This radically expands my popular LEGO Brick Labels collection by creating thousands of new labels automatically.
Creator 3-in-1 sets like #31120 Medieval Castle give you a wide range of parts and helpful constraints to start building your own custom LEGO models.
This is delightful and cozy — but why are there so many clocks?

More parts added to database, more custom images, and the ability to see retired parts in galleries!
In the past couple weeks, I’ve reviewed the top 1250 Most Common Current Parts, and the Top 1250 Most Common Parts of All Time, and added all of the missing parts to the database!
While parts need to be added to the database to appear in the main galleries sorted by part, placeholder pages are automatically created for parts which haven’t been added yet. That’s why I also added 232 additional part images since September 1 — this ensures even more parts appear nicely in the lists of most common parts even when I haven’t added them to the guide fully.
I’ve finally added enough retired parts that it seems appropriate to include an option to show them in the galleries sorted by category as well.
By default, you will contine to only see current parts. I added a new option to show ‘All Parts’ which displays both current and retired parts in the gallery.
