What is the rarest piece..... wow, what a loaded question......
Here is what I would consider a random list of "regular" (not specialty unique
pieces) LEGO that is rare, and the colors that are considered rare (in
parenthesis):
RARE WINDOWS -- (Note: many of these came in train sets (some European only) from
the 1970's & 1980's):
1x1x1 (yellow, black), 1x1x2 (yellow, black), 1x2x1 (yellow, black), 1x2x2
(black, grey), 1x3x2 (blue), 1x6x3 (yellow), 1x4x5 (yellow), 1x6x5 (yellow,
brown, black, blue).
RARE SLOPES:
1x2x2 regular slope "1960's" "L" apex brick (red, blue), 1x2x2 regular slope
inside corner (white), 2x2x3 steep slope (yellow), 2x2x3 steep slope convex
corner (yellow).
RARE ARCHES:
1x5x4 half arch (red, yellow).
RARE ROUND BRICKS:
1x1 (clear).
1x1 minifig head size- old style... with "LEGO" on stud (red, black, clear,
yellow clear).
2x2 macaroni (clear)
RARE PLATES:
2x2 (clear)
2x3 (clear)
2x4 (clear)
RARE BRICKS:
1x6 (clear)
1x8 (clear)
-----------------------
And then there are the 1,000 specialty pieces that are rare....
