Please move this thread if this isn't the right place for it. What Treasures, Gems, or Garbage did your Lego Bulk Lot Hold? I wanted to start this thread for awhile, what I would like to see is the hidden gems you found in the box wether it be lego (cool or rare pieces) or something else neat other then lego ( toys, coins, etc) or something crazy like (glass, metal garbage, etc). Photos would always be good so the forum could help you identify an item. I have a few things to post like a small c3po made of metal I think and some small plastic camels and elephants.

Is that small C3PO a Lego minifig?

not lego at all its a very skinny and probably half the size of a minifig but very detailed, like a moveable tin c3po I'll post pics

Here is just a small sample of things from the last 10lb lot I received. A small piece of glass A bunch of easter grass A rubbery slimy plastic thing Some popsicle sticks Some paper clips A button A penny Lots of broken tiny wood parts Candy wrappers A fuzzy thing And he was even nice enough to include some carpet pieces, lots of dirt, half stickers from non Lego sets and a crapload of mega blocks.

I might be wrong, but that orange plastic piece was apart of a set of 10 you could buy in orange or blue. They could be loaded into and launched by some bionicle figures. The reason I recognized it was because I have blue ones that look exactly like that one.

That could be. There was a lot of bionicle stuff in there.

what?! no broken crayons? lol...not to make light of your experience, but easter grass and pennies always seem to find their way into those bulk lots. better luck to you in the future, friend.

I always get stickers, hair (EWWW!!), LOTS of dust, and at least a few Lego compatibles like Mega Blocks. Sometimes I also get tissues, green plastic army men, and farm animals from other toys in them. Hardly ever get 100% Lego in the lots that I buy. :(

Surprisingly there were no crayons. Maybe next time. There was plenty of hair though. These are all things to be expected in a bulk lot with the exception of the piece of glass. I'm sure there are more treasures to be found if I keep looking through it.

Bulk lots are usually a lot of fun. My wife and I can't wait to dump them out and look at all the pieces and find those hidden gems. I will probably continue to buy them even with the recent bad batch.

LOL, "treasures".

Dirt and dust is all that is ever in my LEGO box... besides LEGOS of course.

Technically dog, can't he claim that he refunded you $0.01 now? :p

hehe, going through large lots can be great or really frustrating or brilliant. Brilliant. Lot of 1980s space Lego. The seller did not mention they had multiple copies of large sets, like 6980, 6951, 6930, 6971. I also found a rare 928 & 6970. There was an extra
