Wow Daveed, I didn't realize there are two "types" of dark red... All i know is that it's the dark red from Cafe Corner, Fire Brigade (the modular fire-hall), Robie House, etc.

Thanks Gumby. I'll head over during winter break and see if there is any stock left. That dark red makes a really good wall colour for houses. :)

The wall has red gem pieces, light grey click hinges, trans red round 1x1 bricks and thin tires.

Still had white flowers, stems and bamboo stems.

Does anyone know how the PaB wall online work and how to update it? If yes, please get in touch with me. Thanks.

Thanks. I thought it would be more complicated than that. But I guess you want to keep the barrier to entry low when you're crowd sourcing information.

I updated a few items, but I just chose empty slots as I can't remember the exact position. Although they change them so often anyways, that I think element and quantity are more important than location.

I've always wondered why the LEGO store employees don't go and update the BrickBuildr site. Do it as a fan, and not as an employee! :)

For most employees it's a job and it's not necessarily in their mindset to take time outside of work to do so. A store manager on the other hand may decide to set aside 15 minutes a week to update it and with good results for the store.

My intention is to mention the BrickBuildr site each month during the Monthly Community Showcase post so that people are aware and help to update.

Went into the LEGO Store today and took pictures of the PaB wall. Just finished updating the whole wall (part name, quantity, and location on the wall) on the Brick Buildr site. The only part I could not identify was on row 1, column 3. It is some sort of black modified plate. Please see the attached picture and see if you can figure it out (bottom left hand corner). Sorry the picture is not very clear. There were many people near the PaB wall, so I had to take the pictures really quickly. Thanks! :)

The link to the wall is: http://www.brickbuildr.com/view/pab/side/off/99/

I was at the store on the 4th to put in my Battle of Troy scene and filled a few cups. Got half a cup of 1x2 Purple tile and there was more. they still had a few red gems hiding behind the counter too. Somehow I forgot to get any of the 2x2 clear slopes (45 degree), which I was excited about when I saw they were still there. Oh well.

If anyone sees flat tiles in any neutral colours, (ie sand, light grey, grey, white.....etc) in any size, please post on the forum. Much appreciated!

Does anyone have a hand full of yellow 1x2 jumper plates that are on the wall right now? I don't need a whole cup full just maybe about 50 or so?

I've heard that some stores have the masonry bricks and 1x1 round tiles on the wall, any idea if they will be coming to Oakridge?

Thanks Diana for continuing to update the PAB wall website and our forum thread. Your contribution is really appreciated. I mean I live close by (as close as you), but I don't get to the store often. Hopefully, we'll see the 1x1 black brick with studs on 4 sides, soon.

Those 6x16 dark bluish grey plates are what we grabbed for the Vancouver Art Gallery, Family FUSE event.

If you were to offer the staff $ to buy a box of say the 6 x 16 baseplates, would you be instantly shot down? Is there a way they could get away with that. Not that I'd want to encourage activity that could put their job at risk, but i'd just love a box of those baseplates in particular.
