I was hoping that the Dark Red 23405 would become generally available as they are a lovely recolour I could buy a ton of, alas not yet. I didn't notice any other recolours but may have missed some.

Its definitely available, search part 6492174.

What’s up with LEGO and GWP’s? Before it was easy to find the sets on their search engine, even though it wasn’t easy. Now it’s completely banned, no parts count or blind bag accessories exist through there. I know it was mentioned before but now my shopping cart that I have saved since it was do able a few weeks back, it dropped in brick count related to that set.

Where are your search buttons? When the website updated and moved them to the top, I wasn’t able to search for GWPs anymore. Today the website reverted back to the buttons being on the left and now I can search for it but only if I type in the number and hit the search button. It doesn’t show a drop down like regular set.

The thing is that I use my iphone to buy parts and I could get away with it back then, but now when I used a desktop I saw the layouts you mentioned but the problem is it won't give you the parts from the GWP even if it doesn't find it. Like you mentioned, if it's not a regular set, it doesn't populate the search lets you choose the bricks. 

I can't do the same with blind bag part numbers either.

Got a Pick a Brick situation that has me stumped. I recently received an order that included 300 "transparent light blue" 1x2 tiles. But the color is noticeably different than the "transparent light blue" tiles I've received in past PAB orders or LEGO sets.

Image: https://imgur.com/a/XePJ274

The top is “transparent light blue” ID: 6251295/35386 that I just ordered.

The bottom is “transparent light blue” from previous orders/sets. Never had such a noticeable difference in color before? It almost looks like what I received is a satin trans light blue but without the satin finish/no sparkles?

On the PAB site there's element ID: 6251295 (which I ordered) and Element ID: 6514227 (opalescent, which I didn't order) and then element ID: 6514224 (another trans light blue?). I emailed LEGO about it and all they said was they would send replacement parts, no clarification on what happened.

Anyone know what’s up?

When checking toypro:

Transparent Light Blue = LEGO® Element ID: 4585132, 4667222, 6251295, 6514224, this you ordered.

Satin Trans-Light Blue = LEGO® Element ID: 6316987, 6514227 "Transparent Light Blue with Opalescence

https://www.lego.com/sv-se/pick-and-build/pick-a-brick?icmp=PAB_All_Pieces&designNumber=35386&query=6514224+6514227

Only set to have the Satins Trans-Light Blue 6514227 seems to be the Kingfisher?

Maybe some LEGO pickabrick bowl? got the wrong part?

So strange! It’s definitely not the satin trans light blue. It’s almost a clear light turquoise.

I’ve never seen a piece this color before, and it’s definitely off from other trans light blue pieces. And it’s 100% legit LEGO. Just wish their email reply had some more info on what happened.

It‘s seems to be the same problem

Interesting! And thanks for sending! This is the first I’ve found of the same color issue online despite searching the last couple days.

LEGO is very kindly sending replacement parts, so hopefully they match one of the colors I have? I’m using it for a MOC with lots of water. LEGO was asking if I was accidentally comparing transparent light blue to transparent blue. If anyone else is curious, here’s a comparison of all 3 colors:

I bought the sealed Parisian restaurant set last year  from lego convention event. and i started building this set a few months ago. 

Then i found 3 flat tiles (same color). So i went over to lego website to order missing parts. I noticed that i can’t edit quantity of that piece but i had to repeat the process. How can i edit qty? I don’t see anything on my ipad.

How does a 6514227 , look, with those 3 other blues? if all put on the same background plate?

I put the three next to each other on a variety of plates: https://imgur.com/a/EMJ5oHq

The left column is the new trans light blue, the middle column is my old trans light blue, and the right column is trans blue.

The difference is most noticeable on the white plate, but even on the darker plates the two left columns catch the light differently and you can tell they’re different shades.

I’m sure the right mix of the two trans light blue would make a decent effect for water though?

Edit: the biggest issue is that the left column is a little too clear while the other two columns blur the underlying plate more, giving it a little more depth for water.

As far as I know you can't edit quantity, you just have to click for that part 3 times. That's what I've had to do in the past.

That stinks! But thank you for your reply, I appreciate that.

What's likely the case is a change in the material that LEGO is using to make the piece. They changed the type of plastic that they use for transparent bricks a few years back which can cause some variation.

.... ?!

LEGO Pick a Brick, there one can use - and +, to adjust how many parts needed. Atleast on C. It is on the bottom of the screen. Small 1x1 brick icon, brings the menu up, with the Bestseller and Standard part lists.

You don't have that trans satin light blue with opalescence

I don’t, unfortunately, but from pictures it also looks like it won’t match any of the pieces

We were talking about ‘missing pieces’ section on PAB. I cou not see a + symbol on that webpage.  It’s kinda annoying to repeat process if i need to order a same piece 3x times.
