I am back with some more shocking discoveries, LOL. I noticed there are darker and lighter versions of Trans-Dark Pink and Trans Orange. The difference is small but I swear I can see it. While scrutinizing these bricks I noticed that they are also different molds. There exist a thicker and a thinner stud-top. In other words the area that carries the LEGO logo. The difference is HUUGE, anout twice (or half) the thickness between the variations. I thought maybe that causes the difference in the hue but to my surprise, while it is the case with the Trans Orange (i.e. the ticker one is also the darker one), it is just the opposite with the Trans-Dark Pink part. The thinner version is the darker one, and the thicker version is the lighter one. So unless these are in fact different colors, which is not the case according to BrickLink, I consider these color mixing inconsistencies during manufacturing. The change in the thickness of the stud-top is deliberate, I would think.

I too considered Maersk Blue. The set I suspect they were originally a part of (4679b-1 on BrickLink) was released in 2005, which is the same time the Maersk Container ships were released (2004&2005&2006). I actually have a copy of the 2004 edition, but "unfortunately" it is still MISB, so I can't compare the colors.

Thanks for your input! The two Light Purples are indeed quite apart in hue. I don't think either is Magenta, I have a Magenta part in this pic and it is a different from both these Light Purple variations. For the time being, I will consider these both Light Purple. I am considering picking the parts from my stock to "build" a 4679b-2 set. (t looks like I have parts for two copies, almost complete. The Bright Light Blue bricks are different not only in color, but some other small detail. The stud logos are quite different on the two bricks. Then again, this can be a manufacturing inconsistency. On the left brick, there is a "ring" around the logo, and the letters are not so "sharp" and they are less tall. On the right one, there is no ring, the letters have more definition and they are slightly taller. The color of each bick is perfectly even, too even to be yellowed. Same color on every surface, even on the insides. Again, I will consider these two to be the same color, for the time being. The difference is very subtle. If in fact I have two copies of the set these came with, this is the most likely explanation why I have these pieces in the first place.

Hello, I can't identify some LEGO colors. Please check this photo and let me know if my guesses are incorrect. I am pretty confident I got the colors right in the first row. Magenta, Dark Pink, Bright Pink, Pink. Although the last one might be Paradisa Pink, which I recall used to be a separate color on BrickLink, but now appears that BL considers Paradisa Pink and Pink the same color. I am not so sure about the ones in the second and the third rows. Second row third and fourth brick are clearly not the same color, and one must be Light Purple (not sure which) but then what would the other be? Same about the third row first and second bricks. They are very close, but not quite the same. I would say one of them is Bright Light Blue, but what is the other? There are other parts in my inventory that would indicate that some of these parts were originally part of this set: https://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemInv.asp?S=4679b-2 For example: 1x1 bricks is Aqua, the Blue-Violet slopes, the Earth-Orange plate etc. So it is quite possible that these are just color variations, due to manufacturing inconsistency.

The DDN model is now placed in the outdoors display case. It will get a glass cover to protect it from the elements. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nl4lg_0XamM

Town layout 2006-2012 More pictures here LEGO Factory This is a scale model of the LEGO Factory in Nyíregyháza, Hungary. I had about one month to work on the digital design. I could not participate in the actual building or the setup, as I was staying out of the country at the time. This was a surprise gift from the various companies that were involved with the construction of the factory. The finished model was set up at the LEGO Factory, in 2014.
