What web sites, resources, and tools do enthusiasts use? It would be helpful to have a list of these available to reference in the future.

  • I'm curious, why is this on meta? It's not about our site, is it?

    @BoltClock: It's quite literally a meta-question - "Where do we find answers to questions?" It's not a question about Lego, but a question to help people better answer questions about Lego.

Peeron/PICSL is one of the oldest and most comprehensive databases of parts and sets.

Bricklink is an online marketplace that also maintains a massive parts database.

Brickipedia is less comprehensive than Peeron but has details on more non-toy aspects of Lego, and after years of dealing with MediaWiki and knockoffs, I find it easier to use than Peeron.
