Thanks for your feedback in private messages guys

Bricklink recently moved all torsos with pattern into a new category, which resulted
in avsearch not finding them.

I've fixed it now by adding an option for plain/decorated torsos. Enjoy:
http://avbricks.no/#/avSearch

avSearch is based on goatleg by 62Bricks with some additional input from mfav.

For your information, the new nougat colors are not yet fixed, but I am aware
of the issue.

I'm considering to take my store from being a hobby into something more,
and would love to get some feedback. I am planning to find out how much it costs(how
many hours) to sort and register used-bulk-lots. Did anyone measure or research
how much time you spend to sort bulk lego, and what is the best strategy? My
current strategy is:

1) sort everything into 10 self-made categories
2) sort each category into specific pieces or narrower categories
3) repeat previous step until everything is sorted by specific pieces
4) sort each specific piece by color
5) Add to my inventory.

I plan to check kg/minute speed for each of my steps.

I noticed that Minifigure torsos have now been split up into decorated and plain,
which is pretty handy. Is more subdividing on the way with other categories like
legs? I always have a hard time finding the right pair of plain legs.

I may have missed a discussion but was there a specific reason why all the big
figures have been renamed as "Big Figure - NAME"

e.g.
 
Minifig No: sh414  Name: Bane
* 
sh414 (Inv) Bane
Minifigures: Super Heroes: The LEGO Batman Movie
 
Minifig No: sw0402  Name: Jabba The Hutt - Tan Face
* 
sw0402 (Inv) Jabba The Hutt - Tan Face
Minifigures: Star Wars: Star Wars Episode 4/5/6

Would it not have been better to be "NAME (Big Figure)" so that they still appear
in the correct alphabetic order in their respective categories?

I'm new to the Bricklink ecosystem, including selling. I've gotten the
Store API up and running to help drive my personal inventory software and replace
the Rebrickable API I've been using up until now. Because Bricklink maintains
records for parts with sticker and for assembled minifigs this switch is critical
for me.

However I'm running into one roadblock - how to programmatically download
the full Part List and Set List. I see in the API docs that the only Lists I
can access are colors and categories. But for items I seem to need to specify
the item number.

I have manually downloaded part list and set list from the Downloads page but
I can't figure out how to do that using code.

I've noticed that the program BrickStock updates its database automatically
which makes me think it's possible to do. Is it?

Please help. I don’t understand the apparent randomness of the abbreviated naming
rules for minifigures. I collect DC superheroes - specifically anything in a
Batman set. Back many years ago Batman Sh016 had a type 1 cowl. Shortly after
Lego released a type 2 cowl variant and this entered the catalogue as Sh016b.
And now in 2019 as part of the Gotham comic con scene and a magazine exclusive
they release With a sponge cape and this is now Sh016b. This is inconsistent
with other naming conventions. Which is right? For example the first repeat
in the Batman theme was the riddler Bat017. Then he got released with a jet
pack but identical figure and that was Bat023. So should the same figure but
with an accessory variant be a brand new number in the theme or should it be
an a/bc??

Hello

Question, about adding some additnal change on a minifig in a set.

I'm starting to sell some old sets, in this case 2 sets of 7171.

I have seen that in both sets minifig SW0017 doesn't have DG color hips but
LG Hips.

Both Sets are original with boxes en inner boxes.
So the first one I didn't understand why Jar Jar had different color legs;
but on parting out the 2nd the same color so my guess is that Jar Jar SW0017
also
can have LG hips.

How to proof or change/add to the part list as adittional minifig?

Thanks & Keep Safe

Hi,

The reason why 3830c01 Hinge Brick 1 x 4 Swivel is marked for deletion is not
justified IMHO ("it sets a precedent for adding dozens of unnecessary combinations
of hinges").

I don't think anyone has the intention to create colour-combinations for
these two parts combined.

Most sellers just want to sell the two parts together to avoid unequal (worthless)
quantities of the underlying parts.

So can this decision be undone please so that new items can be listed?

