  Hello all,

I'm sure the answer is "just be patient", which is fine, but I wanted
to make sure I didn't do anything wrong with my submission of 5 new stickered
parts that were not previously in the catalog.

https://www.bricklink.com/catalogList.asp?itemPend=Y&uID=1913652

My pending submissions are here. There are also photos submitted separately to
go along with those items. Again, just making sure there's no glaring error
I committed and somehow these requests would go unnoticed forever. If there's
any way to tell just based on the pending entires.

Thank you for your replies and hopefully this will be the first round of many
future submissions!

-Steve

Looks good! Stickered parts fall to the end of the line as they provide the least
commercial value to bricklink and the admins are always swamped with new work.
From past experience stickered parts can take anywhere from less then a day to
almost a year to be approved so patience is key and the admins will get to it
as soon as they have time

  I'm working on the inventory for set
 
Set No: 75378  Name: BARC Speeder Escape
* 
75378-1 (Inv) BARC Speeder Escape
207 Parts, 4 Minifigures, 2024
Sets: Star Wars: Star Wars The Mandalorian
and the body for Din Grogu
has a new PCC. comparing the 2 images I can't tell if its a new pattern or
just printing variation. should I add a new entry or just add the new PCC? In
image 2 I drew arrows pointing to some different areas along with some lines
to show the height difference of the one line

These images, which were taken from BrickSet set reviews, show the eight Grogu
figures from the past sets on the left and the "new" Grogu on the right.
Apart from normal small print differences like thickness or position I cannot
see any relevant difference between the old figures and the new one.
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/scl/fi/9saog2sjhrjfds6tcixlc/Grogus.jpg?rlkey=czzl7du4bo50qurf68w4gamhp

So it might be that...

- The new PCC is for a new mold number (what number is molded into your part?).

25128

  - The new PCC is for a material change or any other change that we cannot know
or that is too subtle to notice.

- The new PCC is for a part with a visible difference or new mold but your set
still came with the old part.

If your part is numbered 25128 then I would say you can use the existing entry
sw1113 to finish the set inventory. However, to be on the safe side, let's
wait some time until we add the new PCC just in case it stands for a new part
that was not yet included in the early production runs of the set.

Sounds good! Ill leave the pcc, Ill be honest odds are I'm not going to remember
to add it at some distant time in the future so if possible feel free to add
it whenever your ready.

  Btw. according to the official render images, the new part doesn't have the
LEGO logo anymore.

I can confirm it has the logo

Is the listing wrong? or did Lego issue this minifigure with both head types,
as often seen with minifigures in regular sets?


This set came out right during the time of the transition from blocked open stud
to hollow stud, so it is very likely that the set came with both at one point.

However, this information will all be moot when the catalog entries for the heads
get merged soon.

Cheers,
Randy

It would be for the heaviest version found.

What about the lighter ones? Then the weight would be incorrect.

You could then use that logic for pretty much everything in the catalogue… it’s
best to over estimate the weight for shipping rather then underestimate. But
even so it isn’t going to be anything crazy

Ok, just found it strange that a item with weight varying from box to box could
have a weight attached to it.

It's not strange at all. It's very, very normal.

For example, most every set for North America is heavier than the sets distributed
elsewhere. The boxes and instructions use different paper. Depending on the size
of the set, it can easily be a difference of 10-20%.

Hmm, I did not know that.

It has to be somewhere in between the weight of the box plus the six times the
weight of the lightest minifigure polybag and the weight of the box plus six
times the weight of the heaviest minifigure polybag ... in no case would it be
zero.

Only ever seen examples of hollow-stud head with these polybag sets, had quite
a few too. But it's production year/s did fall firmly within the transition
period between mold types, and depending upon the number of global locations
and length of the overall production period, the global supply could credibly
contain both.

Having said that, and as to the listing being wrong: with the site's recent
'shift in listing' minifig head mold-types, it has become more of a moot
point today, at least in part.
