You can find early bricks without Lego logo on the studs but not often seen these
days, most have slots but not all.

The long side fill gate was used on a few odd moulds, usually test moulds I believe.

I have seen clone brands with the colour shown by OP.

  If LEGO is not on the studs, then it is not a LEGO. I have never seen a part
that you cannot read LEGO on the studs. I have parts from bulk lots severely
worn, bitten, scratched up, and have never seen a part that you can't read
the logo on the studs.

As stated in other posts, the fact that the fill gate is on the long side of
the part is another sure sign that this is not LEGO.

  I got an 1x4 brick but i cannot find the satisfying color in the catalog. I would
say it is either medium brown or dark nougat both do not exist in the catalog
can someone help with identifying the color

the other colors on the picture are reddish brown (left crate) medium nougat
(right crate) and dark orange (slope)

Is there a list somewhere of items involved ?

Missed it if there is, this could be interesting.

  This is not a big deal for me personally as I am not currently selling here,
so I can plan it when I want.. but... really?!

The catalog changes are scheduled for April 1. That's only 2 weeks away.
I noticed that this is a DRAMATIC catalog update that will throw the entire store
upside down. Definitely won't be able to take my entire 1.2 million parts
store apart and piece it back together just casually within these next two weeks
between sorting orders. Especially moving all the wedges will be be fun puzzle.

Not gonna object against any changes, they seem alright to me. Except that there's
one change clearly missing from that list: Moving the 2x2 corner brick to Brick,
Modified.. (since plate and tile are there)

I hope this really was THE update everyone was waiting for, and now we're
satisfied..

  One of my uncles was at a garage/estate sale some 20 years ago and found 2 "sealed"
of the attached samsonite LEGO sets. I say sealed because they are just closed
ends with nothing that really seals them. I did open to verify their contents
as gently as I could. Are these considered sale-able LEGO sets here? The set
number is listed as 216 for white bricks in various sizes. Its dimensions are
approximately 3in x 4in x 1in.

Best Regards,
Michael

Not sure what I'd do with them.

When there are so few I can see why some things are bunched together or if they
can be used to represent different items.

Don't know the category myself, I'll take a look.

you think that the mushroom should be moved then? or just renamed to help with
category standardization.

I requested to change the name to Duplo Plant Mushroom...Etc. And I'm not

Anyone got an idea of why it was rejected or should I request it again.
All help is appreciated

Sad news indeed.

A huge thank you from me for all that you, Hygrotus, have done and posted over
the years, you will certainly be missed regarding your contributions.

Hope to still see you on the forum.

  Dear BrickLink members,

On Friday we heard from Hygrotus, currently our longest serving catalog admin,
that he was relinquishing his position. This is for sure a setback for our team,
as he was an unequalled expert in many areas and was exceptionally diligent and
careful in his work.

We will certainly miss him, and we wish him the best for the future. You can
read his BrickLink story here:

https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1249971

The CEP admin page is not updated yet with this new information. We hope to finish
that by the end of the week.

As part of the regular course of building the Community Expert catalog admin
program, we were planning to add another admin to the team this Spring (Apr/May).
That continues to be our plan.

Hi Maxx,

Always nice to see, did these come out of sets?

Love the orange plate

Maxx

The short shot came out of a set, the rest I found while sorting through Used
lots.

Nice!

  
I may be heading to your store soon Maxx, it's been too long since I indulged
and I see you got some new stuff

Yes, I am uploading some stuff again, cleaning my drawers

Looks like it comes in both.

A large number of sellers offering pearl light grey although it's not listed
in sets, not all of them will have listed them incorrectly.

Many items exist in colours not found in sets.

  Can someone confirm that this part comes only in flat silver... NOT Pearl Light
Gray? The parts we have look like pearl, not flat silver?
