| Hello,
probably I'm not the first person to point this out but there are a lot of
2x2 printed tiles listed in the wrong way.
I suppose the part code is 3068b, so all the printed tiles should be 3068bp*,
but many are 3068pb*
|
3068b doesn't exist anymore, now it is just 3068 to conform with LEGO number.
We have now 3068 for the regular current tile with groove and 3068a for the old
tile without groove.
Thus printed tiles with groove are now 3068p*
Hope that helps?

Like : https://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemIn.asp?P=3068pb2361&in=S
I believe that this is an error.
Can you confirm me?
Because when searching 3068bp*, as it should, many do not appear.

| Hello, this has been bothering me for a while now, but several of the mask packs
listed either do not exist at all, or are listed with the wrong region.
For starters, the US/non-US distinction -- having spoken with several Canadian
BIONICLE fans about these, Canada had the boxed versions as well. Additionally,
LEGO's naming scheme uses the distinguishment of "IN" and "AM",
rather than "NA" or "US", which leads me to believe that they
were available in both South and North America.
Considering that Connecticut became HQ for LEGO's activities in all of America
around 1998, this also tracks: https://www.lego.com/en-gb/history/articles/g-production-in-brazil/
Further-more, I have found no evidence of 8530, 8559, 8597, or 8600 existing
in boxed form. Just Google them, there are no photos of them - because they do
not exist.
To go through each set one-by-one:

This one does not exist; the image used in a prototype moccup of the box art.

| Hello!
I noticed that some sets like the Daily Bugle (76178-1) list the Doc Ock figure
with the arms included, but the one from the Monster Truck set (76174-1) didn't.
Could it be at least included as an alternate to the minifigure alone? It makes
more sense to me for the figure to be offered both with and without the mechanical
arms, but the listings including these are inconsistent.
Thanks for the consideration and any feedback about the situation.
Nathan (Peteparker)
|
Our current catalog guidelines for minifigures make the condition of handheld
items being added to the minifigure in the instructions the finishing point of
the minifigure build. So, for Doc Ock from
the figure is considered complete on page 5 before the arms are built and added
on the subsequent pages.

I have discovered that the LEGO House Tile has 2 versions, see below.
Appeared in sets 40502, 40501, 4000010 and 21037, with PCC 6089148.
And it was updated to:
And this newer version appears in sets 40503, 40563, 40504 and 40505, with PCC
6320270.
Once the newer tile has been approved I will update the set inventories above
accordingly, and add a relationship between the 2 tiles.
I have put in a request for the version currently in the catalogue to change
it's name and remove it's second PCC.
Any questions just let me know!

You have to submit images before your parts can be approved.

The only problem is that the person who applied the stickers didn’t do a very
good job.
|
|
You can use some tweezers to re-align the sticker. If there is dirt / hair or
such on the part of the sticker that was hanging over the edge, you can use any
flat object to scrape off the debris. If done gently enough, the sticky glue
should still be viable and will re-stick very well.
I do this all the time and it works very well. I use my fingernail to scrape
the debris off as I have semi-long nails.

If you are looking to sell a misprinted item, you can list it under the normal
item category and add to your description that the part is a misprint. You can
also use your own photo for that item.
You could also list it under custom with the item number, but fewer custom items
get hits when someone searches.

