All -

The catalog team is happy to announce that we have made another step towards
one-to-one color correspondence with the official LEGO colors that have been
used over time.

These new BrickLink colors will be specifically useful for those Bionicle collectors
out there, but they will also allow any other color collectors to complete their
collections easier.

Being as these colors are unique to Bionicle and are similar to other established
colors, they have all been given the designator "Bionicle" in their BrickLink
names.

So without further ado, the new BrickLink colors are:

----------

Bionicle Copper -

This color will only be used for a direct one-to-one relationship with LEGO color
176 Red Flip/Flop: https://www.flickr.com/photos/126975831@N07/15123159082/

----------

Bionicle Gold -

This color will only be used for a direct one-to-one relationship with LEGO color
178 Yellow Flip/Flop: https://www.flickr.com/photos/126975831@N07/15123158122/

----------

Bionicle Silver -

This color will only be used for a direct one-to-one relationship with LEGO color
178 Yellow Flip/Flop: https://www.flickr.com/photos/126975831@N07/15100531986/

----------

BrickLink is the first official LEGO marketplace / fan site / software outside
of LEGO itself to recognize *and* use these colors. Peeron recognized them in
the past, but they never used them for anything.

We have already made all of the appropriate changes in the catalog to the part
images and set inventories that were affected by these additions, so they are
ready for use by all.

Enjoy!

Cheers,
Randy

VERY good job, ladies & gentlemen!

But now I fear I'll start to see sellers uploading lots like:

3024 Plate 1 x 1 Bionicle Gold 0.10$



... especially while they still have difficulties with 3004 and 3065

In 10 years maybe the BL AI will tell them "I don't believe it can be this
specific part!" or "This color is very probably the wrong one!"

But that's Sci-Fi. Until then - thanks again!

Sorry everyone. There was a typo in my original message. The last color should
read:

Bionicle Silver -

This color will only be used for a direct one-to-one relationship with LEGO color
179 Silver Flip/Flop: https://www.flickr.com/photos/126975831@N07/15100531986/
