starstreak Posted January 23, 2011 Posted January 23, 2011 Anybody else had missing pieces? I started building mine and I opened bag set #1. And I'm missing parts for the hat rack and even the owl rack. I only have book #1 with me, but the parts is the dk brown 2x pieces that holds the name of the hat rack. And the brown stick that holds the owl. I stopped building at that point. I remember opening 5 #1 bags. Does it sound like I'm missing a bag? Quote
fred67 Posted January 23, 2011 Posted January 23, 2011 I don't recall how many of each bag there was... has anyone gotten around to doing a "proper" EB style review? However, this was a fairly difficult build and getting the colors based on the instructions can be really hard - I'd go back and double-check. Quote
starstreak Posted January 23, 2011 Author Posted January 23, 2011 I was going to do a review on the set, but ran into this problem. :( I don't recall how many of each bag there was... has anyone gotten around to doing a "proper" EB style review? However, this was a fairly difficult build and getting the colors based on the instructions can be really hard - I'd go back and double-check. Quote
fred67 Posted January 23, 2011 Posted January 23, 2011 That's what I'm saying - I know you're not an idiot, but double check the figures you made to make sure you gave them the correct color bars for wands, and make sure you're getting the colors from the instructions right; I was in a decently lit room (near a window) and still had problems discerning the colors in the instructions.

starstreak Posted January 23, 2011 Author Posted January 23, 2011 I didn't mean to imply that. I was talking about if there was a "Proper" review. I was going to be doing one on this at a later date. And now that you mentioned Wands... NONE of my characters has wands. So I don't have ANY brown sticks from my bags #1... Now I'm really wondering if I'm missing something... I have the map. I have completed characters. So if the brown wands was in any of those bags(where the figs came from), I must be missing them. Hmm... That's what I'm saying - I know you're not an idiot, but double check the figures you made to make sure you gave them the correct color bars for wands, and make sure you're getting the colors from the instructions right; I was in a decently lit room (near a window) and still had problems discerning the colors in the instructions.

prateek Posted January 23, 2011 Posted January 23, 2011 Just call Lego and ask for a replacement. Quote
fred67 Posted January 23, 2011 Posted January 23, 2011 You sure it's not in an unnumbered bag? I got the box from my trash and it's got five empty "1" bags. Quote
starstreak Posted January 23, 2011 Author Posted January 23, 2011 @prateek- I'm holding off a bit. since I didn't open all the other bags, I don't want to call them multiple times for one set. :) You sure it's not in an unnumbered bag? I got the box from my trash and it's got five empty "1" bags. I know there was a un numbered bag in the #1 bags. I'm pretty sure I didn't toss it. I'll check the trash again for the 3rd time. Augh. ppl already threw food in the trash... update: YES! You confirmed 5 bags with the number #1. I waded into the trash AGAIN. I found 4 bags with the #1 and 2 unnumbered bags. So I'm missing one #1. I'm hoping it's at home. It's the 1st bag one the top left. I can see other things I'm missing like the yellow lights. Whew. I hope it's at home. Quote
starstreak Posted January 24, 2011 Author Posted January 24, 2011 Thanks for the ideas people. Yay. I got home. It's on the floor. Must've fell out when I was unboxing it. Whew. @prateek- I'm holding off a bit. since I didn't open all the other bags, I don't want to call them multiple times for one set. :) I know there was a un numbered bag in the #1 bags.

prateek Posted January 24, 2011 Posted January 24, 2011 So you unboxed it, and then took it to your building area? Why not take the whole box? Quote
starstreak Posted January 24, 2011 Author Posted January 24, 2011 No space. I normally build at work while on lunch break. Since this set is so big, I took only part 1 bags knowing I wouldn't finish it and get to bag 2 yet. So you unboxed it, and then took it to your building area? Why not take the whole box? Quote
Cara Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 Eeps! You put it in the trash! I got the box from my trash Quote
starstreak Posted January 25, 2011 Author Posted January 25, 2011 No,no. I threw the empty bags in the trash. I found the unlocked bag at home. Eeps! You put it in the trash! Quote
Tabris Posted January 27, 2011 Posted January 27, 2011 How is the review coming along? I am really looking forward for a review in the web. Quote
