This happens when you think you had a hard challenge today.

6 cm high while standing as seen in your picture. From feet to ears. (Which is also close to 6 studs.)

Also seems to be 6 cm long while standing extended on his back feet. Measured from front feet to tail. (But I can not tell exactly...)

First answer is right!

The second is wrong.

Still 3 points!

This is one of six LEGO moulded fully-grown System horses produced: 93083, 4493, 6171, 10352 (this one), Bullseye from Toy Story, and the Scala horse.

It also first turned up in a set six years ago - in 2012.

And - I'm not with my LEGO collection at the moment, so I can't check... but if there's an anti-stud under its left front hoof, it has a total of six stud connection points: One under each hoof, and two for the saddle.

Finally, I think the horse itself might, at the factory, be put together from six different moulds: Left and right side of the head, left and right side of the body, and left and right side of the legs.

I love your answers and your first two are correct, but the horse is missing your front hoof - anti stud.

We'll ask somebody official in Billund about your six-mould theory.

So all in all 2 well deserved points!

Unles @Holodoc f@&#s up with some crazy timings ... BUT there's something else, I can feel it. Will come up with something after some more sleep ...

 

Edit: Here's all I could come up with:

On BL this piece is listed under one of six Animal categories.

What can I do for you besides laying the ball on the penalty spot? Maybe posting and then immediately going to bed is not the wisest of all things...

Your answer is strechting the limit, this is 1 point.

I guess that happens easily when you live in a different time zone. You never know when @Holodoc decides to throw a bombnew challenge. 

[Holodoc]

We're half-way done!

I hope this time suits all of you better:

I do count the first answer here, but not the last.
Making it 10 points altogether! Well done! Seems to be your time, right?

This day slingshots you on place 2!

I used to be good at maths, but I might have lost my counting skills. I think I should get only 8 points for 6 answers (or are there some double points?).

To be honest atlogether it's just 7 points: 5 correct answers including the one with 3 points.
But your honesty makes it 8 again. Thank you very much for clarifying it!

On to "day 4":

[Redhead1982]

This part is available in 4 sets in this reddish brown color.

Also this part in reddish brown appears in 4 themes (Elves, Ghostbusters, Dimensions and Modular buildings).

Edited May 22, 2018 by Redhead1982

[Quarryman]

And disregarding colour it appears in 4 sets in 2018 (so far).

[Skalldyr]

There are 4 in Set Ferry 60119 in white

There are 4 in Ocean HQ 70173 in white 

There are 4 in Ninjago City 70620in dark bluish grey

There are 4 in 3817 Flying Dutchman in green

 

(Which means 4 sets with 4 inside.)

[Bob De Quatre]

There are 4 posts with answers regarding that particular part in the EB Event countdown topic. 

[Lasse D]

There are 4 notches inside of the pin hole of this part, which allows it to grip onto a pin without making it impossible for children to separate the parts again.

4 minifigs can stand in a circle, all holding the part as shown in the picture.

There are 4 standard connections: Stud (above), antistud (below), pin hole and clip (the last connection type is shown in the picture).

I shouldn't have started giving pints for that.
Yet I did: 4 points.

Note to all: From today on no more points for these answers!

Okay: I have to figure out if the first two answers are correct. This will take until tomorrow.
The last one is perfect: 1 point.

Thanks. You can actually see the notches in your pic. The circle of minifig is easy to do, while I personally can't make 5 stand in the same circle and all hold the part.

[Skalldyr]

I love Lasses answers! Super creative 

[L@go]

This part clearly forms a figure of eight in your picture - which is dividable by 4! 

It also has the four letters L E G O clearly visible in the picture...

...aaaaand the thickness of the ring itself, measured across the top, is roughly 4 millimetres.

[MstrOfPppts]

This part was introduced in 1999 when it came in 4 sets.

What trickery is this now? Me and Skalldyr are loosing points for no reason - or is it bad sportsmanship?

Haha true I did not even realize 

[LegoFjotten]

Since there are two holes in that part, a minifig could go number 2 in both, which of course adds up to AND multiplies to 4. Bazinga!

(Oh ok, I promise I will stop... mostly).
