1×2 w/ 3L Space Wing (Part 4596)
"Commonly known as the 'space wing,' it is actually used in all manner of ways—as a nose tip, as a stanchion, and for satellites. The tip has a tube rather than a stud, meaning that the undersides of elements inserted into it are visible. It can also attach with bar handles."¹

LEGO parts are described differently on other websites and may use different part numbers.
Ranking based on buying one copy of every LEGO set, counting the number of sets containing each part, then sorting by part and color.
Overall Rank is a weighted score combining the number of parts, sets, and colors produced.
Current ranking based on sets released between 2019-2023. (2024 not included because too few sets have been released and inventoried at this time.)
