55555 Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 Snagged this off a site that sells Lego stuff. The guy didn't seem to know that it was special.

Meiko Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 (edited) That's pretty awesome! I can honestly say that I have never seen that before. I used to pretend I had zamor spheres in awesome colors when I had this marble racing kit that used colorful plastic spheres. They were the same size exactly, it's just that they were in different colors (some of which aren't even in LEGO's color palette) and were lighter in weight (which made them great to fire!). I think that I even had one in chrome!

Icicle Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 I kinda think that could be one of those discolored green spheres. I got a very unsaturated blue-green with Hahli back in 06. I don't think I'm right about that so I want to call it a misprint. Awesome find, man! Quote Hey look I almost have 1000 posts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aedai Rivin Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 Wish I had Zamors like that. All I have are some Reds, Oranges, Yellows, Limes, Greens, and Blues, as well as two? marbled ones from HF.

RivinI've got a box full of zamor spheres. Most of mine are the translucent and marbled ones though. I wish I had the NXT so I could have all of those cool colors. I only have some of the solid colored ones that I got in Hero Factory.

Michael J. Caboose Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 Thats really cool! I have no cool zamors... I like the gold silver and gunmetal ones better than the translucent ones though.

PurpleCabbage Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 Do you know what set it came from? If not, do you know what year it might be from?It came from the (Ninjago) Lightning Dragon, so 2011. As usual, two were included, but only one was solid-colored. It looks like the Zamors from the Zamor Pack or from the Fire Villains, but blue. The swirls are fainter, but visible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overlord Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 Neat catch. I like it a lot.I would guess it's one of those that's supposed to be green, but a little too much clear got into the mold. That is essentially how they made the "transparent-sand-green" Zamor spheres, with clear and trans-neon-green.I've never seen one before, but if the person you got it from didn't even know it was special, I'd guess there's just one or two more floating around out there in the hands of people who don't really realize it's special. It was probably originally obtained from a set, if it is just an inordinately pale "green" one.~~ Quote "YOU'D THINK, FOR BEING A DEAD MAN, I'D BE MORE TRIUMPHANT THAN I AM."

Neelh Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 I admit it. I clicked on this seeing the word 'albino'. It doesn't have red/pink eyes, though. :| Go figure.

Ehlekdude Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 This is probably just an incredibly pale green Zamor. My Rotor has a very pale one too, so I guess some Zamor's just come like that.

GeluNumber1 Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 (edited) Man. And the most I have is a gunmetal zamor. totes newbie Edited October 16, 2011 by GeluNumber1 Quote Why are orange and black such a good color Combination ? Purple is pretty, and so is blue. Pink hurts your eyes, green is quite mellowing, black is very threatning, red is cool, orange is SO awesome, yellow's hard to read... But you can't see white at all! Oh, wait. I forgot brown. Here's my thoughts: If a person tells the truth and says, " I always lie," Is he lying? Or is he telling the truth? And what has a mouth, but no head, and a body, but no torso? Do caterpillars like to tend to supporting colum of stone's every need? Or is that name misleading by nature? Speaking of nature, why are the children of animals called offspring? don't many young beasts come alive in spring, and thus, should be called onspring? Heeeeeeyy.....

Meiko Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 It would work great as a crystal ball. It could also be great if you made some huge clam MOC, and this could be a pearl.

I'm a collectibles geek and I've never seen a Zamor like that one before... - Do you know what set it came from? If not, do you know what year it might be from?I haven't asked him what set he got it in, I should probably do that. I would guess 2006, but that's just a guess. It would work great as a crystal ball. It could also be great if you made some huge clam MOC, and this could be a pearl. Did you buy it from the site?Yeah, I thought of it being a pearl, crystal ball could be good, there are quite a few possible uses for this in MOCs. I did buy it from the site. Please tell me a white/trans-white Moc is in the mix?I do really have to make an MOC with this. but not necessarily white/trans. My bro gave me the idea of using it as a dead/blind eye, which could be great. Nice! How much did you get it for?76 cents. Wow, looks very rare. When did LEGO create these? For a contest?They seem to have made it by accident, they forgot to put color in the mold.Nice find! Have you found a set or MOC to use it? I have a super-light green sphere, but I don't know if it's rare.Not yet, but I'll most likely use it n an MOC at some point. I think that would be slightly rare.

Sumiki Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 (edited) Awesome part, fi-fi-fi-fi-five. I echo the above sentiment on how it would be great as an eye. I have to wonder if it's actually a prototype that somehow got ... leaked out or something, since the Flickr page said it's in a color that was not intended to be produced. (Even if it's a misprint, it's an awesome one!) Looking forward to seeing exactly how you use it.
