Survey: New parts and new colors

[Borex]

I'd like to see a hairpiece appropriate to colored minifigs. Not a big afro, but just decent black curls. They could be in more colors too (yellow and red for example).

But with all these licensed sets they need to stop giving black people the lame hairpiece they be giving them now.

I'd like to see part 2340, Tail 4 x 1 x 3, be produced in orange again. With all of the new arctic sets using orange, having this part will help us make arctic-themed MOCs of boats, planes and submarines.

Here it is in white:

Can I nominate the 1 x 4 x 2 panel in trans-smoke?

I have quite a few places where that would be useful...

[ronenson]

I would really like to see a smaller PF battery box than the 88000. Preferably in such a way that it

can fit various patterns on the side but still be within 4 wide. Also lower would be great, so that I can

fit it on the bottom of a train instead of trying to hide it on top.

After setting up the wife's Winter Village, having a ton of the CMF type figure stand pieces in white would be incredibly useful.

Good call... I'm using a bunch of white plates (of various sizes, as I'll put a few figures standing together). White CMF plates would be great.

EDIT: as luck would have it, I got the Target minifigure exclusives today... and they come with the display stand piece in LBG.

For a MOC I'm currently building, I could use some tiles 1x1 (Bricklink-part no.: 3070b) in dark orange.

And for some future MOC's, I think cheese slopes (Bricklink-part no.: 54200) in dark orange would be a welcome addition

Looks like my wishes have come true. Dark orange tiles 1x1 appear in set 76052 Batman Classic TV Series Batcave and dark orange cheese slopes appear in sets 75089 Geonosis Troopers and 31044 Park Animals.

Yes and in various different colors as well! They're super useful in dioramas, especially in space themed MOCs.

Part 18909 (https://alpha.bricklink.com/pages/clone/catalogitem.page?P=18909&idColor=68#T=P&C=68) in trans colors. Then it'd be perfect for spaceships!

[PicnicBasketSam]

1x2 baby bows in trans colors! That'd be great for headlights and microscale spaceships. Also Kylo Ren's lightsaber blade in solid colors, I can see a lot of potential uses for that.

I wasn't aware of this piece until recently, and yes, I would like to see this piece in transparent colors too! They would work great for 20's, 30's comic strip sci-fi rocketcraft MOCs ( Buck Rogers, Flash Gordon fare), especially with the advent of S17's Retro Space Hero figure! Looking around, there are not many MOCs fitting that bill around, maybe with the exception of some of Chris Giddon's pre-classic space creations.

A type of piece at times I found would be useful would be slope versions of bricks like part no. 6565/6564 and 41768/41767 (both pictured below). They could have 1 by 2, 1 by 3, and even 1 by 4 slopes as opposed to a flat side on the side changing direction.

No, it would be angled from end to end, instead of transitioning from angled to vertical. It would be a way of shifting an angle left or right a stud.

[Digger of Bricks]

Another part pair that would be nice to see would be an inverse of part no. 42060/42061 pictured below.  Same can be said for its smaller counterpart.

[Space Police XVIII]

These would be nice.

[Takanuinuva]

A ball cup version of this would be great for technic builds

Something that looks like this

Wange brand, set JX001 came with 25 of them.

Good quality, exactly the same thickness as a Lego plate.

[Japanbuilder]

I would like studded slope pieces. (studs on the sloped face)

[mocbuild101]

I would like more dark blue parts, especially in Technic parts, it's such a nice colour! 

[Digger of Bricks]

A plate with the footprint of Nexo Knights part no. 22391 would be great to roof Nexo Knights windshield part no. 22483, so the windshield could be utilized in automobile MOCs.

Also, I'm hope to see more parts made in the presumably new Copper Metallic color introduced in winter 2017 Ninjago sets for Vermillion swords.

That would be cool, but I'm not sure it would work geometry wise.

Come to think of it now, a better part solution to the roof/plate part I proposed would be a two plate height part with the same proposed part no. 22391 footprint that would be similar to part no. 45677 pictured below, with "cheese sloped" edges. This would allow just a little more headroom for a minifigure.

[JGuy]

An inverse 1x1 cheese slope would be amazing