Best regards,
Kris - Autour des Briques

This is a secondary concern, also having to do with Games being listed under
Gear.

In the case of G3853, there are a number of sellers trying to sell the empty
box. But Gear does not allow for listing Original Boxes, only Instructions. Therefore,
they are listing them under the primary set listing.

Can anything be done about this shortcoming in Gear ? I know that in Sets, it
is variable if a Set has Instructions or not. The same may apply within Gear
for Boxes.

Does 3024 plate 1x1 exist in Metallic Gold?

I do have some examples in front of me (genuine parts) that don't look at
all as Pearl Gold but do look as Metallic Gold. But the latter is not featured
as a known colour.

Can someone else confirm the existence of 3024 in Metallic Gold?

And if so, please add it to the catlogue as a known colour!

I was about to create the stickered counterpart

counterparts for 1x2x1 panels are created as "4865pbXXX", ignoring which variant

for the stickered 1x2x2 bricks, both variants of the brick exists as

There is an error in the catalog regarding the heads for referenced minifigs.
The catalog says both scd001 and scd003 have the same heads, however they are
different if you look at their faces in the catalog. Also, if you look up the
head numbers on both, it says that 2 minifigs have the same head: scd001 and
scd003, but they don't.

In actuality, scd001 has head number 3626cpd1379; scd003 has 3626cpd1375. When
you try to look up 3626cpd1375, the catalog references head 3626cbpb1379. You
cannot buy 3626cpb1375 on the market, it automatically looks up 3626cbp1379.

This is the first time I've found an error in the catalog. I want to buy
3626cpb1375. Will I be notified when the catalog is fixed?

Thank you,

Ms. Dale Kurtz

Hello,

is this possible to ask for a description enhancement? The part 6553 for example
is just impossible to find without Jedi powers, it does not even have axle in
the name...

Is there a procedure for this kind of demand?

Thanks

Any plan to resurrect special assemblies?

I came across a mostly complete

 
Set No: 76031  Name: The Hulk Buster Smash
* 
76031-1 (Inv) The Hulk Buster Smash
224 Parts, 4 Minifigures, 1 Book, 2015
Sets: Super Heroes: Avengers Age of Ultron

I didn't want to break the hulkbuster down so I decided I'd list him
on another site and oh boy...
Apparently said site has a new policy where buyers can request a cancellation
in the first hour.

Didn't see that message request and printed a label while I was in paypal
printing 10 other labels for bricklink.

Apparently, the action of printing a label automatically denies a buyer's
cancellation request.
Which is silly as I had no problem refunding since I hadn't shipped.

The other site would not let me cancel and refund through them. I got in contact
with CS and they said I had to refund through the paypal transaction since "I
denied the original request".
Then if I gave CS the paypal transaction, they would give me credit for the fees,
but I'm not holding my breath. I'm guessing they'll credit back the
final value fee, but I'm definitely out on the papal fees and the jury's
out on the sales tax.

Funny how THEY charge the buyer sales tax, and then when YOU give a full refund,
the sales tax portion gets refunded out of YOUR balance!?

Another funny thing is that paypal adds the sales tax that ebay collects to the
total and charges you 2.9% on that total. So you're paying a percent fee
on a percent tax collected by another entity..

I personally don't feel there should be sales tax on used items.

These days, that other site is about only good for buying and sorting out high
quality pcs to relist on this site.

So if special assemblies are a hassle with inventories, can we list partial components
of sets as "custom items"?

I have torso v neck blue overalls with white arms and wide stitch spacing on
overalls as seen in picture of listing cty0340.
However when i go into the parts of that listing the torso has a different tight
stitch spacing and the head post has the black part on it(mine does not have
this black mark either). I have looked and am unable to find any other pictures
or references.
I have 3 of them if that helps.
Wondering if anyone can identify the difference and what set i may have that
they specifically come from.
Thanks

Hi,
I recently bought a holder for trading cards, and it has a list of all the possible
cards (SW Series 2) with their numbers. Does it help if I add all the items to
the catalog? I have a few more where I will also add the images of the cards,
but in many cases, I won't.
Thanks,

Hello all, I've got several Toys R Us and Barnes & Noble build event sets
(May 4th promo events, etc). I don't see these sets in the Bricklink Catalog.
Is it possible to add those? (Can I submit them?) Or is this an area that
is not added to the catalog typically?

