I would have to agree with you TigerMoth. They look very much the same but just not quite right but saying that I may just put it away just incase. Thanks all

I can't prove it, but I also think that whole wheel-cutter-wheel thing in the lawnmower is one piece. It seems to be held onto the bottom by clips.

As I said, that seam suggests that it's not a LEGO part. TLG don't do things like that - it's one of the reasons it's expensive.

You didn't give us any idea of scale. Have you tried putting anything in the hole? Like a Technic pin - when it's worth remembering that they'll always "click" home, otherwise they pin's left stressed and that makes it illegal.

However, as you say, if you keep it, you can throw it away later; it doesn't work the other way around!

Sorry to take so long... had internet connection issues.....

Here is a 322 Samsonite Educational Gear Set, and although I don't have a better image, you can just make out the string in the lower right of the image.



So yes, that is original to this set.   Now whether or not that was the same one used in the European Pull Toy, I doubt it.  Most non-specialized LEGO parts were produced at their Samsonite Loveland Colorado plant.  I don't think this intertwined string would qualify as a specialty LEGO part.  

Thanks for the reply and the photo.  I don't believe the part is the same one used in the pull toy either, I just noticed the string looked similar.  I am glad to see that this was a LEGO / Samsonite part, I almost discounted it as a homemade piece.

You do not happen to have a part count for this set?

Thanks Again
Joey

Na, doesn't fit lego at all and to be honest....its in the bin now! Thanks again.

Hello everyone. Can anyone tell me what sets these are part of?

Thanks so much...

The helicopter top is from Alien Conquest. I don't think the first picture is Lego but does look to be part of a General Grievous. The black cockpit only came in 2 sets here.  http://bricksetforum.com/discussion/71/how-do-you-display-minifigs/p1

@Trev5374 The second piece is the "basket" part of 6037, the Witch's Windship, from the Fright Knights Castle series: http://brickset.com/sets/6037-1/Witch-s-Windship

Hi, first post. Putting together all my sets prior to selling, and have some pieces that I can't find/identify on Peeron.

Does anyone know if these Shell bricks are from the same set, or different ones?
If you look at the undersides, you'll see that one has two supports (on pillars 2 and 4, flush with the bottom edge) and one has a central support (which stops short of the bottom edge.)

Looking at the pieces I have left over, it's impossible to tell where they're from - I got a load of Lego from my big cousin in the very early 80s, but it seems to be a lot of incomplete sets.

oldtodd33

@Jram  That print only came in one set according to BL.  http://alpha.bricklink.com/pages/clone/catalogitem.page?P=3009pb156#T=C

Can anyone identify any sets in this pic? It's not much to go on, I know. Debating buying the whole bin. $200 CDN seem too much?

Aanchir

The ship hull is from #7075 and the space shuttle nose is from #4467. NOt sure about the rest.

SprinkleOtter

There's a 3182 Airport airplane nose in there. Can't tell much from the picture. I wouldn't say that $200 is too much, if stuff is complete.

Came64

There's a part of the für Helikopter #7206 .

MattsWhat

Image is too small to go to town identifying stuff, but at that kind of money I have one question -  are the minifigures in there? Although city minifigures are not overly valuable, a family who have kept them all in the box tends to fit well with one that won't have lost every piece smaller than 2x4 in my experience. 

flord

Thanks for the responses. Waiting to hear back from the seller.

Any help with id or set

The middle head is this. http://alpha.bricklink.com/pages/clone/catalogitem.page?P=3626bpb0072#T=S&C=86&O={"color":86}

The two yellow heads are old castle heads. http://alpha.bricklink.com/pages/clone/catalogitem.page?P=3626bpx120&idColor=3#T=S&C=3&O={"color":3}

But Bricklink isn't always right.

MattsWhat

Is that post-it an existing part? I can't find it on casual looking so I thought I would throw it out to you knowledgable lot.
Edit for clarification: not from a set photo, this is an image from lego club email.

It's a printed 1x1 tile, but yes, it's a brand-new print for the 2016 LEGO Friends sets. It also appears in Olivia's Exploration Car.

