  Hello everyone, this is my first ever post. Long time lego fanatic and have now
hit the bulk buy stage! Recently got the Tallneck and several Modulars and have
jumped right back into the hobby after many years.

So my question for you all is as follows...

I bought a bulk set of used Lego locally in the UK and found this creation in
it.
I thought it might be the Lego Ideas Exo Suit but it doesn't seem the same.
I have searched the database extensively and cannot find what it is. Can anyone
identify this? Or is it just an excellent Moc build that got unlucky and thrown
out for sale?

I have uploaded two images because there is some really creative use of parts.
The join on the mech harness appears to be cowboy pistols! Lovely.

Thanks everyone,

Nikabrix

Maybe this?

Does anyone have an recommendations or experiences of wall-mounting this set?

Thanks,

I didn't take the time to shop for your set specifically, but Wicked Bricks
has lots of great stuff like you are looking for and I think they are based in
the UK. I have been happy with stuff I bought there.

Thanks, yes I have some of the Wicked Brick stands too (which are great) but
they only do a limited range of wall-mounts mainly for minifigures and helmets,
nothing suitable for the gunship sadly.

I've since found a couple of possibilities on etsy that may work but nothing
directly designed for the gunship.

  Hi. I am adding to my Iron Man collection and have noticed (myself and from other
threads) that sh612 and sh649 are the same figure but catalogued separately because
of the accessories included... are there any other known 'duplicate'
figures which are given different catalogue numbers due to add-ons please? Thanks
in advance :0)

Not specifically within super-heroes but elsewhere there are quite a few that
just differ by having a cape (or not), e.g.
 
Minifig No: sw0163  Name: Kit Fisto
* 
sw0163 (Inv) Kit Fisto
Minifigures: Star Wars: Star Wars Episode 3
 
Minifig No: sw0422  Name: Kit Fisto with Cape

Minifigures: NINJAGO: Tournament of Elements
 
Minifig No: njo126  Name: Chen - Cape
*

Within Ninjago there are a lot where it's just a scabbard/armour or other
neck/back accessory that makes it different, e.g.
 
Minifig No: njo386  Name: Cole - Sons of Garmadon with Scabbard
*

  Hello everybody,

We've temporarily changed the date for the Spring category move from May
1 to July 1. If you recall, last year it was set at April 1, but going forward
we plan to stick with May 1.

Please refer to this page for a list of all items changing in this cycle:

https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=2520

We had previously announced this in a newsletter, but we have since added a number
of other items to the list.

There is a relatively new category that we are beginning to populate:

https://www.bricklink.com/catalogListOld.asp?catType=P&catString=1215

It is called Human Jewelry, and we will be moving several bracelets and rings
there - all Parts that were previously considered to be Gear items.

The 2 changes with the most marketplace effect are these:
 
Part No: 32606  Name: Plant Flower with Bar and Small Pin Hole
* 
32606 Plant Flower with Bar and Small Pin Hole
Parts: Plant
 
Part No: 11609  Name: Plate, Round 1 x 1 with Star and Small Pin Hole
* 
11609 Plate, Round 1 x 1 with Star and Small Pin Hole
Parts: Plate, Round
which will be moved out of the Friends category and into non-themed generic categories.
A large majority of the uses of these parts are outside the Friends theme, especially
in recent years.

This is certainly a step in the right direction - the sooner that "Friends" category
is removed the better if you ask me.

Most of the items in there should be under minifigure accessory (handbags, frying
pan, medical equipment etc.) or a new category "Mini Doll, Hair Accessory" for
the various hairpins/sunglasses. Also some plants (flowers) and animals (starfish
etc.)

  For two days now, I've been trying to part out a large set to my store inventory,
but it keeps failing. I am unable to list these parts.
The set is 71741 Ninjago City Gardens. A very large set with almost 1150 lots.
After clicking "Verify items", nothing happens for 10 minutes and then I get
a 504 connection time-out.
Please help, because I am losing business not having these parts listed.

"Due to the massive number of lines (1000+) in the inventory of this set, the
BrickLink system will time out during the part out process. You must part out
the set in two different halves."