Thanks for your time!

Todd

I know it’s a very small order

I've submitted a load of stickered counterparts for set 75877, unfortunately
I'm missing the following four parts so can't take photographs (and needed
to add them to the database to make them easier to find for sale!). The others
have been approved but not sure what to do for these ones?

once they are together?

I feel like the axles are going to snap off of the 2X2 plates if I pull any herder
than I already am. Also, I've never seen a post with a tapered part at the
end like the chassis piece has. It seems a bit like those Bionicle brains and
heads.

I just came across of a set of 6 Legoland Sierksdorf postcards: 5 are showing
the German WM soccer team of 1974 on a visit a Legoland Sierksdorf (black and
white). The sixth one shows the entrance of Legoland Sierksdorf and on the back
there are autographs of the soccer team.

I only came twice across this set in a lot of years - add to the catalog as a
set or single?

Thanks for any advice

I think the sticker of part 4170pb01 for set 7745 is a little bit bigger, than
the sticker for set 7740. See image (below=7745; up=7740)

Quite a few of today's sets not only contain instructions (= booklets or
single sheets of paper) but also other paper items. These are included to promote
the product line or to provide information about what you can do with the set.
Currently there's no way to add these to a set inventory which means that
--as a seller-- you cannot sell a set as 'complete' until these
items are part of the catalogue inventory.

Example:
 
Set No: 41906  Name: Pencil Holder
* 
41906-1 (Inv) Pencil Holder
351 Parts, 2020
Sets: Dots
contains an instruction sheet https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?I=41906-1#T=S&O={%22ss%22:%22NL%22,%22rpp%22:%2250%22,%22iconly%22:0}
and a leaflet/flyer --whatever you want to call it-- with building ideas
and a product overview.

For the above set I added this paper sheet to the catalogue under number 6317480.
I can't add a link to this item in the form of p=xxxx or whatever because
it's not supported in the macro tags. See https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=1147
Also: this item is nowhere linked to the sets in which it appears.

StormChaser approved it with the item number 'm20dots' and description
'2020 Mini Dots (6317480)'. BTW: I don't think this is very helpful.

I think we need a way to add those paper leaflets to the inventory of a set.
There are two ways to do this:
1. make items like this a part of the inventory or
2. extend the current set description [set entry | instructions entry | box
entry]
with '| other included items' or whatever you want
to call it.

Some takeaway observations so far.

Catalog is inconsistent in how it treats variants.
- Sometimes there is one ID number for two different designs.
-- Sometimes these design differences are noted, other times not
- Sometimes there is one ID number plus a letter (1234a, 1234b, etc.) indicating
different designs
- Sometimes there is one ID number plus "alternate numbers" for a single design
-- Sometimes these alternate ID numbers are the same design
-- Sometimes these alternate ID numbers are a different design

I would suggest that 48729 and 48729b are functionally different designs.
I would suggest that 48729b is actually 41005, and 41005 is a later variant of
48729b.

21 unique clip shapes to this point.

Some clip shape differences are obvious and others are subtle. Many probably
can't be distinguished by most people, even upon close examination. Through
the process of photographing these elements, and bringing the actual 6mm size
up to somewhere around 180mm these differences become more apparent.

So the differences are now cataloged and you can deal with them or not as you
see fit.

There's probably another page or two to come, but this is pretty slow going.

Hi

 
Part No: 4215pb003  Name: Panel 1 x 4 x 3 with Blue, Red and Silver Space Mechanical Pattern on Inside (Sticker) - Set 6949 (Undetermined Type)
* 
4215pb003 Panel 1 x 4 x 3 with Blue, Red and Silver Space Mechanical Pattern on Inside (Sticker) - Set 6949 (Undetermined Type)
Parts: Panel, Decorated
Marked for Deletion

I have this item with solid studs, so should be under 4215a

It is currently under 4215 which is undetermined.

