Apollo 92176 vs 21309

Graham

92176 doesn't appear to be in the data base.

Is the re-issue identical to the original? (other than set #)

Are you planning on adding it?

Amazon "suddenly" had 21309 on sale last week, I purchased and parted out before realizing they actually sent 92176 before the official release!

My understanding is that both sets are absolutely identical and share the same Ideas number (#17). The previous one still comes at almost twice the price, but I think it will drop soon. Should have sold mine when I first heard the rumors a few months ago

Graham

LEGO have 92176 showing 221 available bricks, but 220 for 21309?

Graham

@Lawrence are you not adding set 92176?

^^ It is a dark bluish grey technic 2x4 plate with 3 holes.

@CastleBricks 👍 the part count is still 1969 so wonder what changed?

I think sets are auto-created here in BO when LEGO adds the data to their API feed to here, Brickset, etc. Again, I *think*. Dunno for sure!

Brickstar uploaded a comparison video of these sets on his youtube channel last week.

@Graham as mentioned above, a 2x4 plate replaced by a 2x4 technic plate. It is in the lander module.

@CastleBricks
Thanks! That'll be an easy fix

21309 was/is one of very few sets I actually bought to build. Pretty impressed other than all the unnecessary colored parts. I guess they do that to make it easy to build.
