Yes, create two specific entries so that the original entry will be able to be

I've run into friends polybags that are the same way. I always try to keep
sets together for resale, but sometimes I'm shocked that its not worth it
for the tiny sets.
I also just finished a Ninjago set recently where the figure was rare-ish and
more than I wanted to pay and I found a seller who had parted a bunch of that
fig out and was able to buy him in pieces for far less than buying the assembled
fig. Its normally the reverse.

FWIW I had a 4 cent part get removed/flagged very recently because I had somehow
hit new on it when listing it (it was bizzare because the rest of the part out
was marked used with comments stating "good for used" or something to that affect).
So there is either a person or an algorithim out there doing something.

"Minifigs - The catalog should only contain minifigs that came in an official
LEGO set or that can be attributed to an official LEGO program, display, activity
or event, regardless of whether the minifig is actually publicly distributed
during or at such program, display, activity or event.
The minifig item should not include hand-held accessories or items defined as
utensils, with the exception of robot winder keys. But do include all other accessories
definable as footgear (flippers, snow shoes, etc.), neckgear (generally defined
as items requiring the removal of the head in order to be placed over the neck,
such as capes, armor, backpacks, etc.) and headgear (hair, helmets, etc.), and
assembled parts serving as such, when these are shown attached to the minifig
in official LEGO set instructions. For instructions with images showing the minifig
in a play scenario, refer only to the portion of the instructions concerned with
assembling the minifig. If no official instructions were produced, then illustrations
on packaging or other marketing materials directly related to the minifig may
be used instead for this guide purpose. (See Exceptions below.)
Minifigs decorated by a sticker may have an entry for the figure without the
sticker applied, and an entry for the figure with the sticker applied. (See Exceptions
below.)
If 2 or more minifigs that came in an official LEGO set are the same except for
different hand-held accessories, do not add another entry for a minifig with
a particular accessory. An example of this would be "Majisto the Wizard with
glow-in-the-dark wand" which should not be added in addition to an otherwise
identical "Majisto the Wizard" entry.
Exceptions:
When the use of set instructions or other official LEGO images provide poor clues
about the precise nature of accessories: For example, numbers printed on neckgear
armor worn by each figure of a series, yet nowhere is it clearly shown which
figure bears which numbered armor. In this case the figures can be added without
neckgear armor. Arbitrarily associating a particular numbered armor with the
other elements of a minifig should not be done.
When the hand held accessory is an integral physical part of the minifig: For
example, the electric light-up figs released beginning in 2005. All the parts
that make up the complete light-up device, including those not integral to its
electric function, should be included as a part of the minifig.
When there is more than one possibility presented within a set for decoration
of the minifig by sticker, a catalog entry should not be created for each variation.
This rule also applies to the Torso and Torso Assembly parts of such minifigs.
For example, some Soccer theme sets have a sticker sheet that allows the builder
to choose from various team insignias and jersey numbers for each player in the
set. If every variation were given an entry, the catalog would be overwhelmed.
The early “stiff” minifigs (1975-1977) were often built into the model and not
shown in a freestanding position. In these cases, a minifig can be considered
a unit without being prescribed as such in the instructions or box images as
long as the four basic parts are present – legs, torso, head and hat/hair."

They're using less crude oil by no longer using it to make plant peices.

I guess producing crude oil generates a lot of emissions. But I wonder how much
less emissions their new production process really involves. I guess it kind
of stands or falls with that.
The end result is the same: polyethylene, which is basically a polluting substance.
But that's if you throw it away, of course, and thankfully LEGO is far from
single use. But the amount of parts LEGO pumps out of their machines per day
is staggering and it has to go somewhere eventually.
I would be more impressed if LEGO invested in degrading plastic. Not making parts
that degrade, I mean, but degrading the durable high quality parts with some
special process. I don't know about ABS but scientists already discovered
caterpillars that are able to digest polyethylene. If LEGO had some scheme you
could send in old and broken parts in exchange for some VIP points of whatever,
and they'd degrade or recycle it, then we'd be talking.

No, they couldn’t. Most of the parts are ABS, not PE. Different plastics, different
processes.
PE can be made from ethanol. (Ahoy matey, sugar cane is rum!)
ABS is more complex.

It's the same plastic: Polyethylene. It's just made from fresh plants
rather than from dinosaurs (oil). But it isn't biodegradable in any way and
as far as I can see doesn't have much merit in terms of sustainability or
the environment.
"The new sustainable LEGO elements are made from polyethylene, which is a soft,
durable and flexible plastic, and while they are based on sugar-cane material,
they are technically identical to those produced using conventional plastic."

Intentions aside, it's kind of fascinating - plants turned into plastic mimicking
plants. The equivalent of making a long-lasting forest diorama out of chemically
processed wood and pine resin?
No more plastic straws where I live, just like plastic bags a few years back.
The zoomers' kids' kids are going to grow up with flimsy magnetic-silicone
LEGO and holographic bricks. Good thing ABS takes forever to break down

It is due to the fact that each collectible minifigure is treated as a separate
set in the BrickLink catalog. Since each set entry in the BrickLink catalog automatically
has an instructions entry added to it on creation, each collectible minifigure
set gets an instructions entry added to it on creation. It would be wrong to
say that each one of these sets does not have instructions included with it,
since each collectible minifigure does indeed come with the leaflet. Therefore,
each collectible minifigure set gets the leaflet as its instructions.

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:

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.

You just said it has two arms, but it doesn't unless you are counting the

|
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.

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.

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.

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.

Only if the brick configuration is exactly the same. In fact, the numbering has

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

It’s as Michael (Hurt) posted, with missing print. I don’t think it’s “worn off”
too clean. It's not uncommon with earlier Lego modified heads produced in

I've noticed their ink often doesn't take to their bendy heads. 9 years

It should really drop the "The" as well - we don't have The Butcher, The

So I've change it to be the same as minifig entry, but you know in the future
a new admin can change it back again

Thanks, hopefully the dual name will stay. I know people use both.
Thanks also for correcting the spelling of ANTON'S tile.

And on their webpages, LEGO refer to it as ACTOR. If it can have only one name,
then surely it should be the LEGO one.