Can anyone check the third picture - comes up too small for me, to see the studs

If they are solid, which I think they are, this wants re-assigning to a 4215a
number

Thanks

Seriously, what genius thought the best avatar brick in the catalog should be
white when the background is white too. So many hard to figure out bricks. Please
change all white avatar bricks to something more visible.

TLG is distributing general product flyers in sets within the same theme. For
example DOTS and Ninjago Arcade Pods. The flyers are all the same, so not specific
to a particular set.
Can I add those to the catalog? And where: book / gear / catalog / somewhere
else?

I apologize for the quick lo-res pic, but I think a lot of people are familiar
with this piece. It's the sprue from [p=19807c01]. And it IS just a sprue.
But I was looking it over today before tossing it in the trash and it is a pretty
neat looking piece AND it was obviously designed with some play value, because
it fits on a stud. It has never been used in a set, I believe, but it is easy
for me to imagine it being useful in MOCs. Would it be silly to add it to the
catalog?

The catalog has separate listing for parts 89652 & 60176, the only difference
being the open lower axle holes. For consistency shouldn't parts 89650 &
61053 have separate listings, they differ in the same way from each other.

Hello

with custom image?

Many thanks in advance

This is sort of akin to Number Six on your roadmap. I think.

Is there a standardization scheme in the works for items like these shown, and
similar items, where the length exceeds the footprint of the attachment plate?

If you're going by the scheme used for 6239, then 2430 ought to be a 1x5.
If you're going by the scheme used for 2430, then 6239 ought to be a 2x3.

I know this is bound to have implications all over the catalog with many modified
bricks and plates and other things, especially when you get into SNOT pieces,
but there's inconsistency within and across categories now.

One would think the overall x-y-z dimensions of the piece would be considered
every time...

I know this is going to require some quiet contemplation followed by noisy debate,
but some semblance of consistency would be really nice to have.

Hi everyone,

my set
 
Set No: 70432  Name: Haunted Fairground
* 
70432-1 (Inv) Haunted Fairground
443 Parts, 5 Minifigures, 2020
Sets: Hidden Side
came with a new minifigure head type with two holes and new
number 28621. It is already listed at Brickset:
https://brickset.com/parts/design-28621

Looks like the new mold is only used for transparent heads. All three trans-neon
green heads (1x plain, 2x printed) in my set are the new type while all other
heads are 3626c.

How should the new type (and the printed variants) be added to the catalog?

Regards,
Jonas

There are problems with these:

[P=41168c01]
[P=41168c02]
[P=41168c03]
[P=41168cx2]

Additionally, there are others not in the catalog. There are various problems
with images, part numbers, colors, inventories, titles, etc., etc.

Bored? Dive in and clean it up! Figure out what needs to be done and start
submitting the necessary requests/additions.

I don't have time + interest at this particular moment, but it needs to be
done.

I was trying to identify some Marbled Bionicle Rhotuka Spinner and I noticed
that only 2 colors show up in the known colors list. However, if you click the
link for Color Images it shows actual pictures of 13 identified colors. Why aren't
the other 11 colors shown in the known list? I have the Yellow Marbled and Dark
Red Marbled on hand if additional pictures are needed. The ones I have came from
a bulk lot purchased years ago so, I have no way to identify which set they are
from. My intuition tells me they were from either set #8748-1 or set #6620-1.
 
Set No: 8748  Name: Rhotuka Spinners
* 
8748-1 (Inv) Rhotuka Spinners
5 Parts, 2005
Sets: BIONICLE: Supplemental
 
Set No: 6620  Name: Ultimate Accessory Set 500
* 
6620-1 (Inv) Ultimate Accessory Set 500
507 Parts, 2006
Sets: BIONICLE: Supplemental

While I'm on the topic, does anyone know if the Spinners in set 8749-1 were
all of one color (I am referring only to the 4 Marbled Spinners without code)?
A standard mix of colors? or Completely random assortment of color?

