Do you really want to sell a torso with 1 arm? Is there is a market for that?

It implies you have to either add the arm to the torso, or bag them separately
to keep them together, or store them unattached but need to remember to add the
robot arm, and hope the buyer finds the robot arm before complaining that it
is missing the arm.

If you attach the arm one time, it is still new according to the rules. That
option is on the table. Bagging them separately and together are both on the
table, together being probably preferable if you are afraid the buyer will not
find the arm.

OK, so it's historical. Will this ever be changed to reflect what is actually
received in a set rather than what is needed for a set, like the debate about
the sprued parts now being the whole sprue rather than the required parts only?

If parting these out it is necessary to assemble them, and I don't want to
assemble them if they later become the individual parts.

Please don't assemble ANY of the minifig parts if you are selling it to me.
Why would this imply that anyone wanted you to do that?

Because at Bricklink you cannot sell the torso assembly as it is supplied by
LEGO. There is not a catalogue entry for the torso, arm and hand and robot arm
without the claw, as supplied by LEGO. To match the catalogue entry, you need
to add the robot arm.

It implies you have to either add the arm to the torso, or bag them separately
to keep them together, or store them unattached but need to remember to add the
robot arm, and hope the buyer finds the robot arm before complaining that it
is missing the arm.

Another illustrative example of why the "consistency" approach doesn't work.
In cases like this, the admins have to choose which practice to be "consistent"
with, which creates inconsistency.

The way to avoid it is to have guidelines that are as simple as possible. "Define
parts based on how they are found in a sealed set" is one simple guideline. If
we always follow that guideline, then the set inventories take care of themselves
and parting out new sets works. If we make an exception, then make more exceptions
because of that first exception, then ultimately ignore the guideline because
"That's they way we've always done it," the guideline has lost its meaning.
When faced with a dilemma like this partly-assembled torso, the decision should
be made in favor of the more basic principle, not later exceptions.

I think it is clear that many of the inconsistencies in the catalog are the result
of implementing ever-more complicated "rules" that are put in place to handle
exceptions rather than basing decisions on a few simple guidelines.

It should surprise nobody that people attracted to Lego are also really into
elaborate systems, but the secret to Lego's success as a system is that it
is not elaborate. Just a few rules create a very flexible system.

I have opened seven of the CMF versions and they do not come like this in the

only the assembly in the inventory, and not having it how it actually comes in

Comments from Submitter:
My set contained dark. Much too late for a sealed pic, but I've had it under control since opening it.

The set probably always contained Trans-Dark Pink. Since your set was sealed
and the original inventory has had so many problems corrected in it over time,
I think I will remove the Trans-Pink one altogether. If a Trans-Pink one is ever
found in the future, we can add it back in.

Randy

Comments from Submitter:
I didn't find photos of sealed set contents here. However, based on my recent inventory change requests, I think the transition from 3650a to 3650b is quite clear now.
- 3650a was included in sets until 1991. We have proof that two sets (8074 and 8856) released in 1991 came with 3650a in early and 3650b in later copies.
- 3650b was included in a copy of set 8837 which was produced in March 1992.
- During my research, I didn't find 3650a in any set released after 1991.

(If this request is accepted, I will continue with the remaining wrong and undetermined entries of this part.)

Hello,
I check my locomotive 10205 with Bricklink Inventory and I found differences...
I bought a new loco, and found the same differences...
I think there are errors into the Bricklink Inventory.
Please find the list of the issues.
Best regards,
Julien

To confirm the inventory, you can find an unboxing there:
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=168313

If I remember correctly, the reason for "extra" parts is because the set

10205-1 (Inv) Locomotive
234 Parts, 2002
Sets: Train: 9V: My Own Train

is the same as

KT205-1 (Inv) Large Train Engine with Tender Black
3 Sets, 2001
Sets: Train: 9V: My Own Train

which is composed of

3741-1 (Inv) Large Locomotive (base unit without color trim elements)
92 Parts, 2001
Sets: Train: 9V: My Own Train

3745-1 (Inv) Locomotive Black Bricks
103 Parts, 2001
Sets: Train: 9V: My Own Train

3742-1 (Inv) Tender Basis (without color trim elements)
39 Parts, 2001
Sets: Train: 9V: My Own Train

Some black parts are sort of 'extra' (from 3745-1) because this set is
used to build other locomotives

For example:

KT305-1 (Inv) Small Train Engine Black
2 Sets, 2001
Sets: Train: 9V: My Own Train

-Fred

OK, thanks for the explanation, and sorry for the "troubles"... I just wanted
to notice a possible issue, which is not an issue anyway.
Julien

The My Own Train locomotive sets 3740 and 3741 were designed to build TWO different
models with full instructions to do so. When building one or the other, there
will be pieces left over.

Here is the page from the instructions showing the alternate build that does
use each of the pieces you show in your original post.

http://lego.brickinstructions.com/03000/3741/013.jpg

These set inventories have stood unchanged for many years because they are accurate
and correct. They were produced and sold by LEGO back before there used to be
intentional Extra Pieces, so every piece in the inventory is needed to build
either the primary or the secondary model.

