You are right about being wrong! :tongue: That's a system pony. Why would a Belville horse be smaller than a system horse? :laugh:

Sorry to make fun of you, I'm just having fun at your expense, that's all. Here's the Bricklink page on that pony piece...

I just acquired that piece recently. A very nice French man found Belville set 6404 in a toy shop and sent me one. :wub:

I found it on Peeron. I love that site.

If it is a soft cloth cape, then no. They come with viking and castle stuff and star wars royal guards.

It was a hard cape and not as big as the the cloth ones only going down to the end of the torso.

Why would a system pony come in a Belville set? That's a Paradisa set. :tongue:

Sorry to make fun of you, I'm just having fun at your expense, since you had fun at his expense. :pir_laugh2:

I must admit, it's a great little set, and the same one from whence my pony came.

Hinckley: 2

Shadows: 1

Me: 0

I was wondering why you said Belville and not Paradisa. :tongue:

I also have a weird flag piece: it's reversed in the way it curves. Instead of going up, down, up, down, mine goes down, up, down, up. I know other people have had this problem, and I'm wonder if TLG did it on purpose... by the way, I got this flag piece in Motorcycle Chase.

Right right. One of the girly ones. They all look the same to me. :blush:

Since this has gone way beyond the realm of Vader's Red Helmet, I'm going to move this to General LEGO discussion forum...

Oh my!

You stole our topic :sceptic:

Actually I've considered moving it for a while.

Just never got around to actually doing it.

Now people show of those rare pieces :thumbup:

This seller carries quite a few such pieces. Notice the (super expensive) trans-clear ghosts in particular. :tongue:

I have numerous rare pieces (unique to a set, etc.) in my collection but not any of these test molds that never appeared in any official set.

Sorry the picture is heavy, so the one on the left is the misprint if you can't see it, it is smooth while the right one is a normal one.And I got it from set 6212.

I believe that this belongs here. As for the actual misprint, I'm not exactly sure how that would happen, although I think Imperial Shadows would buy it from you :tongue: .

How exactly is that a "misprint"? They're both two different molds. :wacko:

Leia isn't supposed to have smooth hair. :sceptic: They are both the same mold, one just doesn't have the hair detail on it.

No, it belongs here, the Star Wars misprint topic. :tongue:

Anywho, this is a creepy mistake. I think you can get the piece correctly for free. By the way, what makes the picture "heavy?" It seems more blurry to me. :laugh:

I know that she isn't supposed to have smooth hair, but isn't this more of a "mis-mold" instead of a "misprint"? :tongue:

I wonder how this could have happened, though? Maybe the smooth hair was a prototype that accidentally got into a set?

There's that word again, Marty; "heavy". Why are things so heavy in the future? Is there a problem with the earth's gravitational pull?

Okay, I checked when I got home and sure enough, the Leia I got from the X-Wing set has the messed up hair. Wonder if there was just a bad batch at one time.

Yep I have this too which was quite annoying considering it was with my first Leia from the X-wing. :sceptic: . Lucky then that TLG has an excellent customer service department and they sent me a replacement straight away as well as an Indy Keyring and I got to keep the mis-molded hair! Not a bad haul I would say :classic: .

haha it reminds me of chocolate :laugh: . Its a really interesting mis-mold or misprint whatever you want to call it and some one would pay a fair bit for that.

It's interesting, I'd like to see a much clearer picture to compare some things, but at first glance I'd call it an underfill, a brick that didn't get as much ABS injected as it was supposed to. Can't really see any other natural way for that to happen. Unnaturally, someone could sand and polish, I guess.

I think Imperial Shadows would buy it from you :tongue: .

Am I that predictable? :laugh:
