0 seapotato Posted December 18, 2017 Author Share Posted December 18, 2017 Awesome, thank you! That would have been great set to have but it's definitely incomplete in my lot haha.

0 seapotato Posted January 23, 2018 Author Share Posted January 23, 2018 Bought a new bulk lot today with no minifigures. There were a lot of prebuilt chunks in it and need some help. I recognized bits of geonosian cannon and duel on geonosis so there was some star wars in there. I need some help identifying these builds, if they actually belong to any set. Thanks!Sent from my SM-G930W8 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 SpaceFan9 Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 The funny little yellow box is a "net shooter". It and the platform at the back left come from the older dino theme: https://brickset.com/sets/5883-1/Tower-Takedown 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 SpaceFan9 Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 A correction on the bottom right (I'm sure it was just a typo), but it should be https://brickset.com/sets/9442-1 Jay's Storm Fighter Jet A quick primer on how I I use brickstock to i.d. stuff like this: load in a few of the unique pieces into an inventory list, and then highlight groups that I think belong together. The software then shows which sets have all of the pieces highlighted. It makes it much easier to ID the sets, although it helps to know the bricklink colors and names of the parts. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 seapotato Posted January 23, 2018 Author Share Posted January 23, 2018 Thank you both! I've never tried using brickstock, though I did try bricklink. I ran into trouble when I didn't know the name of the large brick piece lol. I'll have to try out brickstock next time!

0 SpaceFan9 Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 brickstock uses the bricklink inventory database. If your eyes are strong (errr, young?) enough, you may be able to make out the small numbers molded into the bottom of each piece. One of the numbers there is the part number, the others refer to color/lot during production and storage. Bricklink usually uses the part number printed on the piece. brickstock has a nice filter function where one can enter the part number and/or brick size to limit the choices presented. If I cant recall the exact name of a piece, I'll call up a set that I know has it (at least shape, if not color) and get the part number that way. I also use brickstock to track set reconstitution: load up the set inventory, and then remove parts from it as I find them in the bulk lot. At the end, I'll have a list of missing parts which I can upload to bricklink as a wish list. ? Parsing bulk lots can be a lot of fun. Enjoy! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 seapotato Posted January 24, 2018 Author Share Posted January 24, 2018 Thanks for the info! I've never even thought of reverse engineering it, usually because I don't normally get built sets. I'm going to try this time since the bricks definitely need a bath (soooo much dust) and there were quite a few built chunks and I can wash by set. Darn, I was hoping brickstock was an app I could download onto my phone or tablet. My laptop isn't functioning right now brickstock uses the bricklink inventory database.