Also, the packs of colored bricks for these sets --

3743-1 (Inv) Locomotive Blue Bricks
103 Parts, 2001
Sets: Train: 9V: My Own Train

3744-1 (Inv) Locomotive Green Bricks
103 Parts, 2001
Sets: Train: 9V: My Own Train

3745-1 (Inv) Locomotive Black Bricks
103 Parts, 2001
Sets: Train: 9V: My Own Train

3746-1 (Inv) Locomotive Brown Bricks
103 Parts, 2001
Sets: Train: 9V: My Own Train

3747-1 (Inv) Locomotive Gray Bricks
103 Parts, 2001
Sets: Train: 9V: My Own Train

contain the correct parts to build either the
short locomotive or the long locomotive. When done building one or the other,
there will be different pieces left over, but all of the pieces are needed for
one or the other with no extra pieces at all.

Please make changes to the following inventory:

8837-1 (Inv) Pneumatic Excavator
255 Parts, 1992
Sets: Technic: Model: Construction

* Change 1 Part Light Gray {3650a Technic, Gear 24 Tooth Crown (1st Version - Not Reinforced) to 3650b Technic, Gear 24 Tooth Crown (2nd Version - Reinforced)}

Comments from Submitter:
Source: sealed set contents.
Photos found on German site Ebay Kleinanzeigen (Ebay Classifieds), listing 1004287617. Fortunately, the batch code 1012 is visible, meaning this copy was produced in early March 1992. Since the release date was May 1992, it is very likely that this set always came with 3650b.

LEGO used several brands for those transformers.

Seriously, how does autocorrect think that minifies is a word more than minifig

Not sure if sequence number for multiple stickered assembly parts from same set

become [p=BA76pb02]

Only if the brick configuration is exactly the same. In fact, the numbering has
nothing to do with which set it came from. If the brick configuration is the
same as an entry already in the catalog, use that entry's number and increment
the pbxx value by one.

Yeah, that does look bad. I need to go scrub my eyes.

How does the thin portion of a Trans-Light Blue icon part compare to the color
of this strip? My wife took my strip to work, so I can't do it myself right
now. If you can, take a pic holding both up towards a light source like I showed
you for the Trans-Dark Pink ones. Remember, the Trans-Dark Pink flexy films were
much lighter looking when compared to Trans-Dark Pink icon parts until I held
them to the light looking at similar thicknesses. This may be a similar case
as the strip doesn't quite look like Trans-Very Light Blue.

Cheers,
Randy

I was called in to work for a couple of hours to do something super important.
I can check it this evening or tomorrow.

Oops. I forgot that I had this set, so I took a look at the flower flexies.

I am torn on what to do about these bluish-green parts, but I think we should
settle for Trans-Very Light Blue like you have suggested. These flexy films are
milkier than some of the other flexies I bought from you which makes the color
harder to nail down since they do not transmit light through them easily. If
the milky layer wasn't on it, it may look closer to Trans-Light Blue, but
as is looks closer to Trans-Very Light Blue for simplicity.

I will approve your requests for these parts.

Cheers,
Randy

These are partly transparent and all the flexy films are moving to transparent colors. I will attach reference pics.

The pics show this pink flower with a trans-dark pink flexy film. And this "aqua"
flower with another flexy film the same color that I am also changing and a flexy
film called aqua that is a much better fit. And a picture of the two flexy films
I am changing to trans-very light blue with some trans-very light blue plastic
pieces and also trans-light blue.

Can you post an image of that pink flower next to Trans-Pink Clikits parts?

Thanks,
Randy

That looks better than I expected it would.

Beautiful. I will get the pink flower updated. Still going to hold off on the
"aqua" part.

Could you please post an image of the cover card for this set? I would like to
see if it differs from the cover card for the 1999 version. If so, we should
probably make a new catalog entry for the set instead of adding all of these
alternates.

Thanks,
Randy

That front card is different from the 1999 version shown below. I think a new
set entry is going to be the solution to this as they are easy to distinguish
by the part count and theme logo listed on the front. The 1999 version says 804
pieces and has the Dacta logo while the 2003 version says 800 pieces and has
the LEGO educational division logo.

Please submit your set to the catalog as set 9680-2 with the name "Energy Work,
Power Starter Set (2003 Version)". From there, we can start on an inventory of
the set. Could you please send high quality photos of the entire parts list that
was included on the card in your set to inv@bricklink.com?

Comments from Submitter:
I am encountering this color in other sets as I go through them. Aqua wasn't an AWFUL color for it, but it is transparent and there is no trans-aqua. Additionally, there is another transparent flexy film that is a much better match for aqua.

The pics show this film with another the same color and adjacent with trans-very
light blue plastic pieces. Also trans-light for reference. The other pic shows
this film with another film that is also currently "aqua" that is a much better
match for aqua.

