Is 3 Studs high

3 Studs is wrong - I think you meant 3 bricks high, right?

But...

...that is also wrong, the height of part 32333 is 2 bricks and two plates.

This part appears in 3 Town sets (Tower Crane, Tower Crane, and Volcano Exploration Base) and in 3 Ninjago sets (Misfortune's Keep, Skull Truck, and

Turbo Shredder)

1 Ninjatown point.

hmmmm maybe that Bricklink lists only 3 colours as "Appears As Regular:" 

I regard this being correct. Total points stay the same (see above).

[MstrOfPppts]

I think someone (not to always blame @Holodoc) overlooked 15 points for my prophetic answer, because this part (in black as show in picture) indeed did appear in 3 sets in 3 different years (2000, 2006, 2011).

I think I should start to subtract points with wrong answers like: weighs 3 gramm... - when it weighs 0.1g less.

Everyone knows that you have to include the envelope :D :D :D

So still no right answer today...? It is a difficult one!

Bingo!
Another right answer would have been: According to BL this part has been produced in 3 colours.

 

We're closing in :

[Skalldyr]

Two legal connections. Bar on top and antistud at the bottom.

The part was released two years ago

In all the sets with the hot dog bun it came together with one of two sausage colours. Red or Dark Red.

 

It is getting trickier every day!

- There are 2 FDA approved ways for a minifig to serve, eat and hold this edible part: Using left hand and using right hand.

- This is always part of a 2 part assembly: bun + sausage.

- Since it came out there have only been 2 types of LEGO figures that have held this item: minifig and minidoll (This friends type minifig).

- There are 2 sides of this part when wrapping around a sausage.

- It is available in 2 conditions: new and used.

- It is made using a 2 component mold (upper and lower section - see the molding line on the side)

Right and the master-answer: 4 points!

The last answer refers to the sausage - which is not on the photo.

I'll generously give points for the first 3 answers and the last one. New and used ... honestly?

Congratulations to Skalldyr for being an early winner. There's no way I'll be up and online for the last photo. I'll be picking up @MstrOfPppts in 12 hours, and still need to pack a few essentials for the road trip. After today's fun activities which included an early morning visit to the doctors, staying at home with a strange skin rash, going to the office twice during the day to deal with some papers, and the grand finale (a puke and a pee) starring my little girl, I wanna get to bed early. Really looking forward to have some adult fun.  But first, first stop tomorrow Legoland Gunzburg. 

Have a safe trip and see you in Billund.

Hey not too fast. You never know what will happen. Even tho I was pretty darn lucky with the timing of the part posts in here. 

Anyway have a good trip and enjoy Günzburg (Fabrik I guess)!

Oh and please teach MstrOfPppts some of your skills. He was way to silent this countdown...

[Lasse D]

Well. I will be in meetings between now and this afternoon, and since she is away, it seems like you can just phone it in.

[Holodoc]

The finishing line!

 

 

 

[Skalldyr]

ONE connection: antistud

ONE stud wide.

All the spiral like swirls go together in ONE point.

That border between the lower part and the top with the swirls is One millimeter thick.

Brickset name is: 1X1 Decoration Top No. 1

Bricklink says that the part appeared with only One Minifig. (Eventho Babette is a rather strange Fig...)

There are two connections: anti stud and outer ring stud grip (you can place it between 4 studs on a 2x2 plate), so that can't be the right answer.

The piece only fits in one minifig hand at a time

The top part of the piece is only a single (1) point

The piece in this color only comes in 1 Promotional set: 40181

The piece in this color only came in 1 Friends set in 2014: 41035

The piece in this color only came in 1 Jurassic World set: 75919

The piece in this color only came in 1 modular building in 2015: 10246

The piece in this color only came in 1 modular building in 2016: 10251

The piece in this color only came in 1 Star Wars set in 2016: 75158

The piece in this color only came in 1 regular (not value pack) Friends set in 2016: 41119

The piece in this color only came in 1 value pack: 66539

The piece in this color only came in 1 modular building in 2017: 10246

The piece in this color only came in 1 non-modular set in 2017: 40174

There is only 1 piece :)

Edit. I need more answers!

There is only one of this piece in this color in the set 40174

There is only one of this piece in this color in the set 41119

There is only one of this piece in this color in the set 76038

There is only one of this piece in this color in the set 41035

There is only one of this piece in this color in the set 40181

There is only one of this piece in this color in the set 66539

There is only one of this piece in this color in the set 5004552

Hmm very true. I forgot.

 

And holy s..t this is insane! You are into it right now Lasse!!!

[Lasse D]

You must have the feeling that the victory is earned - not just given to you :D

 

Edit. If my calculations are correct and Holodoc gives points for all answers, then we should be neck-to-neck. It then comes down to 3 pointers, where you have a slight advantage (9 to 0, or something like that).

I will answer in colours. Red=0, green=1, bold=3 points.

1 2 3 4 5 6 = 6 points

1 2 that's what Skaldyr already wrote in his answer3  3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20. = total: 19 points

I have to admit I was tended to give just one point for alle the same answers, but answer 13 made me change my mind.

 

THE FINAL RESULTS ARE:

Skalldyr: 30
LasseD: 29 
Redhead: 12
MstrOfPppts: 5
Quarry: 4
elleana: 3
L@go: 3
BobDeQuatre: 1
eiker86: 1

Congratulations Skalldyr! And a special mentioning goes to LasseD for very unusual answers and for being a very close 2nd!

So we have come to the end of the countdown and I would like to thank all of you participating, commenting, being great friends and taking not all of it too seriously!
I reckon we are in great mood for the upcoming days = mission accomplished!

See you all soon in BILLUND!

Wow first of all we have to thank you Holodoc for making this possible every year! The last 10 days to the event are always special because of your countdown!

And then I have to say that it was a good challenge this year. Especially with Lasse going crazy in the end! Totally as close as you predicted Lasse! 

Always fun and see you tomorrow :)

[Lasse D]

Haha! I totally misread that double answer. Good challenge, and congrats Mr. Crab.
