    Need Help with Set Source Identification for Particular Piece —Greg Perry
   Recently I saw some 2x2 LEGO barrels show up on BrickLink in the color of Medium Blue. Unfortunately, I procrastinated in favor of other purchases and the large lot that was previously available is now not. Can someone identify what set(s) these (...)

   (...) There are a pair of barrels in the new light blue color (not Maersk blue) in the Racers set 4579 Ice Ramp Racers. -- Tim Buchheim (22 years ago, 1-Feb-02, to lugnet.general)
   
        Re: Need Help with Set Source Identification for Particular Piece —Greg Perry
   (...) Thanks Tim! That's one of those sets that I've seen on the shelf, and even picked up to glance at, but I never noticed the barrels. I even think this one might have been in the Wal-Mart clearance aisle the last time I was there. Guess it's (...) (22 years ago, 1-Feb-02, to lugnet.general)

   (...) They are a lighter blue than the Scala accessories. Scala colors are all off, and almost never seen in system sets (I haven't looked at colors in 4721, 4722, and 4723 to see if any of the oranges match Scala colors). They are the same light (...)

        Shades of Blue & Orange (was Re: Need Help with Set Source Identification for Particular Piece) —Greg Perry
     (...) For once, my memory didn't fail me and when I returned to my favorite Wal-Mart haunt last night I did find a couple of copies of 4579 in the clearance aisle for half-price (it took a lot of shifting and digging but I finally found them!). So (...) (22 years ago, 2-Feb-02, to lugnet.general)

     (...) Ooh, lucky. I've been waiting to get a couple more of these on sale. (...) Must be the same then. Two of those chair pieces from 3110 make a nice little gondola body for a short train car. I've also got a blue one. Frank (22 years ago, 3-Feb-02, to lugnet.general)
    
         Re: Shades of Blue & Orange —Greg Perry
     (...) I had been eyeing those chair pieces recently as a possibility for a train car (couldn't think of much else to do with them). Now that I picked them up and actually started to think of something to do with them, I noticed that they're 7 studs (...) (22 years ago, 3-Feb-02, to lugnet.general)
    
         Re: Shades of Blue & Orange —Frank Filz
     (...) To make a gondola from the chair pieces, I just "bolted" them onto a frame built between two wheel sets. I didn't put any cross members, though I probably should have, and those could easily be 6 wide. (...) would be what to do for an end (...) (22 years ago, 3-Feb-02, to lugnet.general)
   
        Re: Need Help with Set Source Identification for Particular Piece —Ray Sanders
     (...) I happened to have a 4721 and a 3115 both sitting here, so I did some comparisons. The scala 3115 has two oranges: a lighter orange (used on the round table top halves p/n 33088) and a medium orange (used in the big cabinet pieces p/n 6874). (...)

   (...) Other sets in which this color shows up: Bionicle Gali Bionicle Nui Jaga Throwbot Ski Throwbot Scuba LOM sets that feature the astronauts-not the Martian sets, as that is the color called Sand Blue. -Dave (22 years ago, 4-Feb-02, to lugnet.general)
