I know.. It's difficult to prove the complete wheel
Please to not decline, I will cancel my request if you not approve.

-Fred

Is that the largest the image can get? Do you have a link to a better one?

- Randy


Randy,

The image come from Ebay:
-Fred

Your message is going to get cancelled because you can't post links to ebay.
However, I looked at the much larger image, and it does look like the wheels/tires
are together. In any case, I just bought the polybag, so we will know for sure
very soon!

- Randy


I also buy this set as new

I didn't have this one yet, so I figured "what the hell."

lol, that line of thinking has gotten me into soooooo much trouble...

In Catalog, StormChaser writes:
  We have long needed a relationship match that shows items which fit together
and which are frequently used together. I have asked for this type of match
in the past and have gotten nowhere.

Instead, these kinds of matches were added as paired parts even though they did
not fit the spirit or definition of that match (and the sentence "Exceptions
to these definitions are determined at administrative discretion." was added
to the Item Relationships definitions page). Some examples of items currently
matched as paired parts:

 
Part No: 44225  Name: Technic Rotation Joint Disk with Large Pin and 3L Liftarm Thick
* 
44225 Technic Rotation Joint Disk with Large Pin and 3L Liftarm Thick
Parts: Technic
 
Part No: 44224  Name: Technic Rotation Joint Disk with Large Pin Hole and 3L Liftarm Thick
* 
44224 Technic Rotation Joint Disk with Large Pin Hole and 3L Liftarm Thick
Parts: Technic

 
Part No: 92910  Name: Technic, Steering Ball Joint Large Open with C-Shape Pivot Frame
* 
92910 Technic, Steering Ball Joint Large Open with C-Shape Pivot Frame
Parts: Technic, Steering
 
Part No: 92911  Name: Technic, Steering Ball Joint Large Receptacle
* 
92911 Technic, Steering Ball Joint Large Receptacle
Parts: Technic, Steering

 
Part No: 87617  Name: Cylinder 1 x 5 1/2 with Bar Handle (Friction Cylinder)
* 
87617 Cylinder 1 x 5 1/2 with Bar Handle (Friction Cylinder)
Parts: Cylinder
 
Part No: 87618  Name: Bar   5L with Handle (Friction Ram)
* 
87618 Bar 5L with Handle (Friction Ram)
Parts: Bar

In my ongoing struggle to make the world a better place, generally speaking,
by addressing first-world problems of the lowest magnitude, we now have a new
relationship match:

Parts that Fit Together

Shows parts that naturally fit together which are designed to work together
and which are nearly always used together as a single unit.


If anyone sees where this definition could be improved, then please let me know.
Otherwise, start sending me some new item relationships and let's see how
well this works. I've added a few to get us started and here is one of them
so you can see how it looks:

 
Part No: 3937  Name: Hinge Brick 1 x 2 Base
* 
3937 Hinge Brick 1 x 2 Base
Parts: Hinge
 
Part No: 3938  Name: Hinge Brick 1 x 2 Top Plate
* 
3938 Hinge Brick 1 x 2 Top Plate
Parts: Hinge

See the project on the catalog roadmap:

https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=2476

See the new relationship match added and defined today:

https://www.bricklink.com/catalogRel.asp

So I tried adding a new relationship for
 
Part No: 3937  Name: Hinge Brick 1 x 2 Base
* 
3937 Hinge Brick 1 x 2 Base
Parts: Hinge
and
 
Part No: 6134  Name: Hinge Brick 2 x 2 Top Plate
* 
6134 Hinge Brick 2 x 2 Top Plate
Parts: Hinge
and got an error.
Should I have modified the existing relationship instead?

  so much for that attempt at humor

Sorry, didn't realize it was an attempt at humor. I've been getting
some occasionally unfriendly feedback of late and thus I've tended to assume
things are criticism unless stated otherwise.

It's funny . . . people complain about bitter, unresponsive administrators
and never think to question how that happens.

I like my administrators how I like my coffee... Dark (humor) and bitter

Comments from Submitter:
Picture will follow

It is hard to tell from the images what wheel assemblies are shown. None of them
look like they have yellow wheels, so the change for that one will not be approved
based on these images. If you can tell what wheel assembly is shown with the
white images, I can accept those.

Cheers,
Randy

Sorry, but I didn't find better image than that

Yeah, I don't think that helps very much. I will take a look around later
to see if I can dig up anything better. If not, I will let you go ahead and cancel
the requests instead of rejecting them.

Cheers,
Randy


Okay,
If I don't find better, I'm going to cancel in 24hours

Fred

I have a sealed copy of this set at home, I'll try to remember to check it
when I get there.

Josh

That deserves a huge pat on the back!

Please let us know what you find out.

Thanks,
Randy

Here's a pic showing the yellow wheels. Hope it's clear enough.

Josh

Is there some sort of list you guys are working off of for these changes, or
just going by whatever has these parts? I've got hundreds of sealed sets
from the 80s and 90s and my BrickSet collection is mostly accurate, so if there's
a list of sets that need to be checked, I should be able to see what I have in
my collection and help out more.

Josh

May I send you a list?

Yeah, that would work. I still haven't decided if I'll open any sets
yet or not, but for the boxes I have that the seals are already opened or they
have a visible flap, I can hopefully check for any specific parts.