So, what is the official policy for pieces with official Lego part numbers that
also have Bricklink numbers?

Such as:

bricklink: 98138pb023
Tile, Round 1 x 1 with Black Number 5 Coin Pattern

Lego: 17968
FLAT TILE 1X1, ROUND "NO.24"

Obviously the Lego description needs some work, but I would prefer to see the
Lego number when it is known. It facilitates checking shop.lego.com for new bricks.

Hi all!

We are searching for the minifigure in the subject
Please, the next who submit a new SH minifigure use this code because in the
set 76147, that have three minifigures (sh617, sh618 and sh546), there aren't
no more new minifigures and that code had been skipped.

Many thanks!

Van. Due to Bricklink catalog the weight of this booklet is 55 grams, but it
should be 3 grams.

Thank you.

Hi,
I would like to DELETE all items in my inventory and later upload them with the
correct quantities.
How should I do it?
Thank you

set 40166 has a new counterpart in the minifig,

the darktan hair is different in about half of the sets i parted,

new partnumber that has to be added is, 25972 instead of 62810


tried changing it in the inventory (no luck since its a minifig entry) so cannot
use the inventory id of the part.

tried the minifig, but that can't have alternate parts,


why does this have to be so hard?
trying to add to the catalog seems to be a 1 time thing for me now, since it's
already taking me 30 minutes to do this, and nothing has happened,

At long last, it is time. By the end of March, my goal is to eliminate duplicate
catalog entries for sticker sheets:

https://www.bricklink.com/catalogRelList.asp?relID=15

You can see that this has been moved from Section 11.1 to 11.2 on the roadmap:

https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=2476

I have some ideas, but I'd like to hear yours - especially those of you who've
given this some thought over the past decade or so that some of us have wanted
it.

Sticker sheets are handled quite consistently at the present moment. How can
we retain that consistency while eliminating duplicate entries with the least
amount of disruption?

As a side note, how do you feel about the NA/International duplicate entries?
These are the same sticker sheets, but have different item numbers, differently-sized
paper backing, and in some cases a slightly different finish (matte vs. glossy).
I don't want to get too distracted with this particular side discussion,
but do we need to maintain separate catalog entries for these sheets? Do you
want us to?

Looking forward to hearing some discussion and seeing some ideas other than my
own to get these duplicate entries handled.

Hello, I was looking at the Special Assembly category

https://www.bricklink.com/catalogList.asp?catType=P&catString=961

And I was wondering how do you make one for the catalog?

I wanted to make a few for some different assemblies, like the Minecraft Iron
Golem figure.

Why is 10507 listed as 1x1 in studs?

10507 is
x: 7.9mm
y: 11.2mm
z: 11.1mm

making it 1 x 1.4 in studs.

Is this just another one of those places of inconsistency madness?

The other day I was searching the catalog.
I typed in "Saber-Tooth" and only the following two minifigs came up.

 
Minifig No: loc125  Name: Saber-Tooth Tiger Warrior 1
* 
loc125 (Inv) Saber-Tooth Tiger Warrior 1
Minifigures: LEGENDS OF CHIMA
 
Minifig No: loc126  Name: Saber-Tooth Tiger Warrior 2
* 
loc126 (Inv) Saber-Tooth Tiger Warrior 2
Minifigures: LEGENDS OF CHIMA

I was looking for

 
Part No: bb0787c03pb01  Name: Cat, Large (Saber-Toothed Tiger) with Light Yellow Eyes, Long Teeth and Reddish Brown Stripes Pattern
* 
bb0787c03pb01 Cat, Large (Saber-Toothed Tiger) with Light Yellow Eyes, Long Teeth and Reddish Brown Stripes Pattern
Parts: Animal, Land

which I found by going to animal, land and typing "cat, " then scrolling.

Should all be Tooth or all be Toothed ?

