L@go Posted January 31, 2016 Posted January 31, 2016 Anybody know if this is a legitimate Lego piece? If so, where is it from? http://www.ebay.ca/i...W-/350355145600 https://alpha.bricklink.com/pages/clone/catalogitem.page?P=71598#T=C It appears to be from the late-90s Aquazone theme. Quote
Junior Shark Posted February 26, 2016 Posted February 26, 2016 (edited) OK, so I bought a bag of Lego from a thrift store last night. It had a whole mess of teal (!! ) and these two pieces. I've since identified the trans piece as Lego, but what's the blue hinge piece? It says Lego, so I assume it's authentic, plus there were no 3rd party bricks in bag. Any help? Edit: Forgot pic!

GallardoLU Posted February 26, 2016 Posted February 26, 2016 the blue hinge is an 80s car jack, http://brickset.com/sets/1497-1/Pitstop-and-Crew Quote
GovBroadsword Posted February 27, 2016 Posted February 27, 2016 (edited) Hi I bought a big box of Lego that came with no instructions. I'm working my way through identifying sets from rare parts. For the parts shown, I can't find a number of it that would enable me to do a search on Bricklink. For the assemblies, they may be the last owner's design but I suspect some are from sets Thanks for any help. Larger res image available on my Brickshelf page if needed. Lightning piece - Unique surely - but even googling I can't find the transfer number The cart - I thought looked like a Castle one I had as a kid but the yellow round bits don't fit. There is some old castle in the box as there are a couple of red Crusaders in there. The blue technic assembly - I think there is a small blue technic set in the box http://www.brickshel...x/parts-lrg.jpg Edited February 27, 2016 by GovBroadsword Quote
antp Posted February 27, 2016 Posted February 27, 2016 The "lightning piece" is from http://brickset.com/sets/6671-1/Utility-Repair-Lift I've that once since I was kid :) Quote
GovBroadsword Posted February 27, 2016 Posted February 27, 2016 Many thanks - and what a lovely little set! I'll try to find all the bits this afternoon Quote
Ophidian Posted February 27, 2016 Posted February 27, 2016 The black assembley next to the "lightning piece" could be from set 1712 Quote
GallardoLU Posted February 27, 2016 Posted February 27, 2016 (edited) Gray section with dark green looks to be part of the Star Wars Turbo tank: http://brickset.com/...lone-Turbo-Tank Edited February 27, 2016 by GallardoLU Quote
Kalais Posted February 27, 2016 Posted February 27, 2016 (edited) Hello, can you tell me which color is that? DBG LBG ??? Standard Blue Thanks Edit: Found more blues to compare: Blue | Trans-light Blue | Medium Azure | ??? | LBG | DBG Edited February 27, 2016 by Kalais Quote
zux Posted February 28, 2016 Posted February 28, 2016 The blue technic assembly - I think there is a small blue technic set in the boxBlue Technic pieces are from 8437 set. Quote
Kalais Posted February 28, 2016 Posted February 28, 2016 simply medium blue ? I think that too, I was looking for confirmation since I don't own other blues to compare. Thanks! Quote
Blondie-Wan Posted February 28, 2016 Posted February 28, 2016 hi thanks sid got to buy a new canopy for the millennium falcon, stood on it and its a bit bent and oh boy did it hurt Where would be the best place to get it from sid any ideas will I'd try LEGO's Customer Service first. Quote
Artanis I Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 I think that too, I was looking for confirmation since I don't own other blues to compare. Thanks! It looks like medium blue and probably is, but there are a few rare blues that are similar. Just something to be aware of. Quote
Kalais Posted March 1, 2016 Posted March 1, 2016 Hello, I still got problem with figuring out that color. It is not medium blue, because I found finally medium blue to compare and it is different. Here is the photo, doors are medium blue, and other bricks are: Blue ??? Medium Blue | Medium Azure Quote
Artanis I Posted March 1, 2016 Posted March 1, 2016 Known colours on BL for 1x2 brick are: http://alpha.bricklink.com/pages/clone/catalogitem.page?id=280#T=C Blue, blue-violet, bright light blue, dark azure, dark blue, light aqua, maersk blue, medium azure, medium blue, sand blue. If the bottom right is medium azure, then the 1x2 brick is probably dark azure. Quote
Kalais Posted March 1, 2016 Posted March 1, 2016 Thx! I crossed out colors which i am 100% sure it is not that color Blue, blue-violet, bright light blue, dark azure, dark blue, light aqua, maersk blue, medium azure, medium blue, sand blue So I think you are right - dark azure, because it is to light to be dark blue. I am almost sure it is not maersk blue and almost sure it is not sand blue. Quote
BirdOPrey5 Posted March 1, 2016 Posted March 1, 2016 (edited) Hello, I still got problem with figuring out that color. It is not medium blue, because I found finally medium blue to compare and it is different. Here is the photo, doors are medium blue, and other bricks are: Blue ??? Medium Blue | Medium Azure If the bottom left 1x1 is Medium Blue then that door is Medium Blue. It's the same color, even loaded it into my photo editor just in case I'm color blind, the only difference in color between the door and the bottom left 1x1 brick is from the shadow caused by those bricks being on top. Here i copied a circle from the door to the 1x1 brick, aside from the shadow it's identical. Edited March 1, 2016 by BirdOPrey5 Quote
Kalais Posted March 1, 2016 Posted March 1, 2016 Of course, I wrote that in my post ;) The question is about brick 1x2 in the middle. doors are medium blue, and other bricks are: Blue ??? Medium Blue | Medium Azure Quote
Rolli Posted March 1, 2016 Posted March 1, 2016 The question is about brick 1x2 in the middle. I'm certain you are looking for dark azure. Mærsk Blue is basically Medium Blue with a hint of green. Dark Blue is way darker, Sand Blue totally desaturated in comparison to other shades of blue. For reference the left third of this image is quite helpful to define colours if you lack bricks or experience. Quote
Kalais Posted March 1, 2016 Posted March 1, 2016 Thx! P.S. This image is kinda useless w/o names of the colors tho. I clicked link in photo's desc but it is some spam site with no LEGO at all. Quote
tkatt Posted March 1, 2016 Posted March 1, 2016 ^Looks like you got your answer, if you're still looking for one here is a link to a nice color chart on Swooshable. Quote
antp Posted March 2, 2016 Posted March 2, 2016 That must be indeed dark azure. There is also a rare weird shade of blue not precisely identified: but that one is closer to regular blue (that I posted earlier in this thread, and it was backlinked from that page) Quote
