7314-1 (Inv) Recon-Mech RP
186 Parts, 1 Minifigure, 2001
Sets: Space: Life on Mars

* Add 4 Part 2429c01 Light Gray Hinge Plate 1 x 4 Swivel (2429 / 2430)

Comments from Submitter:
In the official instructions for this set, on pages 6, 11, 18 and 19 it shows needing one light gray "Hinge Plate 1 x 4 Swivel" for building each arm and each leg (so you need 4 total).

No, it doesn't. It shows two light gray 1x2 plates between the red hinge
plates on each of those pages.

Comments from Submitter:
16 not 14

See the alternates section of the inventory and the inventory note:

Redesigned during production.

There are at least 2 different versions of instructions for this set. The differences
for the second version are indicated in this inventory in the Alternate Items
section with Match ID 99.

Quick overview of redesign: In the hinge mechanism that opens the bridge two
1 x 10 Technic bricks replace a pair of plates with dual pin holders, which along
with additional parts are then used to reinforce the edges of the ship. Two white
1 x 10 plates and four dark bluish gray 3 x 3 wedge plates are also added in
various places to strengthen the build. A number of other parts are repositioned.

I first thought we would have a case of redesign but:


  * Delete 2 Part 87079 Dark Blue Tile 2 x 4

That would remove all these parts, and they _are_ in the set _and_ in the inventory
in the linked digital instructions.

So I didn’t check the rest….

Looks like this request cannot be accepted as is. But there are differences between
the Bricklink inventory and the current Lego inventory so it looks like there
was indeed a redesign. https://www.bricklink.com/r3/inventorycomparison/main.page?sourceB=1&invB=60349-1&sourceA=0&invA=60349-1

  Can someone who has a chrome silver modified tile with groove & lip tell me if
there are Lego markings on the bottom part? And if so , what is the marking?

I need to know if all chrome silver lego parts have markings or if some are made
without them. It's hard to tell on parts which have no studs to determine
if they are fakes.

thanks

Hi,
What part number are you talking about ?

has a new mold 4304. Please add this.

The only difference is the inside of the bottom stud holder which is now partly
hollow which accounts for a weight decrease of ~0.03 grams.

According to New Elementary there is a functional difference between the old
and new mold: https://www.newelementary.com/2023/08/lego-brickheadz-sonic-review-sets-40627.html

  Personally, I would have said it’s the EU country where BL is registered for
IOSS… but I don’t know where that is (Danemark?).

Now, as the IOSS number is a valid EU VAT number, it should start with the two-letter
code of the country of registration.
So, DK xxxxx would indicate Danemark, FR xxxx France, etc.

Now to figure out what country IM is for

IM is not for a country. It is the prefix used for all IOSS numbers. At least
according to what I found. But if I remember correctly Bricklink registered their
IOSS number in Denmark.

- 98138pb381 - Tile, Round 1 x 1 with Orange Fruit Slice Pattern

They look quite similar to me. Can someone explain the difference or make a picture
from both parts side by side?

98138pb262 Tile, Round 1 x 1 with Orange Fruit Slice Pattern
Parts: Tile, Round, Decorated {Bright Light Orange}
[P=98138pb381,110]

They do have different LEGO elementnumbers and design numbers.

ELEMENT 6361440
DESIGN 80060
FLAT TILE 1X1, ROUND, NO. 177
2022

ELEMENT 6435103
DESIGN 103352
FLAT TILE 1X1, ROUND, NO. 259
2023

One print smaller, and the other covering the entire tile?

A grabbed these images from Jay's Brick Blog and New Elementary and there
seem to be slight differences.

~Jen

Looks like I missed the existence of 98138pb262 when I submitted 98138pb381 to
the catalog. I don't own any of the sets that have 98138pb262 so I can't
compare them. But here is a photo of the one from my Botanical Garden set:

The new number is molded in Bo-Katan's helmet in set 75361. Comparing it
to the other helmet in the set (which has the old number 87610) I did not notice
any significant differences between the two that would warrant a new catalog
entry.

4085d Plate, Modified 1 x 1 with Open O Clip Thick (Vertical Grip)

as part of the build.

So 14 of the main ones and 2 of the other ones. I checked the parts list and
4085d is listed as an alternate part, so the question arises: Can I still list
it as complete even if 2 of the 16 yellow clips are from the kind listed as alternate?

Thanks!

Yes. The fact that 4085d is listed as an alternate means that the set would originally
have come with either 4085b or 4085d or a mix of the two variants.

I found the new 3498 in my set 41757. It looks exactly the same as the old one.
The plastic does feel like it might be a little bit more flexible but it is barely
noticeable.

40243 Stairs Spiral Step

The catalog image for 40243 shows only the top and I don't have one in my
collection to compare it so I don't know if there are any differences at
the bottom. Comparing mine to the catalog photos I can see that 78131 has the
mold pip in a different position in the circle where it connects to the step.
There is also a small indentation in the raised edge of the circle where it connects
to the step. I've attached photos of the top and bottom so that anyone who
has 40243 can check for differences.

Thanks for your photos. Looking at the bottom I see that the supports connecting
the inner and outer circle are a bit thicker in the new one. And I guess I should
also have checked all the parts in my set. I had noticed that Brickset listed
a new mold number for this part, so when I opened my set I immediately opened
bag 2 to see if that's what I got. Now that I got to building bag 2 I noticed
that I also got two of the old 40243 in addition to the six 78131.

Set 60363 has 3338 molded on the part. I did not notice any differences with
the old mold other than the fact that it has a different number.

Maybe a different sprue mark position?

That is correct. The old one has it on the top. The new one has it on the side
near the bottom.
