  Hello,

Can you please approve The Lego Movie 2: 30620 Star-Stuck Emmet Polybag? I have
some in my hands. This polybag can already be purchased in Poland.

If you need more information please let me know.

Thank you!

Nice polybag! It depicts a great little scene from the movie, and I love the
sand green tiles! I have a feeling this polybag will not get released over here
in the States.

Cheers,
Randy

  Please make changes to the following inventory:
 
Set No: 8714  Name: The LEGO TECHNIC Team
* 
8714-1 (Inv) The LEGO TECHNIC Team
3 Minifigures, 1993
Sets: Technic: Supplemental

* Delete 1 Part 2715 Black Technic, Figure Accessory Helmet
* Delete 1 Part 2716 Trans-Clear Technic, Figure Accessory Helmet Visor
* Change 1 Minifig {tech012 Technic Figure Black Legs, Light Gray Top with 2 Brown Belts, Black Arms to tech030 Technic Figure Black Legs, Light Gray Top with 2 Brown Belts, Black Arms, Black Helmet}

Since this set does not have instructions, we must look to the box to show us
what the figure should be inventoried as. Unfortunately, the box is also inconclusive
in this case as it shows the figure without the helmet on the front of the box
and with the helmet on the back of the box.

This is a tough call. I would like them to all be consistent in this set, so
let's look a little further.

There are nine complete figures in total shown on the box (three with the black
arms, three with the blue arms, and three with the red arms). Of those nine,
only three of them are shown with the helmets (one with the black arms and two
with the red arms). Therefore, the blue-armed figure should definitely not have
a helmet. (Helmets: 0; No Helmets: 1)

That leaves the black-armed figure and the red-armed figure. The black-armed
figure has two images without helmet and one with helmet. Looking at the score
shows that the black-armed figure should also not have a helmet. (Helmets: 0;
No Helmets: 2)

Finally, the red-armed figure has two images with helmet and one without helmet.
Looking at the score for this one shows that the red-armed figure should have
a helmet. (Helmets: 1, No Helmets: 2)

Since the "No Helmets" win by one point, my decision is to go with all figures
in the set with no helmets for consistency.

What do you think, Marek?

Cheers,
Randy

Agree to this

It will be difficult to implement.

No, not difficult to implement; just slightly difficult to get the right minifigs
into the catalog quickly. For now, I will add an inventory note to the set stating
that the other two figures should be without helmets, and I will see if I can
get some cheap figures for the fixes.

Cheers,
Randy

  Please make changes to the following inventory: [M=sw534]

* Change 1 Part Red {553pb016 Brick, Round 2 x 2 Dome Top with Silver Pattern (R4-P17 / Astromech Droid)) to 553pb023 Brick, Round 2 x 2 Dome Top with Silver Band around Dome Pattern (R4-P17)}

Comments from Submitter:
dome top is with silver band version. Existing image of 553pb016 (should not have silver band) in red shows the silver band. Silver band version is part 553pb023

Sorry for long waiting, but I wanted to study this problem, which looked like
easy one on the first sight.
Good catch, I didn't notice it when I was submiting new replacment image
for red
 
Part No: 553pb016  Name: Brick, Round 2 x 2 Dome Top with Silver Pattern (R4-P17)
* 
553pb016 Brick, Round 2 x 2 Dome Top with Silver Pattern (R4-P17)
Parts: Brick, Round, Decorated

I didn't do inventory for [m=sw534], so somebody else used part 553pb016
in its inventory submission and then I submited only new image to replace one
being for this part in red color submited before by inventory submitter of this
minifg and didn't compare them in that time (as I remember it was 2014
).

I created 553pb016 and 553pb023 for different astomechs which I inventoried:
[m=sw456] and [m=sw706]

So you excellently noticed that dome for sw534 has silver stripe, I appreciate
this.
I this post I attached comparison images of all three astromech.

But I think we should create completely new unique dome for this particualr droid.
Why? Look at the droid indicator on dome in sw534 is lime but in sw706 having
part 553pb023 is blue
This is difference in pattern printing recognized in similar parts in catalog:
 
Part No: 553pb017a  Name: Brick, Round 2 x 2 Dome Top with Red Dots, Small Receptor and Dark Blue Pattern (R2-D2)
* 
553pb017a Brick, Round 2 x 2 Dome Top with Red Dots, Small Receptor and Dark Blue Pattern (R2-D2)
Parts: Brick, Round, Decorated
 
Part No: 553pb017b  Name: Brick, Round 2 x 2 Dome Top with Lavender Dots, Small Receptor and Dark Blue Pattern (R2-D2)
* 
553pb017b Brick, Round 2 x 2 Dome Top with Lavender Dots, Small Receptor and Dark Blue Pattern (R2-D2)
Parts: Brick, Round, Decorated

So summarizing
- photo of dome for sw534 is correct
- dome for sw534 is classified under wrong entry
- sw534 has unique pattern printing which should have own catalog entry.

Here it is:
 
Part No: 553pb034  Name: Brick, Round 2 x 2 Dome Top with Silver Band Around Dome, Lime Dot Pattern (Astromech Droid)
* 
553pb034 Brick, Round 2 x 2 Dome Top with Silver Band Around Dome, Lime Dot Pattern (Astromech Droid)
Parts: Brick, Round, Decorated

I changed now inventory sw534 no longer has 553pb016, can be Xref moved from
red 553pb016 to this new one?

Everything now was sorted and corrected

as this droid can't have 553pb023 in the inventory but completly new dome
was created 553pb034 for it I have to reject your request. But thank you for
finding this mistake and notifying us.
