HA, my kids literally brought that SAME part in that SAME color to me today and asked how valuable it is. Sorry, I don't have your answer.....but I have two other curious humans that want to know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Huskers1236 Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 Is that old dark grey? I didn't find that part in that color on Bricklink. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's either light grey or light bluish grey. The color is right in between the two. Did you find the part in another color on Bricklink? I've searched Bricklink, Stud.io, brickowl, peeron and brickset with nothing turning up. It really looks and feels like Lego and it clips together to other pieces like Lego. And I have 2 of them.

Is there a Lego imprint anywhere on the piece? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 FM Posted March 5, 2018 Author Share Posted March 5, 2018 10179 and 01-01 are marked on it. 10179 makes it harder to research since thats the old MF UCS set number And I'm leaning toward calling it old light grey in color. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 MarleyMoose Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 LEGO stamped on top it? If not I'd say it's not Lego. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"LEGO" is not in the mold but there's no flat area to put it. The numbers are on the only flat surfaces available. The font looks like Lego. And the surface feel of the part feels like Lego. And from the base to the tip its exactly 3L. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Huskers1236 Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 I don't think that's the right font for part number stamps on a piece. They have a bit of italicization(is that a word?) to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"The font is in italics." I was curious and did some searching, I'm not sure it's LEGO either. I thought maybe it was a pin like the train track pins for the RC tracks (something you'd normally gasp'throw away) but I see nothing even close to it. I've never seen it before.

I know Mega Bloks has a grey color that falls in between old and new light grey as I've thrown many of them away. I'm very much in the camp right now that it's not Lego.
