[Master thread] Help identifying parts, sets and minifigs

gelkster · December 2021

You have a #42096 Porsche

I'm not recognizing the tire tread pattern on the red pickup, nor see a match on Bricklink- are these all LEGO?

gelkster · December 2021

I'm guessing this red buggy is one of the custom/MOC builds.

gelkster · December 2021

Ok I missed the part in your 1st post about Lepin.

If you get any 100% authentic LEGO sets together & you wish to trade Technic for Technic, pls LMK.

Hi guys, could you help me to identify the minifigure above?

sipuss · January 21

That'd be Talon from #76110.

So, what sets would you say have a chance of being in this lot, 6091 for sure but the rest?

The brown canopy (bottom left) is from one of these rock raiders sets

https://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemIn.asp?P=30298&colorID=8&in=A

It could be as #6091 or #10176, they share the same base, though the stained glass window top let is from #6091 or #6095.

I'd guess there is #6291 as well and the baseplate top left is from #6082

And possibly #4480 Jabba's Palace judging by the old school Jabba fig.

Powderfinger · January 26

Thanks, I think the bottom right baseplate is from 6090 as well?

andhe · January 26

Yes, I'm not sure what number I meant to write when I wrote 6291. #6090 looks possible.

Switchfoot55 · January 26

Not enough tan/dark tan for there to be anything close to a complete Jabba's Palace.

I do see a sail in the bottom left. Maybe from #627 Caribbean Clipper? I see rigging in the middle/right side. Seems to be lots of the correct colors as well for the remainder of the ship.

560Heliport · January 26

I think that sail is from #6280 Armada Flagship.

I’ve just built #6090 and can confirm there’s at least two of the baseplates used for that set underneath all those bricks.

The triceratops body might mean something like #5987 Dino Research Compound is there too, broken up.

TheFew · January 29

How do I tell if this is genuine or not...

Cannot find a Lego logo, just "3338 03" on one side..

Astrobricks · January 29

The prominent mold number and mold mark on the neck make me strongly doubt it’s Lego.

Fizyx · January 29

So, the piece is clearly modeled after the baby Norbert piece, which is a legit piece, but Rebrickable has a picture of the left profile of the piece here that show no mold marks on the neck or tail like the one shown. However, that doesn't mean that they didn't necessarily change the mold later on.

TheFew · January 29

Probably trash then!

Astrobricks · January 29

The the bricklink pictures don’t show the mold marks either, but they are small pics.

Hi all!

Since this is my first post in this community, I'd like to say hi to all of you.

I got here since I'm trying to identify the designer (and best, obtain an instruction) for the MOC set I literally found in the garage of the apartment I just bought.

It is a warship with a helicopter, it contains Star Wars printed elements, and I think it might have been built from an actual LEGO Star Wars set.

I went through many MOC designers, however I was never able to find who designed and built it.

Please see the links below.
Many thanks!

If it is dark (bluish) grey, it is almost certainly fake.

Do you mean the overall set? I wouldn't say it's bluish, but I definitely think it might be fake. Although the quality of the bricks (and I spent hundreds of hours with LEGOs, mainly star wars in the past) is in my opinion flawless, and LEGO like quality.

560Heliport · January 30

It's not a set, it's just something someone built. It must not have been very important to the builder, since they left it behind.

dangerousdave · January 30

Yup, by the "set" I meant the whole thing. I'm aware it is not a set, but I'm certainly sure that no one could have just built it, as the level of complexity and planning is stunnig, there are hidden and visible features everywhere, hence I'm having some hopes on finding the designer and buying an instruction. Or maybe somebody was a plain genius and just built it :)

I was replying to the Norbert part. Your post was only 2 minutes before mine, it wasn't there when I was typing.

No, appears to be LBG.

Why would you think someone couldn’t have “just built” it? That’s exactly what many MOC designers spend hours/weeks/months doing. Many use design software like stud.io to try things out and plan a design before doing it “in the brick”.

You are exactly right, that's what I meant by "just built it", and hence I do have some hopes on obtaining the instruction from the designer, as I would love to take it apart and build it again. I can see that lots of time went into this design and I wish I could rebuild it, but not having an instruction leaves me unable to take it apart which makes mi sad.

