  1. Already looking forward to a series 2 of these.
  2. Here you go. A little hard to see as the plastic is a little splotchy, like it got messed up during the injection. Stamps and text match PC scale and placement, but the neck stamp is rotated like the ABS torsos:
  3. For those not in the monochrome FB group, here is my post: Let's start with the ABS origins, as best as I have tracked it. The first pair released were trans clear and light blue, available from seller xdelacru on eBay (also sells on Bricklink as Big D's Toys), whom is located in Texas. The next release was bright green and orange, also from xdelacru. Next was black and purple, I believe from Moderno (Moderno Bricks on Bricklink), whom is located in New Jersey, and possibly danslego (located in Florida) on eBay. Next was yellow and dark pink, C3POs available from danslego on eBay and Minifigure Dreams (currently in Idaho) as normal minifigs shortly after. Last was red, available from MFD. Note that these sellers have also had the Vader helmets, etc, for sale as well. For the photo purposes, I have selected one color from each ABS pairing (and red as it was solo), along with green and neon green from PC figs. Notes are on the photos. While there are differences between the two materials in terms of logo stamps and placement, the ABS markings are, for the most part, consistent with newer produced non trans parts. The biggest discrepancies occur on the orange and bright green hips, the inner markings of the torsos, and the "L" mark on the legs of all the ABS figures. Please feel free to comment and add any additional info or observations, or even more photos. One thing to note is that the head of my yellow figure was swapped for a 3626c head as I bought the C3PO version, not the normal figure. My final verdict is inconclusive on the legitimacy of these ABS versions, but there are more signs to point to them being "legit nightshift from a factory" than 100% bootleg/knock-off I feel. For below, the upper 2 rows are ABS (unless the new mystery color is actually PC), while the bottom row is PC. Will update this post if necessary.
  4. I'll be posting a PC vs ABS comparison later today on the trans figures. A bunch of variations/inconsistencies on the legs/hips and some on the torsos between them...
  5. Yes, video and better images indicate they are indeed BLY hands. Also finally got my hands on this, still not sure if it is light purple (like the 4L bar, and excuse my poor fingernails):
  6. Exciting times heh.
  7. It looks like it might be tan.
  8. The Iron fig Parry posted on FB (not the helmet, just the fig) seems like a PC neon orange to me, pretty much matches mine. The fig for the yellow helmet is also neon green. I'd say all the helmets are ABS. I also wondered if perhaps the other is a light pink, but it seems closer to the light purple.
  9. It's possible it is trans lavender, but to me it looks like the light purple 4l bar. Waiting confirmation once I have one. Definitely seems like an ABS figure.
  10. 2 new colors or you have 2 light purple for sale?
  11. Now that another person (AN Parry) has it, it seems you can add trans light purple to the list.
  12. What's wrong with them? I know they are from China, supposedly.
  13. I messaged Mysterio after I saw his post, waiting to hear back for a final answer but if no one else claimed anything I'm going for the dark blue and light pink/lavender? Haven't seen that one before. Also based on history of PC figs I've bought and have seen sold, that is a fair price for the harder to obtain colors IMO. Where? I only know Mysterio selling these, one other collector selling the neon green (which has been super rare), and only know Ting with his ridiculous price tag on the dark blue (in the group image earlier on the page).
  14. I have yet to see a dark blue PC monofig for sale anywhere. As for night shift, I'd say that they come out of the Mexico factory given the proximity of sellers who first had the ABS trans figs.
  15. The images I posted are of the milky white, not GID.
  16. Unfortunately I don't, never saved them from the auction (wish I did). If I come across them or can manage to find them somehow I'll report back. **Update** Was able to find these with Google, the first being an image from the listing, the 2nd from some other website. Can't locate the images that showed the stamp on each part though. Also just managed to secure a trans green and neon green in the coming weeks.
  17. Does anyone know if part 29633 comes in black for any BAM location? Or is that exclusive to the Wangfujing Grand Opening Female?
  18. Myself, my mother and my girlfriend entered the contest in hopes of winning one, but we all ended up winning For now my girlfriend is holding onto hers, and I have the other 2. So one I keep, the other I'm trying to trade for Miles.
  19. PS4 Miles Morales minifig started showing up on eBay Friday. Hoping that the price settles a bit like Supergirl, or that I can trade one of my spare Supergirls for it.
  20. I was speaking with Lego customer service earlier today about an issue and decided to ask about this out of curiosity. The minifigures were produced and delivered to Sony (confirmed by the operators friend who works for Sony in a distribution warehouse). Seems they just got bogged down with COVID and the holidays/USPS so they were delayed. He expects them to be delivered by the end of January to mid February the latest. Guess we will see.
  21. Only asking cause they haven't shown up on eBay, so I assume no one got them yet.
  22. Does anyone have an update on the Sony PS4 contest for Miles Morales? Were those actually ever sent out to the winners?
  23. I use them to keep track of the minifigures/keychains/sets I have purchased/already have.
  24. Hey all! I've had this account since 2012, but due to a busy life schedule I never really posted, but more so lurked. Now that I have started up collecting and building again in the last few years I figured I'd stop in a little more frequently now. Great community here and I look forward to taking part more. In the meantime, you can check out my collection and such on Instagram: Instagram! Thanks!
  25. I have seen Milky White as well. Not sure if you want to count the Chrome Red as one too.
