ringonu Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 I filled a large cup packed full with 1x1 trans round plates. Any idea how many fit in a cup? I looked online and couldn't find a count. I assume I am not the only one crazy enough to fill a cup with 1x1 flat pieces. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scissorino Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 I'm sure you're not but that's pretty crazy! What will you use them for?

Scissorino Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Not bad! Half the cost of the PAB! Wrong colour windows for the 7740 :-( I sold 125 in an auction for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far I have made a St. Louis Rams logo and plan on making a Detroit lions logo for my wife. Whatever keeps her happy. I will probably sell my leftovers on ebay and recoup some of the cost.

Scissorino Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Nice idea! Would like to try some mosaics. I make mosaics using the 15x15 baseplates.

Wrong colour windows for the 7740 :-( It would be neater than the solution I have come up with, and I think half of it will be the wrong color due to missing pieces.

I will probably sell my leftovers on ebay and recoup some of the cost. I have just listed approx 80 1x1 lights. And they were no more than a third of a large tub, so at a guess you could get approx 2500+ in one. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CNH1974 Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 I might ask about it the next time I am in there - which may be next week. I was planning to refill my large tub - which took me a good 20 minutes last time. How big is the box compared to the tub? I managed to get 400g into a large tub last time. I wonder if they would be less co-operative if they knew I was re-selling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CNH1974 Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Do the 1x2 plates, 1x1 round tiles & the SNOT bricks go for much? I have some 2x2 yellow and grey tiles for sale, and there are a lot more watchers on the grey pieces. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest eightbrick Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Do the 1x2 plates, 1x1 round tiles & the SNOT bricks go for much? I have some 2x2 yellow and grey tiles for sale, and there are a lot more watchers on the grey pieces. Yeah definitely the grey ones are going to be more popular with pretty much anyone actually building something lol Here's the Bricklink values for: SNOT Brick $0.28 1x1 Round tiles $0.11 1x2 lavender plates $0.09 Those are some pretty high prices for those pieces! I would say you could make the most with the round tiles; you could probably fill at least 2K into a cup so that would end up creating 220 dollars in bricklink revenue, over ten times return (convert to PAB! convert to PAB!)! I would go for these suckers if you see them you can even sell them on ebay, people are selling them in lots of 100 and stuff. When I wrote that PAB article, it would have been great to have such a good example like this. It seems Lego is finally getting good pieces.

Guest TabbyBoy Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Forgive my ignorance but, are SNOT bricks called that because they look like bogies (boogers)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, I thought something like that too before, but alas, Lego fans are not that interesting when they name stuff. It stands for Studs Not On Top, meaning you can attach bricks to the sides of it.