WhyNotSmile · January 31

Can anyone identify any of the parts in the photo? I was given a box of mixed Lego; there seem to be a lot of Friends sets but potentially some other things too. Everything in the photo apart from the mushroom-like piece has “Lego” branded on it, so I think it’s all genuine, but there are some other brick brands in the box so it’s possible some pieces are fake.

I put the big eye onto the tan piece just to show the size (I’ve only ever seen 1x1 eyes before); obviously I don’t need the tan piece identified.

Thanks!

flord · February 1

The target and the red mushroom are found in Merida's Highland Games, if that helps.

flord · February 1

Any help with the following? The black torso and legs are clearly Star Wars, I just went over all the officers and gunners and didn't spot this one. I don't know if the white head is legit Lego or not.

Thanks for your help!

Image: https://us.v-cdn.net/5015319/uploads/editor/jl/jiuyvbmx0ru7.jpg

560Heliport · February 1

@flord the white head is from the Agents theme, Mission Deep Freeze subtheme from 2004; that piece was in all eight sets.

560Heliport · February 1

#2 is a Death Trooper, from either #75165 Imperial Trooper Battle Pack, or #75213 2018 Sw Advent Calendar.

560Heliport · February 1

#1's head is from Space, UFO subtheme, from 1997: figure SP043.

iwybs · February 1

The body of #1 is from Space, Life on Mars subtheme, year 2001.

Make your own instructions as you take it apart (because it appears to be in desperate need of cleaning too).

I recently unpacked some MOCs that I made in 1996 and 1997. I'm going to disassemble them and return the pieces to the original sets, but I used Stud.io to create a digital build (and then instructions) of these sets first. It's nice to have a digital record of these in case I (or my son) ever want to re-assemble them. I've posted copies on Rebrickable as a backup...and so everyone else can enjoy them too. (I could have made improvements and some obvious piece replacements, but kept the digital models 100% accurate to my original 1990s builds.)

Those stickered tiles with studs, the window and the 2 x 4 tile are from #41005 Heartlake High, the LURP is from a Town Divers set, possibly #6559 Deep Sea Bounty.

Boyband700 · February 3

Can anyone help me identify what this set is please?

Image: https://us.v-cdn.net/5015319/uploads/editor/sk/p6mlfh31kkvv.jpg

560Heliport · February 3

I think it's #5510 with a lot of parts missing.

WhyNotSmile · February 3

Thanks for the help. Any ideas on any of these?

The purple blocks are sloped. The gold dish doesn’t have a Lego brand on it, so may not be genuine Lego.

The_Rancor · February 3

The purple bricks might be from #41101 Heartlake Grand Hotel. The surfing stickered tile probably Friends too. Gold dish doesn’t look like a legit Lego part.

560Heliport · February 4

The purple bricks are from #41077 Aira's Pegasus Sleigh, an Elves set. They're Medium Lavender, not Medium Lilac- Lego's names.

@Boyband700 if you notice, the license plate has the set number on it. Common way to identify vehicles.

Tom79 · February 4

Pretty sure that gold dish a couple posts up is Playmobil. I've gotten dozens of Playmobil pieces out of second hand Lego lots - at least I can add those to the Playmobil collection the kids have so not a total loss unlike some other things you can find in such lots :-)

Yeah, that’s what I thought too, the design language is just different enough for it to be recognisable.

WhyNotSmile · February 4

Thanks! Yeah, the dish could be Playmobil. There’s definitely some Elves stuff in the box, so that would make sense for the purple to be from there.

Any ideas on the green bit?

Another fun fact- if any letters are.involved those are often the designer initials.

That green bit is part 3688 (assuming I'm seeing the 2x2x2 size correctly). It has been used in 11 total sets, 9 of which it was the top of a tree of some sort, usually of the Christmas variety.

Most of the uses were in Friends foil packs or Friends Advent Calendars. Perhaps one of those makes most sense with the rest of the Friends pieces you have?

An advent calendar would make sense because I’ve got a few random things like a penguin, skis and some hockey sticks that don’t seem to fit with an actual set.

sonatine01 · February 8

I’m not sure this is the right place to post this, but….

Just looking through some parts on BaP on Lego after the new changes. Looking at element 6064834/ design I.D. 70885 Hippo. It has no picture on the Lego website and it doesn’t seem to exist here or on Bricklink (although I find Bricklink a nightmare to navigate). Can anyone help me out please ? Is it just a duplo hippo or some random part with a strange name ? It’s £18 odd so seems expensive.

You've probably got #41102
