer was looking for a
little extra discount. Oh well.
