  So it's a door/window/panel/technic/vehicle/slope/arch/brick modified/cylinder..
I think this part just broke the catalog

We used to have the one category it would fit in perfectly - Other.

  Which category? Any other specifics for a listing like this?

Anyone know what set it comes from?

I don't know specifically about these but it looks the same as the attached
pic from set 9833

The US/Canada listing on BL shows a different design (although it is the same
spec)

 
Set No: 9833  Name: AC Adapter, 120V - 10V  Transformer
* 
9833-2 (Inv) AC Adapter, 120V - 10V Transformer
1 Part, 2000
Sets: MINDSTORMS: NXT

But yours does look like the UK version of 9833 but I assume yours has the US/Canada
pins

 
Set No: 9833  Name: AC Adapter, 230V - 10V Transformer Type G Plug (British)
* 
9833-3 (Inv) AC Adapter, 230V - 10V Transformer Type G Plug (British)
1 Part, 2006
Sets: MINDSTORMS: NXT

Could just be an updated design?

is an arch, 49699 should perhaps just be a slope

I don’t quite follow the logic here
Half an arch might be a slope but, surely, an arch + an inverted arch is not
a slope, it’s a cylinder!


  At least it has something in common with
 
Part No: 30180  Name: Slope 45 10 x 2 x 2 Double
* 
30180 Slope 45 10 x 2 x 2 Double
Parts: Slope


  
  
Okay but then it should be a Slope AND a Slope Inverted. And both Double. So
does that make it Quadruple or Double-Double?


We really need a catmin who is used to deep and rigorous classifications.
I don’t know, maybe an entomologist or something like that?

So it's a door/window/panel/technic/vehicle/slope/arch/brick modified/cylinder..
I think this part just broke the catalog

Brickowl has it as: Parts/Uncategorized

So they don't know where to put it either.

It appears very similar to

What do you think it should be?

My first thought is technic or window frame

Well:

1. Window (or door) frame implies you could put a glass or panel (or door)
inside. That seems very unlikely with the technic holes in the way.

2. It’s been used in System (City) sets for now BUT it sure looks like a Technic
Brick, yet not really.
So Technic could do but not really “Technic Brick” and there are no similar parts
(that I know of) in the other Technic categories, that would mean it should fall
in the general “Technic” category, which is already overpopulated.

I’m not envying the catmins

Yep certainly a tough one. It's very clear what it is: A hatch. But how to
catalog it in the existing categories?
I'm voting Door Frame. Alternatively, Vehicle. It may be used in space bases,
but the whole point of hatches is that things are built up from compartments
that have been vehicles at some point.
Hmm, anyone remember the days when we had a "Space" category?

Funny this one - Lego put it into their Bricks, Special category where most of
the modified bricks go. It does look a bit technic Panel, though.

Really do wish we could edit messages. Forgot to say technic bricks are also
in the Bricks, special Lego category - so technic panel could be the right answer????
