I bought a large amount of Lego. Some are still partially assembled, see the
photos.
Can anyone tell me which set this is from?
I can then look for instructions and make it complete again.

The white and orange Mech/Bionicle build appears to be a mixture of buildable
figure/Bionicle parts rather than one specific build.

| Hi,
I am trying to complete my old Lego sets that are mostly from the 1980s, and
created several wanted lists (1 per set) in order to buy the missing parts.
Question:
How can I be sure that I am buying the (era)correct part?
Example: set "6951 Robot Command Center" from 1984 is missing 1x "Brick,
Round 2 x 2 with Axle Hole" = part 3941 in White.
However, the new part has a 'bottom ring' visible and the original parts
did not have that
(https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=3941&C=1#T=C&C=1).
So when using the 'buy all' option or selection all wanted lists that
I want to buy parts for, how do I know I get the correct part and not the newer
version?
Or has this option fully disappeared from Bricklink now?
In that case: what parts-buying site does still make the distinction between
versions of a part?
Many thanks for your help.
Kind regards,
Menno

Not really. There are loads of minor or unimportant variations that have never
been individually catalogued, just mentioned in notes.
|

Thank you all for the helpful comments.
I was under the impression that as there is a clear photo of the four different
variations AND there are an equal number of different Item Numbers, they should
be (have been) easy distinguishable...
Also, visually they are different - try to combine original era ones with new
ones and see how (awful) it looks.
Again, all thanks for your replies!
Kind regards,
Menno

Some sellers (like myself, though I'm probably too far away for you) sell
in a niche of vintage parts.
I have many parts with notations as to decade made and even what set its pulled
from. I'm sure you can find someone in Europe doing this, perhaps searching
the word "vintage" in shops that interest you. I know that works in mine
Good luck

That difference never was recognized in the catalogue by different entries, only
by a note as it is now.
You ALLWAYS had to clarify with the seller for such variants.

| Hi,
I am trying to complete my old Lego sets that are mostly from the 1980s, and
created several wanted lists (1 per set) in order to buy the missing parts.
Question:
How can I be sure that I am buying the (era)correct part?
Example: set "6951 Robot Command Center" from 1984 is missing 1x "Brick,
Round 2 x 2 with Axle Hole" = part 3941 in White.
However, the new part has a 'bottom ring' visible and the original parts
did not have that
(https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=3941&C=1#T=C&C=1).
So when using the 'buy all' option or selection all wanted lists that
I want to buy parts for, how do I know I get the correct part and not the newer
version?
Or has this option fully disappeared from Bricklink now?
In that case: what parts-buying site does still make the distinction between
versions of a part?
Many thanks for your help.
Kind regards,
Menno

but what about hands?
Should I be looking for complete minifigs? Or can is it best to find some shop
that has many heads and "torso assemblies" to get the hands I need?
This is my first time dipping into the secondary market of minifigs, so I feel
like I'm in way over my head even for a relatively simple task.

Start with looking at the minifigs from this set to establish some of the available
skin tone colours to search for:-
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemInv.asp?S=40634-1&viewItemType=M
It contains quite a few different skin tone heads with matching hands. If you
look at the part breakdown of the minifigs you will find the torsos are quite
reasonably priced even if only buying for the hands themselves but once you've
established the colour hands you need to match your heads you can also buy them
separately:-

Welcome to bricklink!
The best way may to be to do some searches like “medium nougat head”, “reddish
brown head”, etc and look thru the options looking at ones that look right to
you and are in your budget then adding them to a wanted list, then for the hands
go to the hand page and choose the colours you want and qty and add them to the
same wanted list. Then navigate to your wanted list and choose buy all and look
thru the options of who has the most for sale that you want
