Derek Posted November 18, 2007 Posted November 18, 2007 (edited) I know many of you purists will cringe at the thought of this, but what is the lego piece you have in your collection that is most different from when you got it. In other words, which is most deformed. It can be anything from you dog tried to eat it, or *gasp* you PURPOSELY altered it X-O . I think this has the potential to become a very interesting and funny thread. Dont make your stories TOO scary, *skull* DP8 Edited November 18, 2007 by darthperson8 Quote
Wout Posted November 18, 2007 Posted November 18, 2007 I once felt by accident on a blue lego window from a crane set from the second half of the eighties, so it was a bit altered, but it was not in pieces. Quote
SirNadroj Posted November 18, 2007 Posted November 18, 2007 I've gotten my share of officially deformed pieces. For example, I was opening my 1x1's straight from the bag (for my mosaics) and I got one that was completely flat with no stud! X-O Quote

SirNadroj Posted November 18, 2007 Posted November 18, 2007 isnt that a tile? 8-| No, it was originally a 1x1 plate, but the stud was pressed in, so there was no stud and no underside to it. Quote
ExoBuilder Posted November 19, 2007 Posted November 19, 2007 I've gotten a minifig head that had two of the identical faces on each side. Quote
Username_Taken Posted November 19, 2007 Posted November 19, 2007 I've gotten a minifig head that had two of the identical faces on each side. Thats pretty cool. do you have pics of it if u kept it? :-) Quote
iamded Posted November 19, 2007 Posted November 19, 2007 My worst is probably my customised KK swords. I had plenty of them, and they were boring, so I cut them up. <shock! X-O horror!> I also got left with small pieces of silver for my treasure box. :-P X-D ~Peace Quote

X-O horror!> I also got left with small pieces of silver for my treasure box. :-P __________ That actually works really well as treasure! X-O *y* I have a heap (emphasis on HEAP) of old bricks that have hundreds of bite marks on them, as I used to chew on them when I was young as I was building! :-D Batbrick Away! >:-) Quote
Plural Posted November 19, 2007 Posted November 19, 2007 I have a heap (emphasis on HEAP) of old bricks that have hundreds of bite marks on them, as I used to chew on them when I was young as I was building! My oldest memory from when I was young was being told to spit out a brick I was trying to separate from another. Thank goodness for Brick Separators! :-) Quote

SirNadroj Posted November 19, 2007 Posted November 19, 2007 Oh yeah, I forgot the LEGO keychain massacre of 07'! :'-( :-( ;-) Quote
Captain Green Hair Posted November 19, 2007 Posted November 19, 2007 I have to admit to cutting up some pieces....... but they were all put to good use! :-D Most of my older bricks have bitemarks too, i still use my teath sometime, when i can't find the deamn separator.. 8- Quote
Derek Posted November 20, 2007 Author Posted November 20, 2007 Oh yeah, I forgot the LEGO keychain massacre of 07'! :'-( :-( ;-) How many casualties?! :'-) Quote
ExoBuilder Posted November 20, 2007 Posted November 20, 2007 Sadly, I did not save my dual sided head :'-( It was one of the classic smilies. Quote
TheFrisian Posted November 20, 2007 Posted November 20, 2007 My oldest memory from when I was young was being told to spit out a brick I was trying to separate from another. Thank goodness for Brick Separators! :-) That is soooo recognizable! I've got a lot of really old LEGO bricks covered with bitemarks (probably not mine though). I have also modified and painted spare/old parts in the past, with some interesting results. My favorite modification may be simple, but I still like it: a two handed sword made out of a silver broadsword and a lightsaber hilt. I'm surprised the glue still holds after all these years!

yovnocrats Posted November 21, 2007 Posted November 21, 2007 i self modified a cape into a new piece of clothing, but it was for a custom i'm very passionate about, so i figure it's ok. Quote
Voodoo Hand Posted November 22, 2007 Posted November 22, 2007 I worked on re-modeling spears for a project (sorry, can't tell any details atm) and I modded some tiles. One 1x4 became a licence plate and a 2x2 with a 1x2 were pasted together and got a T.I.R. sign and a 80km sign (TIR = Transport International Route. and the 80 is for trucks, they can not go harder as 80 km/h in The Netherlands). The Tiles were for my first competition which I unfortunatly lost thanks to the colors I used according to the judges. But what I don't understand is that another with way more colors DID win! But yeah, I cutt-up peaces if I have enough of them to get new parts or what I need. Quote
Faramir Posted November 24, 2007 Posted November 24, 2007 I don't think you can see it in the picture, but the is a small bitemark under the right eye of my sigifg. :'-( I also must confess to cutting kk swords, if I'd known how great they look as treasure I'd have kept the bits of silver stuff... :-| Quote
Derek Posted November 24, 2007 Author Posted November 24, 2007 I worked on re-modeling spears for a project (sorry, can't tell any details atm)... What's it a super secret government project? Are you making weapons of mass destruction out of Lego??? I'm on to you. DP8 Quote
iamded Posted November 25, 2007 Posted November 25, 2007 I also must confess to cutting kk swords, if I'd known how great they look as treasure I'd have kept the bits of silver stuff... :-| Can I take that as a compliment? X-D ~Peace Quote
joseph-lowell Posted November 26, 2007 Posted November 26, 2007 my bricks had it pretty ruff, i used to melt them bend the plates and cut holes to make props and stuff. the worst is the 40 or so tires, in wich i removed from the wheels and chewed on until they fell apart. one at a time of course, and over the course of 5 years or so ;-) Quote
ExoBuilder Posted November 27, 2007 Posted November 27, 2007 Aww I feel bad for the little guy....Atleast he's not a Lego JarJar. Quote