MattsWhat

Thanks @Aanchir I skimmed through the pictures of friends but couldn't see it. Really fun piece, hope it turns up on B&P. 

NicksBricks

Looking for helping identifying this part.  Thank you.

After scouring the bricklink catalog I am still unable to identify this Lego element. Please help!



Some background info:
I purchased this piece from a wonderful Lego shop called AA Place in Hong Kong. In addition to a great selection of new and retired sets they have a wall of individual elements available for purchase and that's where I found this one. The store is very reputable and I do not believe they would knowingly sell any knock off elements. It has "Lego" moulded at the bottom of the slope on the top of the brick. I could not find an element ID anywhere but the bottom has what looks like "2-03" moulded next to one of the tubes.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help!

ColoradoBricks

It is a fabuland piece: http://alpha.bricklink.com/pages/clone/catalogitem.page?P=787

Does anyone know the part number for the 1x1 quad slope that I think is new this year and features in some of the Nexus Knights sets?

The solid colours are 22388; the transparent ones are probably something else.

I thought I was pretty good at scouring the parts catalogue at Bricklink but this one has me stumped.  Hopefully the ninjas here can help.

Oldfan

This one?  If not, a picture from a different angle might be helpful, too.

sdetsky

^ Thank you.  Not sure how I missed that.  It's odd that in a bulk buy where every part is from an identified set from 2012-present that a random piece contained in one set from 1994 was included!

Adelec

Does anyone recognise this? Is it even Lego? I found it with a small batch of batman Lego. But I can't find it in any sets. There is a mark in it, but very difficult to see. May be an 11 or z. Any help would be great.

Bumblepants

^My guess is that it is not Lego. Does it have a Lego brand marking and part number anywhere on it? If not it probably came from something else. Could be a Hero Factory/Bionicle thing but I am not that familiar with that system.

andhe

It looks like the nose cone from batmobile on the animated series 'Batman: The brave and the bold'. I imagine it fires off the toy, but I'm not aware of any lego sets from that series.

Adelec

Ok thanks, I will mark it down as non lego and bin it. 

Aanchir

Sometimes if you come across a Batman-looking part that doesn't quite look like LEGO, it might be from one of the McDonalds toys based on the LEGO Batman video game. I've seen those turn up in mixed LEGO lots before. But yeah, this one just looks non-LEGO.

SprinkleOtter

I found some CMF stands without the LEGO logo on the studs today. That means that they are fakes, right?

oldtodd33

Yes.

SprinkleOtter

Kriff. That means four of the decently valuable minifigures I found are fakes...

oldtodd33

Most likely. Check the torso studs to see if they have the Lego logo on them.

Thanks so much...

The dimples on the studs surely mean it's not a Lego piece.

it looked like a Halo Mega Bloks piece but I couldn't find one that matched.

SprinkleOtter

I just got something similar. Its called "Dragon Universe" or something like that.

SprinkleOtter

I also have an unprinted clear TIE fighter canopy- is that a misprint?

Lyichir

SprinkleOtter said:

No. This set had an unprinted one. Possibly others as well: http://brickset.com/sets/4888-1/Underwater-Exploration

MattsWhat

I don't have a part to identify but do have a a question. Going through a random bulk lot and have come across 18 white 1x4 with hinge upper only. No bottoms at all. Part number is 2430 (written on). Any suggestions as the quantity without finding a single bottom half?!

oldtodd33

If I remember correctly, they used to come assembled in the old sets but don't any longer. Which leads me to believe it was part of a PAB wall element. 

MattsWhat

^I guess they could have come from pab, but nothing else in the lot suggests that, no other parts in large quantities. They are fantastic for mocing as they fit into hollow studs (like on a jumper) but they previous owner really didn't appear to be an afol.

TigerMoth

It sounds like one bag from the Taj Mahal. There's 36 of both 2429 and 2430. These days, they come assembled; until about 2008, the time of the Taj, they didn't.

oldtodd33

^ Except he stated he doesn't have the other half. Which pretty much negates the pieces he has coming in a set unless they were separated from each other and the other half is lost.
