Hi, I'm updating PAB2BSX database [again], and came across some "uncertain" things, can anyone clarify what are the BrickLink IDs of the following PAB items:

1)
6045952 - 10498 - Shell A 3M Ball Snap Ø10.2
http://customization.lego.com/en-US/pab/default.aspx?itemid=6045952

6045953 - 10498 - Shell A 3M Ball Snap Ø10.2
http://customization.lego.com/en-US/pab/default.aspx?itemid=6045953

I suspect one of those 90639/40/41/xx-s, but haven't seen one and the PAB image is very "transparent" so hard for me to be 100%

2)
6044729 - 13971 - Rim Narrow Ø18x7 W Hole Ø4.8
http://customization.lego.com/en-US/pab/default.aspx?itemid=6044729

I suspect, this is:
http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=56902

but again, I'm not 100% sure [just 99...]

Thanks

No problem.

6045952 and 6045953 essentially 90641, as far as I can tell. The newer Design ID makes me think it's a new molded variant of the same size and shape, but currently Bricklink doesn't differentiate between them, and I don't expect it to-- if anything, they'll probably just list the new Design ID as an alternate part number. The transparent color of the first part is an error-- it is not the first time this has happened with PAB thumbnails.

As confirmation, the sets that include those parts in the Customer Service database are currently listed as including 90641 on Bricklink. So either Bricklink will treat the parts as equivalent or (if there are in fact visible, meaningful differences discovered) list them as alternates in their sets' inventories.

13971 cannot be confirmed in this way because no customer service inventories currently include that Design ID. But chances are your hunch is correct. Again, likely a remold of the older part.

EDIT: Looking at the rotating thumbnail on PAB again, there ARE visible differences between 13971 and 56902, so chances are once it shows up in sets and people realize that it is a unique part, it will get its own Bricklink part number. Currently, however, there's no unique part number on Bricklink for it.

BTW, your post also helped me-- I didn't realize it was possible to link to individual pick-a-brick items!

Aaargh! Silly me, I should have remembered I can look up what set used that part here on BrickSet, then match by BrickLink's inventory...

Uhm... Yea, though the "difference" can be an usual "Photosop" effect and final part - even with new mold - being the same as "old" one...
Anyway BL tends to merge similar parts (like 1x1 headlight with/without notch, etc.), so, I'll match it to 56902 then see if there will be a big difference.
My main concern was the right size... The 18x7 (PAB) vs. 18x8 (BL).

:-)
I usually have to dig for those deeplinks to get stuff automated the most efficient way... I think for that I had to go to packet capturing, but I'm not 100% sure now.

Actually this one:
http://customization.lego.com/en-US/pab/service/getBrick.aspx?itemid=6044729

will give you an even more "bareboned" version of the part details, without the flash (so picture) and so on, but very good to get the "important" data only, like price, name, colors, item/group ID, etc.

Diggydoes · March 2013

When BL´ing CC the last month i´ve placed a order at s@h for the white window frame and this is what they´ve sent me:
Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

So is this basically this: http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=4132
or this: http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=60598
Since i want to have it as a 100% accurate set it matters to me if the original CC came with windows that i´ve received or with another one?!?!?!Heeeeeeelp

oldtodd33 · March 2013

Yes, That looks to be correct. The other part you have has hollow studs on top and CC uses solid studs.

Diggydoes · March 2013

@oldtodd33,i wasn't sure since BL shows a picture where all the studs are completely solid,the ones i have have those "holes"on the studs on the corners?!

oldtodd33 · March 2013

@Diggydoes I have gotten home now and took my CC apart to check your part against mine and the ones you have are absolutely correct.

Jezzatheshed · March 2013

Bought a box of lego and in it is a Black 32x 32 baseplate. Ive never seen one before -any idea what set its from?

CapnRex101 · March 2013

According to Bricklink, a black 32x32 baseplate has never been released, perhaps it is a faded brown? http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=3811

Jezzatheshed · March 2013

^Made me look closer, its a blue plate really well sprayed black, the lot did come from another collector- it actually matchs really well with two 32 x16 blacks that were in the same box, makes me think it was an advanced MOC at some point.

madforLEGO · March 2013

Maybe someone made a huge Blacktron base or something

samiam391 · March 2013

Blue baseplate with black sprayed on?

Sounds like a nice oil rig MOC... probably a BP model.

jigglypuff · March 2013

Hi all,

I know this is kind of dumb, but I really like the Belville fairies. I just Bricklinked all nine of them.

I'm hoping that you can help me identify the correct color wands that each fairy needs. Thumbelina #5964 does not seem to have a wand, and I already have the wand from #5823. The wand is listed on brickset.com as a part for #7579, too.

So that leaves identifying the wand colors from these sets:

http://brickset.com/detail/?Set=5808-1
http://brickset.com/detail/?Set=5824-1
http://brickset.com/detail/?Set=5825-1 (the wand that the fairy is holding)
http://brickset.com/detail/?Set=5805-1
http://brickset.com/detail/?Set=5827-1
http://brickset.com/detail/?Set=5801-1

Thank you so much for your help in advance!

andhe · March 2013

@jigglypuff why don't you look at the sets on Bricklink as well? Some of those pictures are pretty ropey.

