 @SNIPE That part was on the EOL list for PaB parts and on clearance sale 50% off, so they won't restock that part ever. BL is your only hope. I too missed out on some Technic EOL parts that were 50% off in December, but the resellers quickly gulped up all the stock and now BL is full of them. Win-Win for TLG because they get money twice.

I had similar experiences, but I had not quite understood the explanation. Thanks for the this - it's good to know for the future!

Here's a better look at the new Technic part used in combination with those new gear rack plates we saw in the Education sets:

The new nike 43025 has transparent "banana" gear. Now you can build transparent 42055:).

yeah I really want some Z beams but no axle holes, as there 1001 ways to mesh an axle to pinhole anyway, so all pinholes would be more useful, and 2L high instead of 3L

I could see some good use for both of these in some of my builds.
