41999 was bad enough, but that was more quantity, a smaller audience, and worldwide.
Releasing these with no notice and just to Wal-Mart in the US is a dick move.
It's not like they are fringe characters either, a lot of people like these
two, it just doesn't make sense to not release these popular characters worldwide
to take advantage of the movie.
I'm all for scumbag reselling, you have to hate the game not the player.
LEGO shouldn't be enabling this in the first place, just like 41999, just
like the series 18 Policeman. I'm all for taking advantage as a seller, but
I don't agree the opportunity should exist in the first place.

I'm hoping they do release worldwide, and not limited. It would be stupid
not to. If they don't release Emmet and Wyldstyle, then there is no point
in wider releases of Sweet Mayhem and Benny.

You would think so, right?!?
Actually, I do not mind buying sealed sets for verifying the catalog when I want
them in my collection and the price is reasonable. For this one, the price was
reasonable, but I just didn't want it!

Yes I am, that is my Flickr page.
I think that Pikachu3 has the only complete collection of 3001 in all the known

|
So maybe this is the 73rd color?!?

Are the two 1x2 bricks different colors? They look a little off in my screen.
If they aren't the same color, then it looks like the left one is Medium
Yellowish Orange and the right one (and the 2x4) is Warm Yellowish Orange.
|
Yes. the 1x2 bricks is not in the same color.
the right 1x2 is "light orange" (b.l name) the left 1x2 is the common now days
"bright light orange" (b.l name)
i'm sure that the brick i have is not bright light orange, not medium orange
and not very light orange. i'm almost sure the color is Medium Yellowish
Orange. it looks perfect when i add it to your picture (by the way- great job-
it realy helps me to get by with all the millions colors out there).

| I think the 2x4 brick is really light orange , but it's not warm yellowish
orange (color no. 225). the corect color is Medium Yellowish Orange (color no.
121). it's defently not Flame Yellowish Orange (color no.191)
I'm looking for a 3001 master who can tell the exact color.
|
Those are my pictures Medium Yellowish Orange and Warm Yellowish Orange are
very close, so it's hard to compare photos taken in different lighting conditions.
Your best bet is to find a part you *know* is Medium Yellowish Orange and compare
in person. I can take a comparison pic of the oranges I have, if it will help.
Yes, I think my modern 3001 collection is the largest, but Medium Yellowish Orange
is one I'm missing. (There may also be a Pearl Gold, but I haven't seen
any in the wild yet.)

The part you are trying to add is much smaller than the huge rubber band in this
book. In fact, it is not a rubber band at all. It's a rubber belt.
There is a note at the bottom of the inventory page for this book which states:
"Incomplete. Missing huge rubber band shown on parts list."
Upon looking, this huge rubber band is not in the BrickLink catalog, so the inventory
for now will remain incomplete.

I encounter this occasionally, I just make a note in the description. I do think

I've also seen pictures of "instructions" that are likely just images of

My personal vote is "ammunition belt". It makes it difficult to find a torso
in the catalog when you don't know the character or theme.
For example: "Torso Pharaoh's Quest Tan Waistcoat, White Shirt, Bandolier
and Silver Buckle Pattern (Jake Raines) / Tan Arms / Yellow Hands" (973pb0781c01)
"Torso Monster Fighters with Ammunition Belt Pattern / Dark Tan Arms / Yellow
Hands" (973pb1113c01)
These two items are similar-looking.

and not useful, mostly for buyers, but also for sellers who seek accuracy and
honesty regarding their inventory.
I mean, for now a seller can only pick new or used, but pretty much everyone
has his/her own standard and I got some used parts which are like new, some others
which are closer to the one way ticket to trash, if you see what I mean .
It's not good nor practical to force seller to put actual picture(s) of all
the used parts, both hobbyist and professional has better use of their time I
guess.
Plus, asking for every single part before ordering is not good either, some sellers
didn't took time to reply to potential buyer's question already.
And when seller put description, it's quite subjective, one adjective is
far to describe actual shape of a part: "bite marks, yellowish", ok but how many
marks, how deep ?
how much "yellowished" is the brick ?
Some may claims "quite good", some other "I can't send them to trash".
A quality score could be added to a used part. It would be used as well to set
the sell price, as trash-ready used parts can lower the infamous "average 6 months"
and lower ALL prices, which is very unfair for like new parts.
Any thoughts ?