Yeah, I bought one of those "aqua" strips from you and was going to get around
to talking about it with you. Have you tried placing it next to the Clikits Trans-Medium
Blue parts that aren't really Trans-Medium Blue but a yet-to-be-added color?
I would be curious to see that image before moving ahead with this.

Randy

I just noticed that

contains both trans-light and trans-medium as
alternates.

Are you going to buy that one or should I?

I think we know the answer to the riddle in that set, but proof is always nice.

Comments from Submitter:
In the course of this investigation: https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1147786 I noticed that my pieces from 7508 were Trans-Light Blue, not Trans-Medium Blue. The colors on these pieces are difficult because of the thickness of the plastic, but I will attach a comparison image that should help it be clearer.

Just comparing to Trans-light blue (the star) the piece looks like a different
color. But a thick Clikit in Trans-medium blue looks way different. But if you
look at the thin plastic in the middle of the round one, it is a good match for
the star. It looks better in person than in the pic. If it isn't trans-light
blue, it is a color that isn't in the catalog, but I think it is close enough.

According to Ryan Howerter, the color of this part is Trans-Medium Blue. See
the last post on this page:

The color that is not on BrickLink yet is the color of the flower in your picture:

This request will not be accepted.

Comments from Submitter:
This is just a cleanup move. I have had this a while and the set isn't sealed anymore, but I trust the handling of the piece. Anyway, the inventory used to be correct as far as consistency with other sets goes, but we've been moving the pieces like this to trans-light orange because it is a better match.

Comments from Submitter:
I wish this was less messy, but since a bunch of parts were specifically changed to trans light orange, I'll leave those in there, even though it means leaving undetermined pieces.

The parts were changed to Trans-Light Orange when the new color was added to
the catalog. I do not think member WoutR had a sealed set to use for those changes,
but was basing it off of assumptions from images. Since you have a sealed set,
the changes you are making will take precedence over the other changes. I will
make the adjustments manually after going through your requests.

Cheers,
Randy

700e H Baseplate?

In the catalog I see there are a few varients of the 700e early baseplate, but
I recently ran across a couple with numbers that werent in the catolog. They
are most similar to the 700eD plates, but to have different featured like the
shape of the cross supports where they cross, and are marked '700 e H'
on the bottom.

Should The 700e H varient be added and/or does anyone know anything about this
baseplate? (sorry I'm very new here or I would attempt to add it myself)

recently i have been buying some Duplo figures for my son and have noted that

why is this? minifigs come with their capes?

Duplo figures have historically not been inventoried with their capes, and I
honestly don't know why. It is something that should probably be added to
the Catalog Roadmap for consideration of being changed.

Comments from Submitter:
I personally think you should consider deleting 171233 and 171207, but it is impossible to prove that it never happened that way.

I have a bunch of pics to attach.

Since
[p=clikits079]
only appears in this one set as Trans-Light Blue and the image of it absolutely
looks like Trans-Very Light Blue, I agree with your assessment to get rid of
the Trans-Light Blue part.

Cheers,
Randy

I also agree with the assessment for removing
[p=clikits021]
in Trans-Light Blue. I don't think a Trans-Light Blue one exists.

Cheers,
Randy

If you want to base the inventories on the consistent contents of the box, that
makes sense from a part-out viewpoint. But this policy does not guarantee that
will happen. It is determining what goes "inside" the box based on what's
printed on the outside of the box, and not what is actually included.

This set consistently had 234 parts that were included inside the box regardless
of where the set was produced and what was printed on the outside of the box
since it was just an amalgam of three other sets that had been repackaged. Therefore,
your argument is moot, and the inventory will stand as is.

No, this example does not invalidate what I am saying. It demonstrates how the
rule applied here, if applied consistently, could lead to inconsistencies in
the inventories. It gives you "accurate" results in this case, but this is only
one case. Had this set only been produced in Europe and had no part count on
the box, it would lead to a different inventory - IF the rule was consistently
applied.

On the other hand, if the extra part designation were eliminated completely,
and the foolish reliance on the imaginary "official" part count was also eliminated,
then it would have the same inventory whether or not there was a part count printed
on the box.

I'm just extending what we are being told is the sole intent of the inventories
on Bricklink - to document the contents of the box so that sellers can more efficiently
part them out. I don't agree this should be the sole intent, but it is what
it is. That being the case, why is there a need to build up ever-more complicated
policies which introduce apparent inconsistencies and rely on the whim of Lego
continuing a practice it has already shown it is willing to change?

You sure do like to flog a life-challenged equine. The set inventory will stand
as is. That is the final decision of the entire admin team.

It is telling that you think I'm calling for the inventory to be changed.

I'm not. The only change I've called for is the elimination of the extra
parts designation, since the admins have to dance around with sets like this
to explain why it is an apparent exception.

If that change were made, this set would stand exactly as it is. So really, I'm
calling for all other set inventories to follow what this one does - put everything
known to be in the box in the regular section.