Or maybe just left alone, and I use better search practices like "saber-t*"
or just "tiger"

I know, there'll be pain with the renaming and whatnot, but it would be nice
if all the axle holes on all the pieces were named consistently and were referred
to in a consistent manner in the item number.

Then there's the issue of sometimes two things that are the similar have
two different catalog numbers and other times two things that are similar have
a single number and a note. So the whole handling of naming and suffixing is
kind of all over the place.

If that page isn't clear, hit me up.

Going thru some unsorted parts and I found the 32553 in dark bluish gray with
the 32554 in trans dark blue that was missing from the catalog. I have uploaded
the picture as a counterpart (32553c06) to set 8610-1.

I recently submitted a name change, it was rejected, no problem, but the name
needed to be changed and it was, but I don't see any record in the logs regarding
this very recent name change that added 'and 4 Wear Marks'?

I believe this part came with the set but do not want to make a catalog request

If someone else owns this set, can they check if their set contains this part

came factory glued like other wheel assemblies have?

I bought 10+ pcs of 3846pb31 Minifigure, Shield Triangular with Black and Silver
Falcon Pattern from 2 different sellers. Seller1 has LEGO markings at the back
of all his shields, while Seller2's shields have none.

I checked it and it came from 1 set only. Question is, why some have LEGO markings
while others have none? Are those legit LEGO?

There is still something I do not understand about custom items and LEGO/BL rules.

Modified Parts: All parts listed in your store must be genuine LEGO parts
in their original, unmodified condition. Custom printed, engraved, chromed, or
painted parts are not permitted.

Non LEGO Items: Certain non LEGO items that are deemed by BrickLink to be part
of LEGO fan culture may be listed. These include literature about LEGO products,
LEGO memorabilia, and items used to make custom sets (e.g. stickers, instructions,
and boxes).


As I read the rules, a custom printed (or painted) minifigure with genuine LEGO
parts is banned. However, the exact same design can be printed onto a sticker
and would then be allowed if it is used to create a custom set. This set could
be a minifigure - so minimally a head, torso assembly and legs. So custom printed
minifigures are banned if the print is direct on the minifigure, but minifigures
with custom prints attached to them via stickers are allowed.

Is this a correct view of LEGO's new rules?

Custom stickers would obviously be non-LEGO, but how does anyone know if a new
design they create will be deemed by someone that works at Bricklink to be part
of LEGO fan culture (whatever that means).

For example, I have a load of Brickforge custom sticker decals for torsos. They
have existed for years - are they part of fan culture? What if I create a new
torso sticker design, is that part of fan culture because stickers have been
used to decorate torsos (both officially and unofficially) in the past, or not
part of fan culture as the new design has no history and is not part of fan culture.

I have a question for English speaking people:

What is the difference between:
 
Part No: 42367  Name: Duplo, Train Intelli-Train Engine Base Battery Case Lid (Fits 6172)
* 
42367 Duplo, Train Intelli-Train Engine Base Battery Case Lid (Fits 6172)
Parts: DUPLO, Train
 
Part No: 32290  Name: Electric, Motor 4.5V 17 x 6 x 5 Battery Cover
* 
32290 Electric, Motor 4.5V 17 x 6 x 5 Battery Cover
Parts: Electric, Motor

I mean between: "battery cover" and "battery case lid"
Can't be both named "battery cover" ?

PS: some parts are named "battery box cover" other "battery case cover"
I think we should delete "case" and "box"

I am just finishing the inventory for the new space station, 21321.

I have submitted a new part for an 8x3 flag with rod under 35252pb01. I did
this following the number for the previous decorated flag in the catalog, 35252pb01.

When i was confirming the inventory, i noticed that the white flag under 30292
(7x3 flag with rod) was the same size as the 8x3 flag with rod. I believe that
the 35252pb01 listing is wrong and should be a 30292pb number as should the one
i added.

Are they different parts or is just a catalog error that i followed?

Cheers
Douglas

Is there any way to edit the way the Catalog is displayed? There are some types
of Lego that I'm not interested in and they just clutter up the Catalog tree.
For instance, 19 Duplo and 7 Mini Doll categories that I'll never bother
looking at. (I'm okay with Fabuland!)