But looks like most sets come with one wand so one acn assume that's correct.

andhe · March 2013

Edit: I've done it for you. Didn't realise it came in all those colours!

http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemInv.asp?S=5808-1
Trans-Neon Green Minifig, Utensil Magic Wand

http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemInv.asp?S=5824-1
Trans-Dark Pink Minifig, Utensil Magic Wand

http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemInv.asp?S=5825-1
says its this - Glow In Dark Opaque Minifig, Utensil Magic Wand
but the picture and alternate items suggest it's this - Trans-Clear Minifig, Utensil Magic Wand

I found a few parts that i didn't know what they were but i was able to id them but then i found this weird thing that i attached to a technic brick to photograph: http://s622.photobucket.com/user/AClover88/media/0320100330.jpg.html?sort=3&o=0#/user/AClover88/media/0320100330.jpg.html?sort=3&o=0&_suid=1363792769424018943225508630368

I know that this is technic but i don't know which catagory it's under. I tried doing an item search under the black color/part filter but no luck

ColoradoBricks · March 2013

It is usually used a vehicle bumper Item #30632, it goes with the spoiler Item #30626

ACWWGal2011 · March 2013

Oh cool, thanks. I began wondering if it could be vehicle related but i wasn't sure.

ColoradoBricks · March 2013

I have those 2 tiles that I can't identify. LEGO is printed on the back of each.
The round tile has a sticker, the other is printed and is the groove type.
The round one could have a knock off classic-space sticker.

I have went through the BL catalog but could not find any thing (searches with 4150* and 3069*).

Would appreciate any help to identify them or confirming the knock off sticker.

Thanks

oldtodd33 · March 2013

The blue tile is this one. http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=3069bp25

ColoradoBricks · March 2013

@oldtodd33, thanks obvious when seeing the front picture, never made the connection with the 3D picture...

AFFOL_Shellz_Bellz · March 2013

My search of BL did not find this road plate. Anyone know what set it is from?

ColoradoBricks · March 2013

@AFFOL_Shellz_Bellz, here it is : http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=6100px3

AFFOL_Shellz_Bellz · March 2013

Thank you @ColoradoBricks

murphquake · March 2013

Searching for all my Medium Azure brick today and found this 2x2 brick with a hole in the side (and through the 2 sides of the tube... looked on BL and saw these are in 2 things I own, a pair in the Friends Brickmaster book, and one in the Friends Stephanie polybag... any idea what's the deal?

CCC · March 2013

^ My Brickmaster books just have regular 2x2 bricks in medium azure. No holes in the sides.

The round classic space sticker is found in #7693. Interestingly, Bricklink does not have the counterpart round 2x2 tile with this sticker identified, but it's on the sticker sheet.

ColoradoBricks · March 2013

@Oldfam, that is it, thanks, I will submit it for the bricklink catalog.

BrickbashAction · March 2013

Hello all. Just curious if anyone can identify this head? I thought it was from an Indiana Jones set but I can't seem to locate it. Thanks for your help.

peterlinddk · March 2013

^ That is indeed from an Indiana Jones set - it is the head of one of the guards in the Temple of Doom.

BrickbashAction · March 2013

^ I looked at that set too but didn't see this head. Thank you!

wehrmut · March 2013

Anyone now this Fabuland-figure/set?
I found this cow, a chef's hat, a bowl and some other cooking utensil among my old Fabuland stuff. It may be part of the same set but I am now sure, as I could not find it.

oldtodd33 · March 2013

It looks like the head of a cow with the incorrect body found in this set. Or maybe a disfigured pig from this set. http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemInv.asp?S=3667-1.

oldtodd33 · March 2013

Ok, are you sure these are Lego? The ladle only came in yellow from those years, maybe it's faded. The cooking pot was only made in black according to BL. I also can't find the meat tenderizer at all. The chefs hat is also not listed on BL.

wehrmut · March 2013

I found it among my olg Lego. But now, as you mentioned it, I checked the figure and the stuff and I could not find any "Lego" lettering like on my other Fabuland figures. So it looks like a "fake".

andhe · April 2013

^Fake fabuland?! Whatever next. I like it when fakers put their own creativity into stuff though, rather than just copying directly. Like those Star Wars Ninjago spinners :D

AFFOL_Shellz_Bellz · April 2013

This flame was in some bulk we purchased recently. The lot had very little that wasn't Lego, but this has no Lego marking. Anyone out there able to confirm whether or not it is Lego?

oldtodd33 · April 2013

^ No, not Lego.

AFFOL_Shellz_Bellz · April 2013

@oldtodd Thank you.

Bluefox1966 · April 2013

Can anyone help me with this one? Cheers

oldtodd33 · April 2013

^ This one? http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=768

Bluefox1966 · April 2013

@oldtodd33 Cheers Mate that's the one. It has limited use me thinks.

ColoradoBricks · April 2013

Got a series of minifig & body parts. I was able to indentify all the pieces but for this torso. Arms and/or hands might not be the correct ones. There is no printing on the back.

Any help is appreciated,
Thanks

That is it, not sure how I missed it... Thank you @binaryeye, @andhe

gordonf · April 2013

I bought about 7 pounds of what looks like vintage LEGO parts at a yard sale. Most are the usual pieces. However, several are some I have not seen (but, Im a newbie). The two most interesting parts are similar. One is a square base with a metal crank and spindle and a crane arm that looks factory made. The base is basically 4x4 and the crane arm is about 2 1/2 inches in length. The other part is almost the same, but no arm. Sort of like a hoist. The crane part is red and the hoist part is yellow. I have tried keywords that would fit the parts in Bricklink, but nothing comes up. The parts are marked LEGO. Your expertise is appreciated.

ColoradoBricks · April 2013

@gordonf, try this thread. Pictures always help.

oldtodd33 · April 2013

@gordonf Try this page, look at the bottom. The color of the picture doesn't matter so much as the pictures are representative of the part only. Just click on the part number and you should see all of the color variations made. http://www.bricklink.com/catalogList.asp?catType=P&catID=88

ColoradoBricks is right though, pictures always help a lot.