We found out long time ago (based on original set contents) that 10040 had the

How much data space would it take to have two catalogs? One for detailed data

The problem isn’t space, it’s consistency and workload.
Basically, you’re doubling the workload.
If you make a change in one of the catalogues, should it be echoed on the other
one? To which extent? Can that be automatized?
In the software world, that’s called a fork (external / by another team) or a
branch (internal / by the same team).
We have tools and procedures to follow and “port” (transfer, apply) changes between
branches / versions / forks (‘diffs’ and ‘patches’ and ‘version control system’
(git, bitkeeper, mercurial…)).
And those tools are good and ‘smart.’ They can work around other changes and
differences that shouldn’t change (and (good) devs are lazy: everything that
can be automatized is automatized).
But we ALWAYS need to check the changes. The changes may apply without a hitch…
but they may break the program because they contradict an older change. That
can also be automatized, to some extent. But it’s work again and you can never
predict everything so you always need to check.
Duplicating a database and the changes on the database can be automitized in
the same way: changes are just instructions, like a program. So the same porting
solutions & problems apply: Should that change be applied? Can it be applied?
Should another change be applied instead? And you always need to check, check,
check.
Also, you first need to record these instructions. AFAIK, BrickLink’s changelogs
aren’t complete / sufficient.
TL;DR: It’s the same as the work done by Rebrickable: another catalogue, with
conversion tables, with changes to follow / apply or not, with errors or misses…,
and with a full team to manage it.
It could be a bit simpler and you could save a bit by keeping it inside BrickLink,
but that won’t remove most of the work needed.
Another possibility is to handle that in only one “catalogue,” with two (or more!)
different ways to present its info. The work would be done only once, in the
more detailed catalogue, and there would be mechanisms to hide the details to
the users. But that’s the same as the “umbrella part” solution: you need to
change the whole structure of the database and the way the site works. That
can’t be patched onto what exists now (which is already patched enough with spaghetti
and sauce as it is).

If that part ever appeared in a set, then it would need to be added to the set

However, I think it is just the print from

In that case, the part should probably not even be in the catalog.

I actually think this part should be deleted. It looks like I found it in error.
The part that I have on hand is actually 30119pb01 (up vs. down). It also appears
that the 30118pb03 pictured in the inventory is a printed on the wrong part.

We definitely could have talked about it on the catalog panel if the catalog
panel had EVER been consulted about this.
|
The catalog panel was informed of this merge project months before it was announced
publicly. But the purpose of the panel is to bring community voice to the development
team, not contribute to catalog policy.
|
Unless there was a meeting I missed somehow, I do not recollect that we were
informed of this project or asked to give any input or suggestions. There was
a brief mention that there was a variant project but no details or timetables
were ever given. Considering that many people on the Panel were among those who
expressed surprise and dismay when this was all introduced, I would think that
those meetings would indeed have been an ideal place to breach the subject with
the members at large.
|
The only thing I recollect is talking about the need to tackle the variants on
the catalog, but nothing specific, I must have missed it too.
|
| We do address catalog policy when it comes up, but it's definitely a sideline
issue, as are all issues that relate to other BrickLink teams, like Marketplace
and Studio. Panel meetings are not the place to debate proposed variant merges.
The Forum is, and there was plenty of debate and even opportunity for more debate.
|
Perhaps it was not the place to discuss the exact specifics of each part being
looked at. But it would have been good to know how the project would be introduced
and carried out. We are supposed to be looking out for the community and sharing
out expertise after all.

It isn't the only proof. There is only one set that occurred after the underside
torso design changed and that is 10040. The black buckle torso has the modern

“ For the first year after a set was originally released, inventories will only
be accepted from sealed set contents. Exceptions may be made for bundle packs,
certain accessory sets or service packs which only contain very few items, and
also for sets that were distributed in an open (non-sealed) packaging. If no
inventory was created during the first year, then any source may be used to create
an inventory.”

change or update / add to an inventory. Did this policy change?

I think that that only applies if the set is only 1 year old

This can only be fixed by replacing the minifigure in the set inventory. But
the correct minifigure (with 973pb0280c01) must first be added to the catalog.
You can submit it here:

The number would be pi198.

This is a serious understatement. From now until I don't know when, I'm
not investing in any of the variants.

We knew the hardest thing about this project was having to undo some work that
the community had done. The important thing moving forward, though, is that no
one is going to keep investing in that handful of variants that we removed. This
will also force us to consider more closely the addition of variants in the future,
to avoid this happening again.
And, like I said clearly before, we have a complete record of all modern inventory
change requests. They are all preserved in the Forum for those that want to see
what you discovered in your sealed sets. And the vast majority of your work is
still completely intact and helping other members, so let's not paint this
as a total loss.

The seller probably didn’t think too much about it. I wouldn’t have been able
to tell you that this set was rare if not for the fact that I know a little more
about these older DUPLO sets. The parts all seem to be there.

Older test bricks were made in molds that were previously used for regular production.
The test bricks with letters and other markings are more recent.