How difficult is it to disassemble these two parts once they're attached
together? Do you need tools or do they come apart relatively easily?

Hello, I'm sure the part exists but can't find it in the modified bricks.

I'm looking for the reverse of #2458 (1x2 with pin) a 1x2 brick with a hole
instead of a pin.

Forgive me if this is in the wrong place, but I have no idea how this works.
I have a stickered piece from this set:

https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?S=70909

That does not seem to exist in the catalog. How do I go about adding it or telling
someone to add it? Thanks!

Hello, I have two different versions of the slope 3297, some smooth and some
with a rough surface. Is there a single entry for both?

It would be good for consistency in the catalog description if all instances
of numbers were either integers or words, not arbitrarily some of each.

So:

Three eyeballs, Three earlobes

or

3 eyeballs, 3 earlobes

not

Three eyeballs, 3 earlobes

...that kind of thing.

There are pros and cons for each option. Please investigate how the search mechanism
works to see which option yields better results.

I have come across a few tiles with stickers that are not in the catalog.
, nor in their set inventory.

How do I go about determining the Sticker # when Adding to the catalog.

For example one is a 87079pb###, how do I determine the last few digits?

We are finally making serious headway with the catalog backlog. The catalog
change requests queue is cleared out.

In the spirit of trying to ensure that the Catalog Roadmap is not just something
to look at, I am continuing with the goal of moving through one project each
month. We have essentially had a January project (flesh to nougat) and there
is a new project starting today for February:

https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=2476

What is this project?

This project involves accurately describing the differences between early (old)
versions of an item and later (new) versions. We need this for two reasons:

1. Using the words "old" and "new" were easy ways to avoid having to describe
actual differences between items. Set numbers in minifigure titles performed
the same function, which is why they were removed.

2. When a third version of an item appears, the old/new descriptors are useless.
Similar items should be described by their differences (usually the way in which
the later version is different from the earlier version).

There are around 500-1000 items expected to be affected by this project.

How can members contribute?

For the immediate moment, members may contribute by submitting title change requests.
I'm not sure how we're going to do item numbers yet, so hold off on
those. If you're not confident that you know exactly what this project entails
or need clarification on a specific issue, then please ask before submitting
a request.

For the immediate moment, ignore the additional topic bundled with this project
(looking at the use of with/without in titles). We may be able to include that,
or it may need to be made its own project. This project should also look at
the use of early/later descriptors since they serve the same function as the
terms old/new.

The goal is to wrap this up by the end of February. Of course, we also have
catalog work still to do and that takes precedence over projects - so this may
run over schedule.

Found some frosted trans-light-blue 1x4 bars in a set recently and I'm not
comfortable mixing them with my current inventory. They are quite different and
I don't think a customer who orders several would be happy getting a mixture.

 
Part No: 30374  Name: Bar   4L (Lightsaber Blade / Wand)
* 
30374 Bar 4L (Lightsaber Blade / Wand)
Parts: Bar

The additional notes state:

"Alternate item number 28697 is used for transparent colors. This mold variant
has no bubbles and number 28697 molded on it. It has been found in two variations
clear and frosted as showed on additional images."

So it seems the catalog admins are aware of the difference and have decided not
to reflect it in the catalog here? Personally I think this is a mold variation
worth recognizing.

The old dragster set has a white correction sheet for step 16. It has a part
number on the page that doesn't show up in searches (120356).

Am I missing the entry somewhere? If not, should an entry exist? Or a note with
the instructions entry? (I could have sworn I had seen a note about this previously...)

Thanks!!

I have a batch of incomplete minifigures. I need help identifying them to find
out what parts I need to complete them. I seem to remember there were a couple
of sites which had this information but I can't remember the names.

Can anyone help please?

Interesting, more than ten years and almost nobody noticed it.

(OK I understand we can see them only from the front as they never retreat when
they attack so you can't see their back )

Interesting in our catalog torso is showed without long line.

