Hi, I am working on a MOC in which I am using Ice Picks (#30193). I noticed that there seems to be some slight differences between the light bluish gray and the dark bluish gray versions of these elements and I think they should be split into two separate entries in the BrickLink catalog. The differences I noticed are as follows: Years in production "Old" Dark Gray: 1998-2003* Dark Bluish Gray: 2004-2010 Light Bluish Gray: 2013-2019 *I don't have any "Old Bluish Gray" Ice Picks on hand, but I assume that they are the same mold as the Dark Bluish Gray. Handle Dark Bluish Gray: Six ridges, no pin hole on end. Light Bluish Gray: Three ridges, pin hole on end. Ferrule Dark Bluish Gray: Shorter, but slightly larger in diameter resulting in friction when placed in an open stud. Light Bluish Gray: Longer, but slightly smaller in diameter resulting in no friction when placed in an open stud. Thanks! Steven
