| This site is already awesome. I've been finding some old sets that I had
long forgotten about, just by finding a few unique parts in our 30+ year old
box of lego still at my parent's house.
I found a wedge shaped classic space part in the box, and from that I was able
to find that it only existed in a few sets. From there, I was able to find the
Sonar Transmitting Cruiser, something that I would have completely forgotten
about had it not been for the uniqueness of that part. I was in fact, able to
rebuild it despite all the pieces being scattered about in the old lego table
for 30 years, with numerous visiting and grandchildren messing around with it
for all this time - with only 2 substituted parts.
Tl;Dr
Anyhow, on to the ACTUAL suggestion
I would like to be able to do a multi part search. Ie if I have part 3xxx (colour
A), 5yyy (colour B) and ... 6zzz (colour X/Y/Z), which sets (if any) contain
all of those pieces? Even partial results would be particularly useful.
This could be implemented perhaps with a search limit of up to 5 peices at a
time, or more depending on an acceptable level of load on the server.

I just saw your post.

It's a not widely known feature. This subject comes up occasionally on the
forum so I kept the link handy for moments like this.
Your Welcome.
