| | | UVs don’t tan the plastic. UVs accelerate or make possible some chemical reactions
in the plastic.
Other things may accelerate the reactions. And the reactions also occur all
by themselves.

Came here to say this.
so yeah. This.

| | When sorting my parts
I've noticed some blue and black versions that look different. The shade
of blue is a bit greenish (image may not show this clearly) and the shade of
blue is a bit greyish. They are easily identifiable by their color variation
but they can also be identified by some whitening/fraying along the edges. I
believe they're made from a softer plastic than usual. Are these vintage
or from certain special sets?

I do agree that vintage ones look different and seem to be of a different plastic.
I have never found a modern one broken either.

I use my tablet to pull orders and its meh, could be better, but I've used
my phone to check prices or sell rates when in a store sometimes and its awful.
I end up just doing "lego" + "set number" + "bricklink" in google to just skip
straight to the entry. It's faster to do it that way then through the BL
site, on my old phone at least.

Are these current colors with Lego?
Thanks in advance!!

The easy way is to ask yourself, "where did these come from?" The light grey
and old brown are only from "vintage" sets. So if you aren't seeing really
early 2000's sets or older, or its from new sets you can assume its the modern
colors.
