I've been collecting different Lego colours, 3001 bricks and rare(ish) parts
for a while and now I have a fair collection put away in a draw I'm thinking
of the best way to store them. I'd like to have them on display somewhere
but have limited space for that. If I had my way I'd mount them onto large
baseplates and put them on the wall like pictures, but not sure I'd get away
with that.

Just wondering how other Lego colour / oddity parts collectors store or display
theirs.

I wonder if any colour gurus can help me with this 2x4 brick. The closest I can
pin it to is Medium Violet, I've attached a picture (top right brick)to try
and show the colour the best I can. I'm aware there are two Medium Violets
out there, a Lilac and Medium Bluish Lilac and wondering if it could be one of
these. The lamp post is Violet for reference. Any help would be appreciated
as it's a head-scratcher.

I think these bands are x88 but don't come up in known sets. Does anyone
have any of these and could tell me what colour they are or where they could
even come from. They came in a batch of all used Lego parts and no non-Lego
so if they are not genuine they are the only items from the whole batch. They
look Magenta or Dark Pink and also slightly trans. Thanks.
