medib Posted February 21, 2012 Posted February 21, 2012 The friends bike looks like its Azure...not light blue Quote
JasperL Posted February 21, 2012 Posted February 21, 2012 Speaking of rare and expensive parts, can anyone tell me why this guy is for sale from 70 upto 1000 euro? Why is he so special? http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?M=ovr023 Quote

Why is he so special? http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?M=ovr023 I believe this minfigure was given out to Lego factory employees, or during the factory tour, if my memory serves. Quote
LegoSjaak Posted February 21, 2012 Posted February 21, 2012 Maybe this little guy knows more about brand-new City buildings for 2013..... or he might know about the release of a new steamtrain in 2013....who knows.....Maybe that is why he is so expensive... Greetz, LegoSjaak Quote
medib Posted February 21, 2012 Posted February 21, 2012 All he needs is a white beard and he would fit in as the maintenance guy in the new modular town hall. Quote
Piranha Posted February 21, 2012 Posted February 21, 2012 The one in the "Friends" theme is of a light blue color it looks like, not the standard blue? And the one at LEGO World appears to be another shade of blue too. The friends bike looks like its Azure...not light blue Quote
woolie Posted February 22, 2012 Posted February 22, 2012 This makes me want to go out and buy the bicycle in every color :( Quote
Vindicare Posted February 23, 2012 Posted February 23, 2012 I hope we see more colors. I got so excited to see first the green bike in 8404 and the white bike in 7498. I still need to get the white bike. I got the previous incarnation of the Police Station. So I wasn't going to buy it just for a bike. I'm going to eBay it, along with yellow, black and pink. Quote
Jargo Posted February 23, 2012 Posted February 23, 2012 I hope for a silver bike. Metallic silver. Nice and neutral but with its own form of glitz. Metallic blue or green would be good too. Quote
Vindicare Posted February 24, 2012 Posted February 24, 2012 I hope for a silver bike. Metallic silver. Nice and neutral but with its own form of glitz. Metallic blue or green would be good too. Ooh, a pearl silver bike would be cool. Quote
morganm Posted February 24, 2012 Posted February 24, 2012 You could just take a white one and dye it blue http://www.minifigcustomizationnetwork.com/howto/1675 Quote
Jargo Posted February 25, 2012 Posted February 25, 2012 (edited) Too messy. I'd rather just buy genuine Lego. I was just messing about and did some recolouring to see how other colours might look alongside existing colours. I love some of these and now feel like Lego should retire the red bike completely and do a new colour every time a bike is included in a set. So many colours in the Lego palette and they're still shoving red bikes in sets. Insanity! Edited February 25, 2012 by Brickenhead-town-dweller Quote
jonwil Posted February 25, 2012 Posted February 25, 2012 I too would love to see the Bike in sets in any color other than red, black or green. Quote

Insanity! Great job! I love that olive green one! A lot of those colors would translate well on the bike. I'd also like to see some wheel colors too. Maybe some variety in wheel design also. Not sure how hard it'd be to make bike wheels, however. jonwil:I'd like to see more black bikes, though. I missed out out those. Quote
Redhead1982 Posted February 26, 2012 Posted February 26, 2012 Great work there! I agree 100%. So many colours in the Lego palette and they're still shoving red bikes in sets. Insanity! I have enough red bikes, and including more colours would be great! My favourite colours (from your pic) are all four blues, dark green and lime, and dark pearl gray. Actually, any of these colours would be great! Quote
Sir Stig Posted September 4, 2015 Posted September 4, 2015 (edited) I dont get what the hype about the trans red is. It's hideous. Collectors....pfftt... The good ones, IMO: white, the blue ones, the green, the black. And, well the red one, but everyone has at least one red bike, so it gets a bit boring. Edited September 4, 2015 by Sir Stig Quote
Legostar Posted August 11, 2018 Posted August 11, 2018 I was watching the lego movie and noticed in the scene where Emmet is first seen getting out of bed, there is a blue bicycle leaning against the right wall. Quote
jonwil Posted August 16, 2018 Posted August 16, 2018 I wish they would re-issue the yellow bike, it would fit well with the postal stuff (in fact IIRC the yellow bike only ever came in a single postal themed set) Quote
