I only found the bottom piece of the purple guy. Thanks! Had to call in and manually order a ton of those parts in the haul. 12 hours ago, Dadster said: What the heck... really jealous you were able to order a Great White DuckBricks! I think you can still order it by phone as long as you give the right ID number for the shark body+head in the bag!

And yeah haha, those manta rays work great in my custom Aquazone display which is more fantasy styled, but definitely won’t pass as real animals haha Quote
jonwil Posted June 27, 2021 Posted June 27, 2021 I think the rays from last years divers sets are better looking for normal use than the Ninjago ones. Quote
PRBricks Posted June 28, 2021 Posted June 28, 2021 Baby elephants and lions are back; see Animal Moulds for more info :) Quote

Super happy to get some of the latest stuff that won't come out in the US until August Which is the code number/from which set is that octopus head?? Edited June 28, 2021 by Chiaroscuro Quote
Megbricks Posted June 28, 2021 Posted June 28, 2021 (edited) I think I have received all of my animals. I tried to fit as many as I could on a 32 x 32 plate. Time to make a safari diorama. Edited June 28, 2021 by Megbricks Quote

Maple Posted June 28, 2021 Posted June 28, 2021 (edited) A lion is $7.59?! BABY elephant is $7.75?! I'll stick/wait for eBay knockoffs. A croc body is 96 cents, the jaw is $1.03, and the tail is 37 cents. Who comes up with these prices? The sheep might be the ugliest animal LEGO has ever made. Edited June 28, 2021 by Maple Quote

lego_guyon02 Posted June 28, 2021 Posted June 28, 2021 Not sure if this has been answered before but do we know if there's a specific reason why some pieces can only be ordered by phone? Seems a bit odd to not make pieces you're selling anyway available on your site Quote

Seems a bit odd to not make pieces you're selling anyway available on your site The consultant can have access to the upcoming stock database or something like that, which allows him to place an order of pieces not yet in BnP website. However, the more important is the question why the same piece has different numbers for the web database and the phone one (as the body and head of the elephants).

Also we actually don´t know the factors that influence the price of each piece. There may be some arbitrary rules but that is the game. I found the sheep cute, very much in the asthetics of Shaun.

Seems a bit odd to not make pieces you're selling anyway available on your site Pure speculation on my part: In their system the "protective bag" with the elephant head has a price, the head itself does not have a price. You can't order any of the "protective bag" elements online. You can't buy any elements with zero price online (maybe they will just default to "Out of stock" even when they are in stock?). If this is correct it could also explain why calling CS yields different results depending on who you speak with; A good CS knows to check if a protective bag exists if price comes up with zero when you give them the elementId, a bad one just says "You can't order that".

The numbers Jonwil provided were what I provided to the customer service officer but they were not the ones they use to order (despite being on B&P). For reference I only got bodies and no heads - I ordered heads just didn't receive them. On an order time frame note my 27 May order just came in - 4 weeks for Australia - this is at the quicker end of receiving orders. Edited June 29, 2021 by timemail Quote
