Oddly this is the second time that specific part (but also in silver) is missing from an order, here. They're cheap & not worth bothering Lego's service, but I find strange to have this happening twice for the same part. Every so often I get parts in an order that I did not request or pay for and each time I call Lego to let them know and ask if they want me to return them (they always say no). Three separate times its been a bunch of pieces; 1x8 tiles in white approximately 30, a Technic pin coupling piece that I think I stopped counting after 40 and the blue 1x3 Technic pins that were far into the double-digits. I'm usually so excited that I often forget to count and check each piece I did order, but the pieces that I know I didn't order stand out. So I guess I'm on the opposite end of the order errors, must have received someone else's parts which makes me feel bad because depending on where they live (and whether Megbricks is online ) it could be a while before they finally get them.

anothergol Posted June 4, 2019 Posted June 4, 2019 (edited) Ah, I too have received parts by mistake, but only one lot, it was quite a lot of large trans blue windows for which I had no use for :( On another subject, I had hopes for this part: (32627) and I'm now realizing that the underside wasn't designed like the 4x4 dish at all, and that the border is slightly too thick, by like a fraction of a mm, and it will not cover 8 studs like the dish can, only 4. Weird design :( Normally such a part should have had either a thin border like the dish, OR cutouts for studs like round plates have. And where does it originally come from? Minifig blind bags. It's too often that minifig "accessories" are designed like not fully part of the system. Edited June 4, 2019 by anothergol Quote

I thought it was from a blind bag because of the stand (ah, that's his "vehicle"? I guess it makes sense in the movie which I haven't seen) Edited June 5, 2019 by anothergol Quote

My cart was at about $200 when it timed out. Today might get expensive... I read every page, [primarily during downtime at work lol] and I have 8 pages of parts written in a legal pad. This thread is awesome. For the fleshies, as well as everyone else, Hercules torso is available (in US at least): 6258601 and I think someone mentioned 6237179 female flesh torso also is available Both from the 88585 design-ation.

Anonknee Muss Posted June 17, 2019 Posted June 17, 2019 I have confirmation that piece 6266977 (50018) is £5.26 (in Lego’s intranet, I haven’t checked B&P yet) which is a complete rip off if you ask me. I don’t mind paying £2 but £5 is massively OTT IMO. Quote

I usually end up buying the last couple to complete each series on eBay to prevent the frustration of getting too many of the wrong duplicates. Quote

I think we’re talking about different pieces, I’m talking about the exclusive accessory piece pack in the new batcave set. Quote

So not too bad compared to similar parts sold individually. But wait and they will probably be much cheaper on Bricklink once the set is inventoried and parted out by multiple sellers. Quote
anothergol Posted June 18, 2019 Posted June 18, 2019 For those who had planned to get this (quite expensive for what it is) part thinking it's a nice new way to connect bars binocular-style, don't bother, it's just decorative (I would have known if I had looked more carefully). A missed opportunity IMHO. Quote
eldiano Posted June 20, 2019 Posted June 20, 2019 Dang bro seriously, whats with the bricks and pieces massive delay!? It took four weeks to arrive and customer support citing a national holiday!? The orders sit in a warehouse for a week before shipping, i complained and they gave me 300 vip points, but the other issue is that fed ex has been screwing up shipments from lego left and right, my packaged should had arrived saturday but they delayed it using exemptions until delivery today!!

koalayummies Posted June 20, 2019 Posted June 20, 2019 I'm posting this here, so that hopefully won't forget... again. Every time, completely forget about this new piece. TILE 1X3, INVERTED, W/ 3.2 HOLE etc Quote

Brick Cucumber Posted June 20, 2019 Posted June 20, 2019 Does bricks and pieces regularly restock or do parts just become available individually? I really wanted some of those new Midlegs from the Stranger Things D2C and am bummed I missed them seeing as Bricklink sellers haven't parted the set out yet. Quote

I wish the Chitauri were on there from the Avengers, the new ones look so much better than the old ones. I also wish teenage groot was on there so I could have an army of them. Quote

I can't answer your first question, though I'm surprised (Pun: a strange thing) these minifigs are still holding their value. BL was flooded with dis-proportionally cheap minifigs from the $800 UCS Falcon relatively early on. There's little incentive at the moment to part these figs out. Quote
hpz Posted June 21, 2019 Posted June 21, 2019 Waffle piece 6287774 is in stock from 75810 Stranger Things, and also all heads are in stock for Flintstones again :) Quote
Beardybricks Posted June 23, 2019 Posted June 23, 2019 How do you find element numbers for body parts and other elements from CMF figs? Or specific printed parts? Quote
Exetrius Posted June 23, 2019 Posted June 23, 2019 My order from June 2 arrived yesterday! Such beautiful Ninjago parts (expensive though)! Cheers to everyone who has recently received their order too! Some great loot shots! Quote
