  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?

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.

Not specifically within super-heroes but elsewhere there are quite a few that
just differ by having a cape (or not), e.g.

Within Ninjago there are a lot where it's just a scabbard/armour or other
neck/back accessory that makes it different, e.g.

  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,

The set is 71741 Ninjago City Gardens. A very large set with almost 1150 lots.

Please help, because I am losing business not having these parts listed.

  Good morning,

thanks to whoever has the answer to my question.

Can I with BL see if I have all the pieces in my inventory to build a specific
set?
if the answer is yes, how do i figure it out ?


TY

TANIA & DANIELE

You can sort of do it from your Iventory page: on the right hand side in the
"Search my inventory" list there is a "Parts from set" option. Using that you
can see all the parts in your inventory that are from a particular set number.

However it doesn't deal with quantities, just lots, and you'd still need
to go through the set inventory manually to work out what other parts you are
missing.

Despite that I have used it on occasion just to give me a rough idea of how far
away I might be from building a set just from my inventory.

Why would someone try and sell keyring parts as regular tho? That seems really
sketchy.

Yeah it seems unlikely and the colour of the print does look a little off (could
be just the picture though) so perhaps it's a fake. Seems odd though that
the seller would not have spotted that stud type before listing it for sale.

There is a Krennic keyring so it could be that?

So for the first time ever I had an order returned with a Royal Mail sticker
on it indicating the reason for return as "addresee gone away".

I've tried to contact the buyer but had no response in over 2 weeks and the
message has not even been read.

I feel like I should refund the buyer but it's hardly my fault the buyer
has "gone away" so I feel a bit loathed to refund the full amount including the
postage so was thinking about just refunding the value of the parts.

Just wondering what others would do/have done in this circumstance?

Thanks,
Steve

  Hello Bricklink Community

I bought a relatively large Lego Technik model a few years ago, sometime between
late 2012 and late 2015, it cost between 150 and 250 euros. I mean it would have
been a yellow construction vehicle, an excavator or something similar.

For some reason, I never built it completely (see pictures) and the rest of the
parts have also disappeared. My own research as to which model it is has not
unearthed....

So I ask you: can you tell from the pictures and my information which model it
is?

Have fun guessing and THANK YOU for your help!

Do you know about some list of the bags from this set?

I've just opened a sealed version of this set (late Xmas present!) and the
list of contents as follows:

Inside the main box there is a smaller white box (numbered 6187649) which contains:

1x Green 16x32 baseplate
1x LBG 8x16 plate
3x bag "1"
7x bag "2"
5x bag "3"

Then loose inside the main box is:

1x 10255 instruction manual (6207089 is printed on the plastic wrapper)
1x Green 32x32 baseplate
5x bag "4"
7x bag "5"
7x bag "6"

So I make that 34 bags in total.

From the reviews of the set here:
https://brickset.com/sets/10255-1/Assembly-Square

"The box contains more than thirty bags numbered in six sections. A separate,
smaller white box contains Bags 1-3, a light grey 8x16 plate, and both baseplates.
The remaining Bags 4-6 are loose in the main box."

So it looks like it should be 6 main big bags plus 2 loose baseplates and 1 loose
plate.

Hardly a priority development item but it would be great to get the maximum length
of the "Slogan" and "Announcement" fields in Store Settings increased from the
meagre 50 & 80 characters to something a bit more useful like 200 characters.

Thanks
