It's Breez from Hero Factory, year 2013: http://brickset.com/sets/44006-1/BREEZ

Hero Factory has been replaced with Bionicle, so it would be ideal to buy some of these: http://brickset.com/sets/tag-Okoto

Propably the wrong place to ask this, but can that Hero Factory badge on the chest be connected to regular system pieces in any way? Will the pegs on the back fit anywhere or is this an entirely separate connection system?

Oh, that makes sense. I was actually looking at the Bionicle sets as they were very similar but they didn't look quite the same. I'll look into those as well. Thanks.

The pegs on the Hero Core (and on some of the larger armor pieces) are the same 3.2mm width as the handles of minifigure accessories like swords, megaphones, and lightsaber blades, meaning they can fit perfectly into clips or hollow studs. There are even some sets that use this, like 76026, which uses a Hero Factory/CCBS chest plate for the front panel of the Bat-Mech.

ok, I'm normally very good at distinguishing pieces from other brands and Lego parts BUT i just cant tell on this one. I've had them for a very long time (early 90s late 80s i believe) no numbers, no logo, thickness is 1.5 plates tall enough for studs in both sides without touching. feels like Lego plastic, and has comparable clutching strength. if you know anything about these ones I'm very interested to know where they came from.

thanks for the thread, that lines up with what I have here really well. I've a few old Tyco parts (no complete models) so it must have came from those. now the question is to use or not to use :tongue:

Thanks :)

They might prove useful as detailing on buildings.

Hey GallardoLU, pretty sure those are Tyco per BirdOPrey5. I've seen them before and have been tempted to use them as well. I try to be a purist when making MOCs to post here, but sometimes, especially when working with minifigs, I stray just a little.

I think they are for changing stud direction, for example, in an instance when you need studs to face each other.

And RogerSmtih, those badges make pretty cool decor. If they were a smidge smaller, I'd cut the pegs and glue one to a torso for a cool super hero design (I know, blasphemy)!

Hello everyone,

I am new to EuroBricks and this might not be the correct form, but I am trying to identifying some parts. I would like to reproduce this chair in the img I have posted, but I have no idea how he is getting that angle on the back rest. Can anyone help me out by letting me know the parts that are involved?

thank you for your help

Thanks CopMike,

It is a wedge plate, but I am more confused by the slight angle of them both in relation to the backing. The wedge plates are not sitting flush. Maybe this is more a question of building technique.

Anyone have ideas how this is pulled off and what parts would be involved?

My guess is that there are two different modified plates with clip (one of these and one of these) attached to the lower part of those wedge plates and then to a short bar, possibly a 3- or 4L, which is then inserted into a jumper plate (or another clip) behind the chair assembly.

I'm not at home so I can't check with my bricks, but it seems like it would make that angle nicely.

Hey

I have been looking through the forum where I could post this and I didn't find it, so I post it here...

Is there some forum where I should post to be able to find where a piece comes from?

So my Question:

I have a White 1x2 tile with the (black) inscription PA7 70 on it.

I looked it up on Peeron, but I didn't find it there.

I looked at Brickset and there I found it, but it said it was in 0 sets.

So where does this come from...

It could be that I have it from a PAB-wall, but I seriously don't know.

If anybody can help me, that would be great.

Oh and if this post belongs somewhere else, it would be nice to know where...

It came with the crash test dummy in the Collectable Minifigures series 1.

I've merged this thread with the "Help with identifying parts/sets!" thread.

Thank you!

Both for identifying and moving this here.

I didn't see this thread, although I looked around a lot, maybe it's a good idea to put a link for it in the newbie-thread.

Anyone have any ideas what/where this wooden box is from? I'm not sure whether or not it's supposed to contain bricks or not but I am pretty sure it's missing a couple of space dividers from the removable top "container" as it does have those grooves on the edges. We found this while getting rid of some old stuff someone had left behind to a vacated appartment. We've got no use for this box, so I'm basically trying to find out what it is so that I can find out if anyone could have any interest in it.

Seems to be this one?: http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?G=wood04

Absolutely gorgeous btw! Would love to have one of those!

Found these sitting in a pile we were sorting. Does anyone recognize these or was someone just being creative?

It looks like the later one to me. From what I can tell it is some tiles on some plates.
