Is "he" City or a subtheme thereof?

560Heliport

No.

Ohh! Ooh! I got it! I never get it. That is all. I don't want to give any more clues as it'll get too obvious.

Is it a CMF?

Aha got him!! Thx for indulging me gang! 
I didnt see any of his parts/accessories in the haul which made it all the more difficult.

This minifigure does something that I'm sure you are familiar with, but a lot of Bricksetters might say, "Really? You can do that?"

Yep, quite an activity up here in MN 😀😀 I havent been in years however ☃️🧊🎣🥶🐟🐟

@gelkster  Unless you were trying to make finding him a game and you wanted to find it quickly, try searching for him on BL in the color guide. I took a guess at the color and it took me just about one minute to find him. With minifigures of uncommon color, they are easier to find that way. If it was black or white you'd have a tougher time of it.

Yeah I wasnt in a real hurry to know (I have another half-gallon bag but I don't wanna overwhelm you guys)  & I like guessing games & thought it'd be a.fun way to implement that.

In fact oldtodd33 I considered asking you specifically not to answer too fast cuz I know you're AWESOME at this!!! 😉👍

oldtodd33

Yeah, thanks for that. I'm not too good at being subtle. It's going to get harder for me to identify them as I don't keep up with all of the new prints though.

Yep that latest haul I got has mostly sets from just the past 5 yrs (& a few from 2020!) & I'm struggling cluelessly on the figs, which is why I saved ID-ing them for last.

Open the floodgates Gelkster! Let's ID some figs!

Please not one at a time though...

😂😂😂 I'll start slow & ramp up

gelkster

ok so I spent the last hour diving in & found quite a few, but here are 4 to begin with

Switchfoot55

Is this a "keep it a secret" game? Or can we post the findings directly?

Switchfoot55

I have them all ready to reveal if allowed... :)

gelkster

Kinda wanted it to be a game...🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

BTW you can see on the rightmost 2 torsos a degree of scrapes & chewing damage; unfortunately a LOT of parts (both mifigs & bricks) from the haul suffered the same fate & were discarded

Astrobricks

Gnarly 😳

If you want to make a game of it, we do have that one thread I pointed out :) We’ll just let @gelkster do all the part selection!

gelkster

That thread seems to be a game for everyone to guess the part; here I'd like brief, indirect/somewhat vague clues so I can eventually make a guess. 

I can see how the threads are similar, however 

Astrobricks

Maybe a Let’s Tease Gelkster thread :D

oldtodd33

So, can I start? I have a cute clue for one of them.

Better hurry before @560Heliport beats you to it!

oldtodd33

The bottom right torso with the chew marks doesn't seem to be made from the material as his description implies. Is that subtle enough? 

gelkster

Iron Man? I'm not into the Super Hero figs AT ALL

(BTW that was an excellent clue)

gelkster

gelkster

Iron Man Mark 47 armor since Beware the Vulture set was in there.

Good Lord there are nearly 40 Iron Man figs!!!
😫😫😫

oldtodd33

Am I the only one playing? Jump in everyone. The torso on the top right, as the old saying goes will never profit in his profession. 

oldtodd33

To move this along a bit. The torso top left is a baddie from one of Lego's longest running themes. 

Switchfoot55

I'm better are just telling the answer than coming up with a riddle for someone to figure it out...

The bottom left would fall into the same world as the bottom right. A sister-like figure to another more well known character. 

oldtodd33

^ @gelkster isn't Russian to identify this one.  

560Heliport

Top left torso is a uniform. Sort of.

gelkster

Lower left: Yelena Bolova from #76162

Of course she's 745/749 out of all Super Hero minifigs, & I didnt start at the end 😫😫😫

Is it NinjaGo?

oldtodd33

^ Yes! Good guess.

gelkster

green torso from #60140 Bulldozer Break-in or #60143 Auto Transport Heist.
My son nailed that one, I happened to show him a pic & he said he remembers all the 2017 Police sets.

I suppose the striped prison shirt should've tipped me.off

Hi! I’m new here; I hope I hit the right thread!

I passed my 80s/90s Lego to my kids. They like to play with the Town bicycles, so I wanted to purchase some for them. However, I couldn’t find the exact variant this bike (4719, red) on BrickLink:

The handle bar and kickstand are at an angle, so the bike can be leaned to a wall conveniently. But I can only find bikes with straight handle bars.

There are three Lego marks on the frame (inside the headlight and on both sides of the pedal axis), as well as the lettering “4 7 1 9” on the left side of the frame, and “1” on the right.

Does anyone know from which set this is … or where I can get more?

KungFuKenny

It looks to me that it is just this part…

https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=4719c01#T=C

except the ABS has been damaged and the handlebars are twisted sideways.  You can get more on Bricklink, but the handlebars likely will be undamaged and straight…

This was my first impression too, but doesn’t the red ABS turn yellow/white when you twist it? I can’t make sense of the kickstand twisting the opposite direction of the handle either.

Astrobricks

If it had been stepped on or otherwise flattened, the twist of the handlebars and kickstand would not necessarily be in the same direction.

Krishty

That makes sense! Thanks KungFuKenny and Astrobricks; guess I’ll buy a few new 4719 and flatten them then :D

Gently after hitting them with a heat gun for a minute :)

Krishty

Yes, I’ll do exactly that!

Here’s a close-up of the handle bar, and the fine edges show that it must have been twisted:



So I assume it was forgotten under a box over the summor or something like that … thanks a lot for your help!

gelkster

More to ruminate on for the weekend. Do the red torso & legs below it go together?

gelkster

Never mind on that last question, stumbled across him just now- Deadshot from #76053 Gotham Cty Cycle Chase

CCC

Other torsos are Han Solo (Solo), a female Mandalorian. Legs are Nexo Knights soldier and clockwork robot.

Red? Looks bright orange to me (until your follow up post).

560Heliport

Looks more Dark Orange on my phone.