The other site that has various categories of Used was the #1 reason I will never
use it, unless BL goes away. I do not want to have to make my judgment call
and "hope" that the buyer has the same judgment call on what category of "used"
I selected.
Here is my advice when buying Used. Buy from various sources, when you find
a source that sells you crap compared to others... don't buy from the crap
store anymore and continue buying from the stores that treat you well. For example,
a large % of my Used pieces I am confident I could put down "like-new" and maybe
even sell them as "new" and no one would know the difference. I surely don't
do that but I'm trying to make a point. I don't make too many comments
on Used Items because it isn't necessary. Buyers that purchase from me multiple
times know what to expect, that a large percentage of Used items will be in good-great
condition unless I did make a notation about a specific dent, scratch, etc...
but didn't want to toss the piece as it has value to it, however, still have
the notation that it any piece is Used and could have been played with.
I don't think we need any Buyer Rating system either. This will only cause
uproar when our opinions are ever so slightly different.
Each Store can make their own process as they see fit. I have no issue with anyone
taking the time to do this. I certainly do not have the time to "judge" every
piece though. It would literally be sorting everything once which takes long
enough, and then sorting them all again and instead of having 2 main locations
for items stored (new and used) you would need 4 or 5 or who knows how many to
make sure you are pulling from the correct drawer, bag or akro-mill slot, etc...
There is Positive, Neutral and Negative Feedback available if, as a buyer, anyone
does not agree with what they received from what they purchased.
I understand your argument but I, and I assume many others here, do not have
another 4-8 hours per day to put into subjective scoring. Thanks

I can make a photo of all your reference colours with added Medium Yellowish
Orange and Warm Yellowish Orange. It will probably be a few days before I can
make time for that.
Also, the list only contains known colors for 3001. It is possible that more
colors were made. The list is updated when new colors are confirmed.

I had a shipment of Lego parts recently that were a batch of new and used allegedly
"clean" Lego parts that all stank to high heaven of tobacco smoke. Some sellers
really don't care about the product at all. The b@stard even gave me a negative
feedback for complaining that a product I had paid good money for smelled terrible.

I dunno, I notice most sellers don't even bother to describe their used parts
at all. So I find any description, even an opinion that may be slightly off from
mine, useful to me.
I've skipped sellers in the past due to no description (esp on expensive
instructions). Every junk part I've received has been on the cheaper end
with no description.
Anyway, I don't see a way to police this, honestly. Its too subjective. You
could have a rating system like ebay where you can rate the item "as described"
with up to 5 stars. However this means tons of sellers would now have to actually
take the time to describe their parts.

| I think that many sellers know how to properly describe their lego and to ensure
that "used" lego is not junk. Bite marks, discolouration, deep scratches, and
damage are not part of what "used" means. All of those can only pass as filler
and should be clearly described as such.
I believe the best assurance a buyer has that used parts will be of good quality
is to choose a seller with a significant amount of positive feedback.
Buyers can also help themselves by regularly informing sellers if used parts
do not meet the standards for listing.

Depends on how much more $ buyers want to pay for used parts tp compensate for
the added time involved with listing,sorting,storing multiple conditions of the
same part.

In another site, there are different used ratings, Used (like new), used (good),
used (acceptable). i think this is a good idea.
Of course any seller can lie, and list a chewed part as like new, but then they
also could list a used set as new sealed if they wish, feedback should reflect
that.
