Hey All,
I just found this forum tab and its awesome! I am wondering what the rarest colour
is. Like what color appears in the least amount of sets. What makes the colour
rare?
Things like that,
Thanks,
The Cute Giraffe

Your best bet is to look at the colour guide - https://www.bricklink.com/catalogColors.asp
It gives you all the information you could need about all the lego colours.
Chrome Green is the rarest by set since there is only one piece that came in
two sets.

That must be what i keep hearing every now and then when something falls on my
floor and I can hear it but never find it only the vacuum cleaner can find it
when you here the hearth breaking sound of it sucking lego up.

Invisible. It is very hard to find parts of this color.

Camouflage is the second hardest color of parts to find.

Right now one of the hardest to find colors is Pearl gold in 2x4.
But there are many rare colors out there waiting to be found….

In general, the Duplo one-of colors are pretty rare (in that they only occur
in one part and those parts themselves are rare):

I'm going to go with 8 Cobalt Blue. As far as I know, it never appeared in
any sets, and the only known non-production parts are 2x2 color palette tiles.

...then there are unreleased colors that never even got so much as a tile, like
152 Earth Red
