I've been bagging up a load of parts for selling, and I seem to have two versions of http://www.brickset.com/parts/?part=329726 (33 3x4 slope)

The colour is black, but my bulk (300 new bricks) have a smooth surface. Some of the others, which seem to have been parted out from sets have a rough surface. Anyone know about this or why this is? Did Lego make a change to the moulds at some point?

A couple of years ago, when a bunch of the roof slope moulds were getting to the end of their useful life, Design Lab decided that it would be a good idea if all slopes (roof & curved) had a matching smooth look, and started making the new roof slope moulds with a smooth texture (it was also better for sticker adhesion); a short while after they had made the change, they decided it didn't work too well after all, and reversed the change, back to textured roof slopes. It does mean that there are a mixture of the different types in circulation, & in LEGO's brick store, and it's going to be a while until all the temporary smooth roof slopes stop popping up in sets.

^ Good find. Thanks. I'm trying to fathom whether its good that I've got 300 of these or not??? Guess if I sell them I'll just declare them as the smooth type so there are no disappointed buyers. Cheers.

Can't find this torso or legs/hips on BL. Any help is greatly appreciated!

ColoradoBricks · January 2014

@mrbradford, Legs are these

Hi: Received several of these doors in a bulk pack...What type of door frame do I need for this door? Thanks,

Steve

oldtodd33 · February 2014

This one! http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=3581
By the way, there is no door "frame" for this, just the brick that holds it.

ColoradoBricks · February 2014

@LTCSZ , usually those do not have a frame and are hinged with a Brick, Modified 1 x 1 x 2 with Shutter Holder

- Nevermind, just replied to the first page.

tam · February 2014

This is another older bionicles portion -looks more like a vehicle part than a Titan -but could even be someone's personal creation. Any ideas if it has a part number?

oldtodd33 · February 2014

^ It looks like part of this guy. http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?S=8596-1

edgarallanpoe1422 · February 2014

Can anyone discern anything from this?

andhe · February 2014

^I see a plane nose, a whole lot of grey and a ~~mysterious stranger~~ (Sorry getting my pyschic wires crossed there).

plasmodium · February 2014

^^Tip it all out and let us get a better view. ;-)

Thank you ^

mooman66 · February 2014

Hey all. I managed to score a holiday train in a large lot, but I'm having a bit of trouble figuring out which part moulds to use. Is the black inverted roof tile used on the engine smooth or rough? Does the underside of the 1x6 bricks have solid or tubular supports? I have so many pieces and I just can't narrow it down from the manual. Thanks!

Joseph · February 2014

^ At least for my copy, the inverted bricks are rough and the 1x6 bricks (the ones I checked in the engine that is) have the tubular supports.

mooman66 · February 2014

Thanks @joseph! I have enough pieces to go either option, but I appreciate accuracy. May I PM if I have another question?

dneul · February 2014

Who are these and from what set do they come from?

y2josh · February 2014

It's hard to make out the detailing on the pilot's helmet, but it looks like Wedge Antilles (likely from #6212). The next one is a shadow stormtrooper, then two sandtroopers. The bottom row is a couple of clones and then a stormtrooper. I'm not familiar enough with the clones to ID a set, but the sandtroopers and stormtroopers are in multiple different sets. The sandtroopers pre-date #9490 as they have the 'clean' print and orange pauldron, but they could be from any sandtrooper set prior to that.

dneul · February 2014

Thank you. You were correct for wedge. I was able to locate him...

Joseph · February 2014

No problem; and yes, do feel free to message me if you have other questions @mooman66!

ThaVillain · February 2014

So i came across a lego find on craigslist and wanna know whats in it. The pics are kinda vague, but any help appreciated. No price was listed, whats a good price to offer? Thanks everyone!

plasmodium · February 2014

Hi, just off the bat I can spot some minifigures exclusive to #7914 and #7913. Also in the middle picture I can definitely see #7748.
It might help if your willing to tip it out/spread it out a bit so we can see more of what's in there.

For future reference, there's a whole thread where you can post your pictures and people will try and identify what you've got. :-)

ecmo47 · February 2014

I see dragon wings from #7048. The blue Rock Monster is from the Power Miner series and was in 4 sets (#8707, #8961, #8958, or #8964). Also there are Bionicles in there. The clear plastic wings in the top middle are from #8695 or #6228.

CCC · February 2014

^^ From the wording, it is not his yet to spread out. It's finding out what it might be, to come up with an offer.

Ah, of course. That'll teach me to actually read the post next time. :-P

TheBrickLadd · February 2014

Got a few more figs I'm unsure of their names... Anyone got any idea?

ljames28 · February 2014

Asajj Ventress on the left, a messed up Onaconda Farr in the middle, a space guy I don't recognise, and then on the right is Senate commando.

TheBrickLadd · February 2014

thanks @ljames28 :)

Bumblepants · February 2014

^^ I think if you switch the heads on the two in the middle they will both be corrected.

plasmodium · February 2014

Yeah, the orange head and black body in the middle one are from a Space Police III set. (the green head and other body are, as said above, Onaconda Farr)
