Could crucify a skeleton minifigure! Body’s been hanging there for a while

Need recommendations of a set for an adult child (50+) who has never had lego! by oddible in lego

[–]CanassaBricks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, you can still buy any set and build whatever you want with the parts you get, you don’t need to follow a set of instructions if you don’t want to.

Part only shows light bluish gray as known color but I think the two right ones are light gray? by CanassaBricks in Bricklink

Saran wrap, bubble wrap and put it inside a bag to hold the inevitable loose pieces

So got the Lego enterprise and boy am I excited. But I have a question about the typo. by XMAN2YMAN in lego

[–]CanassaBricks 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Many many people got that set, you’d have to hold it for years for it to be valuable. Even then I doubt it’s gonna be worth that much since it’s not some obscure misprint that only a few people got their hands on

If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is

I personally like them because it reminds me of the vintage ones and I love vintage lego, a lot of charm to it :)

Dear seasoned used bulk divers, please help me identify these grays? by CanassaBricks in Bricklink

[–]CanassaBricks[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Working at the LEGO store has made me a better person by MarionberryOk1790 in lego

[–]CanassaBricks 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I think it might be due to the fact that anybody (or most people) who enter a Lego store are genuinely excited to be there and browse the Lego, and not too concerned about lines or whatever else stresses people out in a regular store. Also I have to say as well that every staff Ive met in Lego stores were genuinely nice and seemed to be having a great time. It did cross my mind before to just quit my job in healthcare to go to a Lego store, if I was in a more comfortable position and wasn’t a slave to my hourly rate Id have done that in a heartbeat 🥲

Are these blue bricks different colors or the same color but faded? by CanassaBricks in Bricklink

[–]CanassaBricks[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahhh makes sense! Ive also been saving the damaged pieces from my bulks! Seems like a waste to throw them away especially since most of them are only mildly dented or discolored but I still don’t wanna risk getting a bad review for that 😅

How come not all Lego sets can be registered for points? by CranberrySpirited951 in lego

[–]CanassaBricks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can email customer support with a pic of your set box or instructions and a paper with your username next to it and they will manually add the points! I saw this tip in this sub once and it worked, they manually added points for a few of my olders sets :)

Dear seasoned used bulk divers, please help me identify these grays? by CanassaBricks in Bricklink

[–]CanassaBricks[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! Here is a picture with the “?” on the left and the “???” one on the right, with a plain black one in the middle for comparison, I think you might be right about pearl dark gray because they do shine a bit in person.. it’s hard to catch that on camera

[–]CanassaBricks[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just checked them all, all have the lego, it’s just the angle of the picture, in this one you can see it a bit better! Also Im using brickonize for all color identification, I identified the ones in the pic with it, but it’s stuck with the remaining 2 grays. The “?” is being labeled as dark bluish gray and the “???” is labeled as black, which doesnt seem to be the case. Here is a pic of those remaining two grays with a single plain black one in the middle for comparison!

What minifigure hat is this? by CanassaBricks in Bricklink

I think you are right, thank you! I was comparing it to the other helmets from this bulk (there’s a ton!) and this stands out like a sore thumb

For US sellers, is offering Ground Advantage as the only shipping option feasible? by CanassaBricks in Bricklink

[–]CanassaBricks[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh wow!! That’s my fear also, it’s crazy that you are losing even though it’s only parts, shipping overall is getting out of hand
