  Hi,
I could not find anything on the topic :/
Could anyone explain please why are leaflets (instructions) for each minifigure
of the series kept separately in the catalog when they seems to be all the same?

It seems especially weird, when I saw that someone bought leaflet for percival
graves for such high price:
https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?I=colhp-22#T=P
while it seems that this leaflet is just pretty the same as all the rest of the
leaflets from this series....

Thx in advance,
J.

And please see another photo:

  Hi jerzeeg,

Each collectable minifigure leaflet has an unique number. On the backside of
the leaflet at one of the corners there is a small red or black circle with a
white dot inside containing the number of that particular collectable minifigure.

Note: The unique numbering of the minifigs in the catalog is not the same
as the unique leaflet numbering.

Example: catalog set number col12-2 (Hun-Warrior) has number 8 on leaflet.

Hi Yutani,

thank you for the answer! Anyway it seems it does not apply everytime. In example
for HP there is unluckily nothing like that :/
Leaflets from different bags have all the same number in both the top-right corner
(as on screenshot) or the bottom left corner.
Please see the screenshots:

There is also a variation that has a 32064 opening on 1 side and a 32064b on
the other.

Is this only a "b" variant if it has the 'thin' corner guides seen from

The cape from this Robin matches the cut of the brand new Robin, but if I had

Can anyone check?

My first reply to you was just an answer to your question. I do not agree with
the inconsistency, also, but I am not a catalog associate yet who can do anything
about it. I would be happy to have Marek add it to the Catalog Roadmap for consideration
of being worked on, but it would be rather low on the priority list. Although,
it would not be a big issue to tackle, so could be done rather quickly.

Cheers,
Randy

You just said it has two arms, but it doesn't unless you are counting the
unattached robot arm and claw. The catalog picture for a minifigure shows the
minifigure assembled. Most catalog pictures for sets show the set assembled.
But your customers are not expecting you to take what Lego supplied and assemble
it for them like the picture.

  And there are plenty of listings for torsos without arms, whether there is a
market for them or not. They all get catalogued even though this is not how lego
supply them. Yet these pieces don't get listed as they are supplied - but
do get catalogued if you either add another part or remove some parts.

Yes, there are listings for EVERY torso with arms. While Lego never supplied
them with no arms and the market for unattached torsos varies greaty among them,
the point of having every torso in the catalog is that every torso is a discrete
Lego element. The catalog tries to contain every discrete Lego element, but
has always been cautious about having listings for combinations of pieces. A
full minifig, yes. Some big figs and brickbuilt animals now, yes. Combined
turntables that sometimes came assembled in sets, yes. Some combinations that
are hard to take back apart without damage, yes. But some minifig parts in an
obviously incomplete assembly because Lego supplied them? I don't see the
point and it opens a giant can of worms. Did you know that through the 80s and
90s, minifig torsos usually came with their heads attached? Should we have a
listing for each of those head/torso combinations because Lego supplied them
that way? Does anyone really want a head and torso with no hat or legs? Or
a torso with 1 arm and 1 hand? I doubt it unless the price is very low.

I think the "can of worms" is when BL makes exceptions based on precedent in
one case, but ignores precedent in other cases. The squishy definition of what
merits a separate entry in the catalog is part of what has led to issues like
this.

There may indeed be people who want to buy the torso/head assemblies from the
older sets, and there would be no harm in adding them to the catalog and including
them in inventories. But an exception has been made. We are told that some assemblies
need to be deleted from the catalog because they were never packaged that way,
yet some assemblies that were issued as new are not? Why is that?

Well, it isn't based on what people want, obviously. The market for 1x1 round
plates on the sprue is tiny compared to that for the individual plates, yet that
is the part inventoried in sets where it appeared. The market for the 1x4 hinge
assembly is many times larger than the market for the individual pieces, yet
the assembly is marked for deletion.

Consistent application of a set of simple guidelines would eliminate a lot of
these issues. In the past - and even now - it seems when faced with conflicts
like this the admins have chosen to add complexity rather than opt for simplicity.
Either way is going to result in apparent inconsistencies, but the way that requires
the least amount of waffling and explanation is preferable, in my opinion.

sell the parts that LEGO supplied here, I have to sell either a combination of
them or pull them apart. There is no option to sell it as it was originally supplied.

It is the inconsistency that is a problem. Going back to the sprues, LEGO did
not intend them to be used according to the pictures of the sets. But BL catalogues
these parts as coming on a sprue. They are listed as coming that way in the set,
whether or not all the parts are needed. There is an option to sell the parts
connected to a sprue (or in a bag) as supplied or sell the parts individually.
Whereas here, they are not listed as they come in the set. There is no option
to sell the parts as supplied.

  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

Please don't assemble ANY of the minifig parts if you are selling it to me.

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

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 am usually a fan of dynamically posed catalog pics, but this time I just can't
tell if this piece is the same cut as a new piece that I need to get into the
catalog. Can someone tell me if the attached pic is the same shape?

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

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.

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)

The AFOL sets are not real LEGO sets, right?

Have they been catalogued incorrectly or are the filters not working correctly?

Right now for the Hero Factory theme, there are 3 categories (Heroes,Villains,Vehicles).


I was wondering if each release wave theme could get its own sub-category (Breakout,
Brain Attack, Invasion from below, ETC...)

I can use the catalog add/change feature, just wondering if it should be done
first.

I got two of these in a set that will need its inventory updated. But I am trying
to figure it out. The part is inventoried but it doesn’t really look playable.
I gave it a soft tug to see if it was just clutched and I don’t think it is.

I've noticed their ink often doesn't take to their bendy heads. 9 years
of bustling between bricks and it's gone completely. If you look at the listings,
you'll see it's a common issue.

Whoa! That house elf appears to have suffered a stroke.

Thank you for your reply. The problem with my yoda is it has closed eyes. The

It's this one 100%. Almost all listings mention the eyes, or lack of
