Was looking through the list of gear not yet inventoried, and saw a catagory
titled "puzzle".

The thought immediately entered my mind, "Should I inventory it?"

Hmm this will be easy.
 
Gear No: 4659585  Name: DUPLO Puzzle Zebra
  
4659585 DUPLO Puzzle Zebra
Gear: Puzzle: DUPLO
Only three parts!

Ooowwwee...
 
Gear No: 5007070  Name: Minifigure Faces Puzzle
* 
5007070 Minifigure Faces Puzzle
Gear: Puzzle
1000 Parts!!!

Would it be right to inventory a puzzle?

Pro, when you are missing a peice just buy it.

Con, think of the work!!

Should I try to do it?

  The blue Emmet part id 15443 is fake.
As some know area 2018 6-7 types of headgears and hairs popped up in 5 similar
colors , all with same partnr 95222 inside. With the lego logo and copyright.
I never checked then the partnr, as it had a logo, but the color blue was a bit
off color, also more friction then other hairs.

You're saying you have a part with the Lego logo on it that is nevertheless
fake?

I had it, but as die hard collector I've put it out of my hands. But yes
sadly. We live in a corrupt world.

I have no interest in these things at all but if it has the Lego logo why would
it be a fake?
Prototypes are prototypes for a reason, they can be (slightly) different of shape,
color, consistency etc.

No these are called qparts, non production parts. Prototypes nearly never having
a partnumber. I've seen only +- 30 prototypes and only like 2 had a partnumber.
These are added on the very final stage.

But you missed a part on my first message. There 4 different types of headgear
and 2 hairs that ALL having the same partnumber 95222. Which is impossible as
every part have a different ID. All 6 these parts came in blue, dark blue, brown
and lb gray. Slightly different off color and they having issues pulling them
of a head. Genuine lego qparts don't have this issue. You also don't
find this many same colors on different modern parts. Only red or lb gray as
they test the new mould in these colors. These popped up 5 years ago. Not much
info to be found. I'm sure TLG is aware of this.

Wow, isn’t that like counterfeit money? That could be illegal to own!
