Then they changed it to Pick a Brick not long after, I recall. Although now it's 'Pick a Brick (Standard)', so they do keep it up to date, and they clearly intend for Bestseller pieces to contribute to it. It may be a shipping thing, given that Standard pieces come from a different fulfillment centre? That could have easily have been done by a bot. I mean, when you change certrain names like for instance renaming VIP into insiders there are many sites and links you would have to change it. It is possible that they do it manually but I would think they use a bot for such tasks. Anyways. They announced back then that parts would also count and they do ever since. No idea why they never removed it from the terms and conditions, but the most likely reason for me is still they just forgot about it. Quote
karrit Posted October 9, 2023 Posted October 9, 2023 (edited) There's a ton more new parts up on PAB. Mostly out of stock of course and no pictures. Seems like a lot of heads, torsos, armor, printed tiles & creature parts from the descriptions. Edited October 9, 2023 by karrit Quote

If youre a fan of ninjago from earlier in the year and the CMF series 23/24(?) from end of last year/start of year you might find some interesting bits Quote

I use Rebrickable for building my lists for MOCs because the images are good and the UI is generally very clear and easy. Some of the tools are extremely helpful too. Quote

No pictures so until I get around to trying to compare to New Elementary's or Rebrickable's pictures I've no idea what sets they actually are from. There's a hat listed at least a half dozen times but doesn't say what color any of them are. A few listings are for wings. One of them appears to be Tiana's tiara.

Clone OPatra Posted October 10, 2023 Posted October 10, 2023 Starting from the oldest of this batch of newly added parts, a bunch are Ninjago things that I'm sure have been added previously, but possibly some that were missing as well. Weird. Quote
jonwil Posted October 10, 2023 Posted October 10, 2023 A few of the parts that got listed (like the Ninjago scuba gear) are going to be popular on here... Quote
Sir Dano Posted October 10, 2023 Posted October 10, 2023 (edited) They finally added the missing crown shield from 10305, 6400203. And the troubador/prince torso, 6370045. Edited October 10, 2023 by Sir Dano Quote
jodawill Posted October 10, 2023 Posted October 10, 2023 Pretty much EVERYTHING is listed now! They even have space babies! The classic space torsos are finally listed. The white one is in stock, but not the red. Even the Eldorado Fortress parts are up. By the way, the troubadour's torso and head are also available. Quote

Did they sell out already or they just put up the listings OMMGGGGGGG So the pirate parts weren’t exclusive? Hehehehe. I’m seeing everything I wanted to buy in the first place.

Hehehehe Most of the parts haven't been in stock at all yet. It could be any hour now! The white space torsos are available, but not the red. I'm going to wait until I can get more than that. I already ordered stuff this morning and now they're doing this to me! Quote
upliftingbricks Posted October 10, 2023 Posted October 10, 2023 More! I cant keep up with all these drops! Quote

I found it interesting that the when you narrow down the pieces by sets they don’t show up in the sets. I tried to keep my page only to bricks from 10320 and none of what just dropped is sorted in there. Maybe the bricks from that set were locked in and they got new design id’s which I’m all for. Once I saw the flag, torsos and admiral’s hat, I lost it. Although I only wanted more yellow bricks that were missing on the regular missing bricks page Quote
karrit Posted October 10, 2023 Posted October 10, 2023 I ordered a bunch of stuff last night before this latest batch got added. Was loads of fun trying to figure out what everything was without the pictures but found it was mostly Ninjago so only added a few things to what I already had in my cart. At least today's new adds mostly have pictures. I see a bunch of stuff I want so maybe I'll try to do another order before what's currently available goes out of stock. Still have quite a backlog of out of stock parts I want. Quote
MKJoshA Posted October 10, 2023 Posted October 10, 2023 It's like Christmas! Except you have to wait your turn to open the presents. And if you wait too long someone else might get your present first... wait, it's not Christmas it's a nightmare! In stock, out of stock, pictures, no pictures, it's a mess! But seriously, Lego seems to have opened the flood-gates all of a sudden. I see Hocus Pocus parts. I see Dom's torso. Is that Pippin's LOTR torso I see? And then a whole backlog of updated part number pieces, previously unreleased (like the space torsos) pieces, and straight up new ones like the Blue Coats. What's going on!?! Quote

RichardGoring Posted October 10, 2023 Posted October 10, 2023 Just spent about two hours going through placing several orders (to maximize GWPs) and noticed at the end when browsing by new that loads of parts had been added. But no pictures and mostly out of stock, I got a few interesting torsos, but will have to wait until next time now. Very excited to order a load of stuff to complete Rebrickable MOCs and some old sets. Quote
Clone OPatra Posted October 11, 2023 Posted October 11, 2023 The Aurora hair is back on. It's pages and pages back, with amongst the other pieces with which it originally appeared. Quote
