Hi,

I just saw that ‘deer’ was replaced by ‘elk’ in
[p=3846pb48]
 
Part No: 3846pb058  Name: Minifigure, Shield Triangular  with Forestmen Elk / Deer Head on Green Background with Black Outline Pattern
* 
3846pb058 Minifigure, Shield Triangular with Forestmen Elk / Deer Head on Green Background with Black Outline Pattern
Parts: Minifigure, Shield
[p=3070bpb119]

I don’t get why.  It’s clearly a Red Deer (cervus elaphus), not a Wapiti (cervus
canadensis; wrong continent) and certainly not a Moose/Elk (alces alces; wrong
antlers, wrong snout).

Could we have the rationale for that change?

Hi,

Can someone check whether 4623a was found in
 
Set No: 21011  Name: Brandenburg Gate
* 
21011-1 (Inv) Brandenburg Gate
363 Parts, 2011
Sets: Architecture
?

Because, as it is now, 4623 (undertermined version) is in the Alternate section. 
So it should either be deleted or replaced with 4623a.

Thanks.

Hi all,

Have you seen this little guy?

I was looking at the release announcements of 10497-1 and 10305-1 when I heard
some kind of howl and the sound of something flying out very fast and since then
I can’t find my friend anymore

Joining a sketch artist as I’ve no photo: he’s very shy and never wants to come
out.

TL;DR: the screen is a real OLED screen and the “text” (image actually) changes!


Wondering when TLG will realize we want things like that… or even simple lighting
bricks!

Hi all,

* 
18923c01 Vehicle, Base 8 x 16 x 2 1/2 with Mudguards Raised, 4 x 14 Recessed Center with 3 Holes, and Dark Bluish Gray Wheels Holders
Parts: Vehicle, Base

* 
68446c01 Vehicle, Base 8 x 16 x 2 1/2 with Mudguards, 4 x 14 Recessed Center with 5 Holes, and Dark Bluish Gray Wheels Holders
Parts: Vehicle, Base

I don’t have the parts, only 3D model for 18923c01, so could someone check they
are actually:

— 18923c01: 2 bricks high,
or 2 1/3 if you include the wheel axle brick (bottom is 1 plate lower than
the base),
or 2 1/3 if you include the top of the mudguards,
or 2 2/3 if you include both the bricks and the mudguards,

— 68446c01: 2 1/3 bricks high,
or 2 2/3 if you include the wheel axle bricks,
or is it 2 & 2 1/3? (I can’t see if it’s the base that is higher or the
mudguards that are lower),

and make the proper change request?

Thanks

Hi all,

In case you need a break from BL and crave for real culture (and not bad movies
https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1340513 ) here are some trivia about
the Muppets:


So, I recently found out that Fozzie Bear’s catchphrase in English is “Wocka
wocka!”  (But I don’t understand if that’s supposed to mean something?)

In French, he says “Intellectuel!” (“Brainy!”)… which his jokes rarely are

What does he say in your languages?


Prof Bunsen’s firstname is Walbec in French.  Walbec Bunsen.  Because “bec Bunsen”
(Bunsen beak) is the name for a Bunsen burner.


The Swinetrek is the Transporcherie (= trans-pigsty).


In the announcement for the Vetenerarian’s Hospital (les Muppets à l’hôpital),
it’s about an “orthopédiste à qui la médecine cassait les pieds.”  Literally,
“an orthopedic surgeon whose feet the medecine broke” but actually “an orthopedic
surgeon that medicine bugged.”


There, I think those are really important things that everybody should know

* Add 2 Part bb0076 Black Technic, Link Chain, Large with Studs (Extra)
* Change 4 Part Red 3660old Slope, Inverted 45 2 x 2 with Round Bottom Tube {match ID 0 to 1}

Comments from Submitter:
Not sure you’ll find it’s proven enough but here it is:

I’ve had this set since I was a child. It’s been played with, built, and unbuilt for years.

But:
1. I’ve 50x bb0076, without any other possible source.  I put the 2 more as Extra because 48x is enough (almost too many) for the build.
2. I don’t have any Red 3660old and all my Red 3660 are accounted for if I include this set.

Hi all,

Just saw the new Lightyear sets: https://brickset.com/article/73826

Do you see what I see on 76832 XL-15 Spaceship: the new windscreen doesn’t look
like Trans-Yellow but more neon-ish?

Would be a real bummer

Hi all,

Does anybody know or have a hunch about what parts will be made in the new colours?

Neon Yellow has already been used for many types (tiles, plates, bricks, slopes…)
but Medium Brown has only been used so far for “skin” (heads and mini doll torsos). 
Do you think MBn will (soonishly) be used for bricks & plates?

And what about the expected Warm Tan?

Wow, almost 6 full pages (291 items) of new items added to the catalogue “today”:
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogList.asp?pg=1&sortBy=D&sortAsc=D&catType=P

Is that a new record or what?

If not, then I’m pretty sure it’s one in the “with a hand tied in the back” category

Hi all,

I just read this Brickset news: https://brickset.com/article/63140
and the parts lists show strange colour names:

“The list // Previously known name // Bricklink

Light Orange // Flame Yellowish Orange // Light Orange
Lime Green // Bright Yellowish Green // Lime
Dark Purple // Medium Lilac // Dark Purple
Dark Pink // Bright Reddish Violet // Magenta
Medium Pink // Bright Purple // Dark Pink
Grey // Medium Stone Grey // Light Bluish Gray
Silver // Silver Metallic // Flat Silver
Transparent Pink // Transparent Medium Reddish Violet // Trans-Dark Pink”

Is a new mess coming?

Hi,

While we’re all occupied with plurals, I remembered that gear teeth are spelled
“tooth” for most parts
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogList.asp?q=gear+tooth&catType=P&catID=
but “teeth” for a few others
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogList.asp?q=gear+teeth&catType=P&catID=
(mainly the new gear plates and the differentials).

Is there a rationale?  For both the difference and the use of the singular because
I’ve trouble understanding why it’s “tooth.”

Hi all,

When searching for items from an order in one’s WLs, if the item in the WL has
N/A colour, and if the corresponding item in the order has a colour, then the
WL doesn’t appear in the results.

Example: WL has Plate 1x1 in colour N/A.
If you search in a store, you’ll be shown all the lots for a Plate 1x1, in any
colour.
If you use EasyBuy or Auto-select, a colour will be picked.
Then, if you buy a Plate 1x1 in a colour that is not N/A (which happens 99.99%
of the time), when you try to Apply the Order to your WLs, the Plate 1x1 in N/A
is found/proposed, but when you then search your order in your WLs, the Plate
1x1 in N/A in your WL isn’t found/shown.

First, I seem to remember it worked before.  Anyone else?

Then, it’s counter-intuitive relatively to how the “reverse” searches, searching
a WL in stores or using EasyBuy or Auto-select, work, and it’s not how the “other”
search, Apply Order, works.

So, bug?  Feature?  Who cares?
