Will you accept other counterparts (stickered doors) for this set? The sticker

How do I go about asking for these two items to be added to your catalog?

They were added but I rejected them due to this reason, stickers are wrongly
applied.

In LDD, look at the Part # / Design ID in the status line. Use that as a search
term. To catch patterned or composite parts, add a star.

“MINI ALIEN PET” = 95204, a search for “95204*” gives:
 
Part No: 95204pb01  Name: Alien Clinger with White Eye with Black Pupil Pattern
* 
95204pb01 Alien Clinger with White Eye with Black Pupil Pattern
Parts: Animal, Land

“SHELL - MORNING STAR” = 54177, a search for “54177” gives:
 
Part No: 54177  Name: Minifigure, Weapon Spiked Ball Half with 2 Axle Holes
* 
54177 Minifigure, Weapon Spiked Ball Half with 2 Axle Holes
Parts: Minifigure, Weapon

If you want both, add them in a Wanted List and then you can search stores (
https://www.bricklink.com/v2/wanted/buy.page ).

I didn't realize they HAD been added, as I kept searching for the numbers
I had given them as I made the addition form. I didn't know that the "approver"
would change them. That's good though!

They were needed a correction as they weren't properly numbered

It depends if pending item is problematic or not.

  And, can I perhaps expect
a message or some other notification that "your item has been added", or similar?


No messages are sended when item is approved. Correspondence with submitter is
only with problematic items (somtimes, firstly a note is added to pending item
in such cases - in item name like in this one for example [p=15068pb169x]) or
when they are rejected.

That is why submitters should check they "My activity page"
https://www.bricklink.com/myActivity.asp
or this page, section "My Additions Pending Approval:"
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogAdd.asp

Pending items can bee seen also here
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogPend.asp

You should check also this page where new additions to the catalog are showed
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogListOld.asp?

Check this help page also
https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=2482
There are also answers to questions about pending items.

They were already approved on Monday if you're talking about these two.

I've requested two changes to listings in the past, both were approved really
quickly but I didn't get a message. If you click on "My Activity" from your
profile, you can see the requests you've made and how many have been approved.

year on them. Do I have a different part or the catalog needs an update?

Thanks,
Tamas

The year on the part is the copyright year. The year in the Bricklink catalog
is when it was first included in a set. This is often a year later because of
the time it takes to design and then produce parts.

It's only missing the lightsaber.

However different to the listing the minifig is permanently glued to the base
+ Torso to the Legs. Basically only Head arms and cape are removable.

  Is there
a plan to include these glued Magnetfigs in the catalog?

No

  Or is only the complete
set considered sellable.
Also there maybe should be added a notice to those sets in regards of being glued
or with lose minifigs.

Should I just list them as 4070?

Thankfully, since there are so many headlight bricks with varying levels of partial
holes. It was definitely a manufacturing defect.


You think the horizontal slot is a defect?

I believe, until Lego says otherwise, the slot is meant to be like this.

Out of all my 4070 at least 80% have a slot, no matter what year or color, no
matter what set it came from.
Too much for a defect.

It is a slot that is always the same form, sharply formed, very straight and
small.

I think it could be made for pressure relieve.

Yes, if you look from the inside, the hole is always moulded there. Sometimes
there is a thin skin over it. I think all my newer parts have the slot, with
older ones being hit and miss.

I believe the note on the part 'This part is occasionally found with a small
horizontal slot in the front near the base. This is believed to be an unintentional
feature.' is incorrect. Should be the other way round 'occasionally
found WITHOUT a small...'

Exactly my idea!
Maybe we should ask for a catalog change.

I've changed the catalog note for both entries. See if that sounds better
to you.

Many years ago I managed to speak directly with a Lego engineer. I reported it
to Admin and for some time the description of the conversation was shown in the
Additional Notes for the part.
The slot is NOT intentional but is more a problem with the design of the part.
Whether a slot forms or not is down, mainly, to the age of the mold.
A redesign is not possible and it is considered to be such a minor flaw that
keeping things as they are is better than scrapping the part altogether.

Thankfully, since there are so many headlight bricks with varying levels of partial
holes. It was definitely a manufacturing defect.


You think the horizontal slot is a defect?

I believe, until Lego says otherwise, the slot is meant to be like this.

Out of all my 4070 at least 80% have a slot, no matter what year or color, no
matter what set it came from.
Too much for a defect.

It is a slot that is always the same form, sharply formed, very straight and
small.

I think it could be made for pressure relieve.

Yes, if you look from the inside, the hole is always moulded there. Sometimes
there is a thin skin over it. I think all my newer parts have the slot, with
older ones being hit and miss.

I believe the note on the part 'This part is occasionally found with a small
horizontal slot in the front near the base. This is believed to be an unintentional
feature.' is incorrect. Should be the other way round 'occasionally
found WITHOUT a small...'

Exactly my idea!
Maybe we should ask for a catalog change.

Now if we could just get rid of the ridiculous entries for "smooth slopes."

This is something we are going to look into. From what I have seen over the years,
there is no real "smooth slopes" for some of those parts (or any of them). What
they are are parts that come from molds where the sand-blasted texture has been
worn down over time making the slopes look more smooth than others that were
produced when the molds were new. One thing is for certain - none of them are
smooth like real smooth-molded slopes such as
 
Part No: 11477  Name: Slope, Curved 2 x 1 x 2/3
* 
11477 Slope, Curved 2 x 1 x 2/3
Parts: Slope, Curved

Cheers,
Randy


Don't forget about
 
Part No: 3678a  Name: Slope 65 2 x 2 x 2 without Bottom Tube
* 
3678a Slope 65 2 x 2 x 2 without Bottom Tube
Parts: Slope
versus
 
Part No: 3678b  Name: Slope 65 2 x 2 x 2 with Bottom Tube
* 
3678b Slope 65 2 x 2 x 2 with Bottom Tube
Parts: Slope
with complete, intended smoothness
in the a-version.

Speaking of Bionicle, you could have one of those common Technic ball-joint

such a piece. That's got me brainstorming...

Okayyyyy- now I see it! You may be right!

Sort of reminds me of this thing someone 3D printed:

https://www.myminifactory.com/de/object/3d-print-1l-lego-technic-liftarm-81004

Of course you wouldn't want to get THAT stuck in a 32474! (I occasionally
run into a similar 'homemade solution' when I find 1L axle stubs snapped
off of Bionicle detail parts in used LEGO batches. I had to drill a tiny center
hole and drive a fine screw into the bit to remove it on a couple occasions.)

I *had* seen it, probably at the same time as the new 2x4 brick with axle holes
and that technic connector block...

But I can't find it so I probably noticed the part when I was looking at
new items pending approval in our catalog...

All I can say is that I really would like a part like that! I can already
think of some situations I could have solved easily with that. Hopefully some
sleuth can sort this out for us. Please keep us updated.

Why do you think that smooth slopes is not an appropriate entry? I actually prefer
textured slopes and when I order textured slopes and get smooth slopes it does
not make me happy.

Can I ask what proof is required to submit the rectangular version of the 3062oldtile
?

I have both the one shown below and the rectangular version without stud that
I suppose would be something like 3005oldtile.

Not ready to list just yet but might want to do so sometime this year.

There are 87 of the "set", whereas there are 4294 listings for the part. So most
people have listed them as the single part. The sealed ones listed as sets are
likely to be correct, as are the used ones listed as sets as they do not need
to contain the packaging (although the listing should say that).

If you have plenty of a single part set (or single minifigure set), it is often
a good idea to list some as the part (or minifigure) and some as the set, as
different buys will search for different things.

Thanks, that is very helpful
