How many Brick Separators do you own?

[Big Cam]

So what do you have?

Do they relly come in all the colors that Bricklink says? Because bricklink only has 3 colors for sale.

I allowed multiple votes for the colors since this could happen, but please don't abuse it and skew the results, be honest.

One, it's green, and I LOOOVE it. How did I ever manage without it? (Oh wait, I just have to look at my pre-dark ages bricks to answer that...)

[Milan]

I do not have any of them. I have just searched through youtube and it looks like it is very useful! Can anyone throw opinion about this part/set? Thanks catbricks.

Really? It helps you take off LEGOpieces from other LEGO pieces. I find it the most useful when trying to take off small flat pieces from large flat pieces. Instead of hurting your fingernails you use one of these.

I'd grab one next time you are at a LEGO store or order from Shop @ Home, it's like 2 bucks and worth every penny.

They can be found in green, grey and orange..... The other colors are "wants" there is no evidence that they are out there.

I own a Grey one. I thing one can be enough (and I didn't even know it was available in orange too).

[M. Lupin]

Zippo!

Right now I'm trying my best to increase my collection's size and... I can't afford one. It may be the the most useful piece, but I don't need one. And yes I need random cool looking figures of lines I've never heard of!

Ahh, thank you.

Too bad, it costs less than the tax on most sets.

$2.49

I have two, both in dark grey. One is enough for most cases, but I seem to be constantly losing one or both, so it's nice to have two around.

[Big Cam]

I'm kind of tempted to buy an orange one just to have it.

$16 but it'd be rare.

[Spyder]

I actually wasn't sure of whether to buy one or not, so I made this thread a while ago, asking people their opinion on it. I finally went to a Lego store and decided to buy one, as there were buckets of 'em all over the place. I got home and tried it out, and I instantly knew I should've gotten a couple more. It's the best thing to ever happen to my Lego, and my fingernails. I don't know how I ever got on without it. I highly recommend to anyone who doesn't own one that they get one ASAP.

[Athos]

I have several, but its never enough, since I can never find one when I need it...

[Peppermint_M]

One in dark grey, I find it sometimes when I need it, other times it is nowhere to be found

It is useful, but it can cause MOC failure so I don't use it that often.

[Big Cam]

I read that other thread and saw the post about them being evil and damaging bricks.

I only use mine for the bricks thgat are really hard to get off. I honestly barely use it, but I love having it around for that one time I get frustrated because 2 pieces won't come apart.

I can't see myself removing the same brick multiple times in a row to cause any damage.

I've even watched my bricks as I separate them and I see no damage at all.

[JCC1004]

I don't have any. I keep forgeting to get one at the Lego Store. Anyway, I'm a man, I don't nedd no stinking brick separator! I'd really like an orange one though. I'll probably have to settle with green.

[Etzel]

I had two grey as a kid but now I have none. And I don't feel the need for anyone neither, my fingernails are good enough and when they aren't I can always use some other bricks or plates to separate the pieces.

[prateek]

Don't own any, but my cousin does, and it is really useful

Haha, this is the best reply.

I am THE man, too, but still my fingers hurts sometimes, and I am not afraid to admit it!

I will have to order one with next BL order.

[Ricecracker]

I have around five. I never even considered using one until I got one as a gift. Now I use two of them all the time. The reason I have five is because I got my first two as gifts (Both green), and my other three + from garage sale lots afterwards (All grey). I really want the bright light orange one, because it would stand out among my other parts making it easier to find.

[Batbrick]

I only have one, but it awesome and it is especially useful getting pieces off of plates. Mine is grey.

Batbrick Away!

[Rocketbilly]

I have two, possibly three, but I'm unsure as I can never seem to find them all in the same place at any given time

Weirdly, after an accident I had a few years back in which I nearly lost my finger, I gained a sort of "claw" - combine that with medical treatment to treat bone density and I now have my own natural brick separator

Kind of weird.....but I'm going back to the more traditional grey ones I own....not only are they plastic, but they save me chipping my nail polish too

Seriosuly though, I do think they are great little gadgets. I even incorporated one into a MOC once.

Yes it is the best reply, even with the typo. My figures get really numb sometimes. My skin sometimes get caught in between bricks. Lego is a painful hobby. I did see this funny MOC by Doctor Sinister.

[The Green Brick Giant]

When were they that yellow orange color? Is that a special thing for LEGO workers or something?

I have one old grey set and one green one that came in a Creator set.

[ILikePi]

I have one - a green one (which I bought on January 2009)!

I find it to be extremely useful, but I think that I will need to get another sometime in the future to make taking plates apart easier.

Too bad, it costs less than the tax on most sets.

$2.49

It used to be $1.79 USD a few months ago.

[Piranha]

1 GREEN Brick separator for me

I think a grey one would be nice but yes the orange one is really cool and a special part.

I considered buying one when i made an order from Magic Bricks recently however $16 was a bit steep for me
