  Please make changes to the following inventory:
 
Set No: 4201  Name: Loader and Dump Truck
* 
4201-1 (Inv) Loader and Dump Truck
129 Parts, 2 Minifigures, 2012
Sets: Town: City: Construction

* Add 1 Part 3069b White Tile 1 x 2 with Groove (Counterpart)

Comments from Submitter:
Sticker with black letter "JL 4201" on white 1x2 tile. It shows that it is part of the sticker group but not listed as a counterpart.

This request will be rejected.

You cannot add a plain part to the Counterparts section of an inventory in place
of a stickered part that is currently missing from the BrickLink catalog.

The correct procedure to follow is:

(1) Add the stickered part to the BrickLink catalog:
https://www.bricklink.com/wantedCatalog.asp?catType=P

Help on adding an item to the BrickLink catalog:
https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=71

(2) Add an image to the BrickLink catalog for the stickered part:
https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogImageAdd.page?itemType=P

Help on adding an image to the BrickLink catalog:
https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=87

(3) Fill out an Inventory Change Request to add the stickered part to the inventory
after it is approved by the Catalog Administrators.

Cheers,
Paul

P.S. The following thread may also be of help:

Hi

And also... both stickers are already in the catalog as counterpart.
the OP has a sticker on a wrong part

  Hello everyone,

I'm very pleased to announce that we have appointed a new Inventories Administrator,
to fill in the place that Marek left when he was promoted to Catalog Associate.

For this position we have selected member Paulvdb (Paul), whom many of you may
know as a catalog contributor, inventories contributor, and Forum participant.
He is also an established seller (since 2011, I believe) so many of you may know
him also through that channel.

Paul has distinguished himself especially by his work with older inventories,
sharing many sealed set contents data with the site for some of our precious
old vintage sets. We have found his contributions to be ultra reliable and think
he is going to do very well in this new role.

Congratulations are in order!

Russell

A good choice

Congrats Paul!!

I can't tell. They were found in used bricks I bought. According to BrickLink:
1984-2018 (timeline of 4624 wheel).

Hi

Yes they are factory pre-assembled wheels.

The first ones that came out were glued or pressed together.
Same for the 3464c02 and 4624c01 and 4624c02.
(from 1984-85 till I think begin 90s)
Also same for the first 6015 type with the 6014a.

The rubber is also harder, the assembles are softer in rubber.


Stefaan

Were these only glued in certain regions? This time frame was the heyday of my
LEGO collecting as a child, but I can't ever recall seeing glued wheels (and
I took *everything* apart). I only ever bought sets from the US though.

Do you happen to recall any specific sets that would have had glued wheels? I
have a ton of sealed sets from this era and would like to try and see if any
of them might be glued.

Josh

Hi

They came assembled, that's for sure.
As I wrote: 'glued or pressed'

I had a lot 6015+6014a and I took them apart and there was a residue of glue
on them.
(6015+6014a begin 90s)

For the small wheel and tyre, when it's a harder plastic you can't remove
them.
Start begin half 80s when this new type wheel came out.

(some inv. are not correct and the wheel ass. don't pop-up in the list)

Well, the first train that looked like a train and had tracks to roll on.
There were Duplo connecting cars before 1980. Even without tracks, connected
cars very much spell train to a 2-year-old

Sealed Set contained 2 more each of these pieces. It did not have an old brick separator, but I'll leave that alone.


Hi

About the brick separator, that's possible: first runs not, updated runs
with one?
