Hey all,
Just got one of the new X-pods recently (the one that’s purple and lime
green), and several of the purple pieces bear the same discrepancy that was
discussed to death when the Knight Bus first arrived. However, after first
glance I noticed that the pieces that are a little “off” are click-hinge
bits. I’ve noticed that these and any other pieces that move or are
otherwise subjected to extra stress are often a slightly different hue
because these pieces have a different formulation in order to make them more
flexible.
Just FYI.

I noticed the same variance in the X-Pod click hinges.
And what’s the deal with the 1x1 clips in 4337? At first, I thought it was another mistake, but it’s a real LEGO color (I
have some DUPLO parts in that shade).
Bricklink lists them as
“medium lime”, while Peeron just says
“new Limish color”.
What was the point of including 2 pieces in an odd,
ultra-rare
shade that doesn’t match the rest of the lime green (itself a rare color) in the
set?
But on the plus side, there’s only one new gray piece in it!
