Hi everyone, I am Bricklinking the Taj Mahal and am wondering: Do any of you know where I can get 208 of the 368001 piece? The picture is attached. On Bricklink, the largest quantity I could find was 14 and that is by far not the amount I need. I am looking to find these at less than $0.05 per if possible. Thanks.

You get one of that piece in the 8083-1: Rebel Trooper Battle Pack. I tried searching for bulk of that piece, but I didn't find any place that had more than 10.

He is a list of all the sets that had that piece in it. Link: http://www.brickset.com/search/?part=368001

Yeah, I looked at that before, but none of them seemed to have more than 1 in them. :(

I have SOME but not as many as you need and they're all in terrible condition!! :_( sorry! I don't know of any other place besides Bricklink that would have as many as you need.

Isn't that just the base only of 2x2 turntable? Bricklink the complete turntable (368c01) and take out the top part. You won't do it for 5 cents a piece either unless you are willing to buy used pieces.

@gregpj - I knew that I could just get a bunch of the bases, but it seemed like alot of work to do this for 208 of them. If I have to, I will, but I don't really want to do it. LOL I am lazy! This is where I have been finding many of my pieces. Most of them you can get for less than $0.10 and there are A BUNCH of every piece. http://www.bricklink.com/store.asp?p=legostock

Without substituting - it won't be easy to do. This is why these expensive sets are so expensive. Lego tends to put in a few exclusive pieces and/or require a quantity of certain pieces that just makes it nearly impossible to justify trying to piece it together. You will need to be either very lucky or very patient.

I don't know what color you need but there are 338 black ones with the top included in this guy's store for .035 cents each coming to a total of 7.28 for 208 of them here's the link: http://www.bricklink.com/store.asp?p=leticha1964&itemID=23627857

What color do you need for the TM? 208 is a lot of work... Just put a bad movie on and you'll be happy to have something else to do while you watch. I just did this Friday night... I was trying to reassemble some sets my kids took (half) apart and I was happy to be doing it instead of exclusively watching the bad movie.

How close are you? Have you bought any parts from overseas? We bought from Germany, Portugal, Spain, Hungary and Austria when we were building our city... Parts were so much cheaper that it was about the same as buying in NA.

I need a white base for the turntable piece. Here is a seller that I found that has a bunch of them: http://www.bricklink.com/store.asp?p=tcoats&itemID=2361100 I was just hoping to preserve my fingernails, but I guess you have to lose some to gain some. :-)

Take a piece of smooth wood, drill a hole the same size as the top. Put the parts in upside down and pop the tops out from the backside using a technic axle! If you drill the hole deep, you can a bunch quickly!

Actually, looking at the price history for that piece - there are a number of recent 200+ sales at decent prices. So if you look constantly, they do show up. My guess is that when they do show up - they will go right away.

Yeah, there are plenty of ok priced for this piece, but the color is the problem. Apparently, there aren't a ton of sets that have that color, so they are a little rarer than one of the black or gray ones.

Does Lego.com not have them anymore? Even if they are a few cents more a piece, having a singular shipping charge would save a lot in the end.

I do not think they have it. And if they do, it isn't in the correct color which is white. I was trying to get most of them from PAB, but they don't have many oof the needed pieces. :(

Did you ask them for a quote?

I would try it just to be sure, maybe you get lucky.

So asking them for a quote would be what? Making sure they don't have that piece in particular? BTW I remember that yesterday I overheard (I wasn't stalking them) an employee talking to a customer and saying that you can buy a big box of random pieces for around $70. Not sure how many Legos, but I think its a great deal assuming that the pieces aren't all 2x2's or 2x4's.

They show the piece you want, I think. You can get up to 200 and they should send you a price quote in a couple days if they have it in stock.

Great Fcbarcelona! Thanks for the help!

Just so you know I saw this piece in my PAB wall last Christmas, the Chicago Downtown Lego store, it isn't there any more, but there is a good chance it is floating around.

No problem. I am very interested in how this project turns out so please keep us updated! I probably will be trying this myself with this same set.

Will do!

I was there (Chicago Watertower Lego Store)for 2 hours yesterday getting pieces for the Taj Mahal to fit in tiny cups. (It takes skill to fit 1000 pieces in a PAB cup!) None of the "rare" pieces that I needed were there I also looked in that little circle of computers with little bins of Legos in them, but couldn't find any in there. I will be checking pretty often now in that Pick a Brick Wall. Also, you can ask them for a couple copies of the Lego catalog and get a couple of those 10% off coupons, just an FYI.
