This bug has already been fixed but it isn't live yet. We are also adding

  Hey all,
Has anyone else ran into this? I have a sw0620 Tusken Raider mini but without
the markings on his shirt. He is super mint looking and doesn't look like
they have been removed. I will try to take a pic of him to show. So, has anyone
else ran into this one?? Thanks for any info.

I found that 2 of the 6 I have do not shown the markings on the front although
they both have them on the back.
They are not clones as they have lego stamps and I parted them out new from sets
myself. I parted them from two different sets. The battlepack and the speeder
so unsure which one they came from.

Would your software still work if there were one entry with 5 alternate part
numbers?

I prefer it this way. It's a rare occurrence and changing it would save only
a few entries while making the entire sticker sheet database inconsistent.
I see how it can be a problem when you're looking to buy one, but I wonder
how often this really happens?

So are you saying it is preferable for the database but not for buying and selling.
This seems like the better solution?

Would you have 6 entries on your own webshop?

Well, buyers seem OK with puzzling around with minifigs buying them either whole
or in parts. That's also a situation where people are searching for two things
in parallel that come down to the same thing and it's much more common.
It would mess up my syncing software, for one thing. And I think generally item
names being adaptable depending on what is released next is not a good situation.
So yeah, if I can choose, I'd have multiple entries, but that's just
my opinion.

If had to had guess, I say clone. Does it have LEGO printed on the neck?

  Ok I found the "sticker over assembly" group but my question is what is the process
to submit it, when I go to add or change then it asks for the part number and
it doesn't have one because its two parts together with a sticker so how
do I submit it for an add to the set?

This is how I added a stickered assembly a few weeks ago:

First check if there already is an assembly like yours in the catalog by searching
for "assembly slopes".

Results: https://www.bricklink.com/catalogList.asp?q=assembly%20slopes

As you can see, there is no assembly consisting of two curved slopes 4x1. So
your assembly is a new one. Now check the first free number for assembled parts
with stickers. Open the "Sticker Over Assembly" category and sort by item number:
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogList.asp?pg=1&catString=582&itemBrand=1000&catType=P&v=1

The highest number is BA91pb01, so your part number would be BA92pb01.

To be sure this number is not used for a recent entry, check items pending approval:
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogList.asp?itemPend=Y

No results for "BA92pb01", so you can use this number.

For part name, I would suggest "Stickered Assembly 2 x 4 x 1 with Circled Number
9 Pattern (Sticker) - Set 8159 - 2 Slopes Curved 4 x 1 No Studs"
(I have used the name of similar part BA43pb02 as a template).

If exactly the same assembly (two curved slopes 4x1 in our example) is added
with another sticker later, that assembly will get number BA92pb02 etc. That
means "BAxx" stands for the speficic assembly and "pbxx" stands (as always) for
the sticker or imprint.


By the way, the stickered assemblies have to be renumbered in the near future
to get an extra 0.

Regards,
Jonas