Parts: Minifigure, Torso Assembly, Decor.

According to the information which I found here
http://minifigs.nl/swminifigs/mfnl-shadow-ms.html
one with long line could be from magnet set from 2009.

so from sets which were issued earlier 2007 and 2008 could be one with short
line
My with short line is from set
 
Set No: 7667  Name: Imperial Dropship
* 
7667-1 (Inv) Imperial Dropship
65 Parts, 4 Minifigures, 2008
Sets: Star Wars: Star Wars Legends

I have also two in my collection with long line but bought them years ago loose
without sets.

I submitted both as new as in this case sw0166 should be marked for deletion
as we don't know which one is currently sell under this entry.

When adding photos to the catalogue, can you only add 1 at a time for the same
part?

I just added 2 photos of a new part that i added to the catalogue, one a rendered
photo and the other showing the part from 2 angles. Now it only shows the second
photo i added and the other has disappeared.

Cheers

Hello everyone,

Today I am very pleased to announce we have a new Catalog Associate! As you may
see from the Hall of Fame, StormChaser has previously held two catalog-type admin
positions - Inventories Admin and the legacy Catalog Admin - and has recently
returned to the site.

We're delighted he has decided to come back, and I know many of you missed
him as well. He has many ambitious plans for the catalog, and now that we have
more staff on board, it's looking as though we can start making some serious
headway.

So please join me in welcoming him. You can see his familiar profile in line
with the others here:

https://www.bricklink.com/memberAdmins.asp

StormChaser is also the first member to officially join our new Community Expert
Program. We hope to see the other catalog admins joining in the next day or two,
and the rest of our admins within the week.

Hi

For now as we have more changes in discussion, can't we put the colours back
to how they were. I'm sure a few more days/weeks of flesh isn't going
to hurt us.

Then discuss with the Lego Company regarding changing all colours to their colours
- we are part of their group. What they say will be correct !!

I had a crazy week last week and didn't get a chance to manually pull my
Brickarms inventory before Lego kicked it off the site. I was hoping it would
be somewhere that I can still see what I had in my inventory. Does anyone know
if this is possible? Otherwise, I have absolutely no way to find them in my shelves
without access to the old listing details. Am I just going to have to stumble
across them over time as I pull other orders and see them? I was hoping they
would go into stockroom with no option to relist or something like that, not
just completely disappear. I should have screenshotted it so I had a record of
my previous inventory and its location, but didn't get a chance to between
when I saw the notice and when they pulled the listings.

in your list of item for the 1880 set, you mention 3 of the green plant flower
stem (3741), but to complete the set you need 4.
Also, you listed 4 green window 1X2X3 shutter, which is the case, but on the
original list of pieces, there is 8 listed, I don't know why.

have a nice day

I can't help myself from returning to this topic.

It is not right to erase people who have contributed to the catalog and turn
them into a meaningless number (and a username that rhymes with "loser.").

The first attached image shows people who have contributed a set inventory to
the catalog. For each person it was only one inventory, but it was time they
took out of their day or week to make a contribution.

The second image shows people who have added items to the catalog. One person
added 113 items. Another added 97 items. Yet another added 87 items. And so
on down the list.

Some of these unregistered users are no doubt dead. Some have moved on to new
pursuits. Some may be in a coma or in prison. Who knows why any one person
hasn't logged on or may never log on again?

BrickLink wants contributions. BrickLink wants an involved community. But when
BrickLink treats former contributors so dismissively, by erasing them into meaninglessness,
it makes me think they have no respect for contributors.

BrickLink contributors deserve better treatment than this. Anonymizing people
who have contributed to the catalog was a poor decision. It was a careless and
heartless decision.

I urge the site to reconsider the decision to anonymize any former catalog and
inventory contributors.

I feel like Bill in that I find myself making observations and then posting them
in the forum whilst saying, "Hmmmm." This is my Bill moment.

I just searched for the Where Are My Pants person from The LEGO Movie. The system
excluded 75% of my keywords. So . . . what's the point of titling this character
this way if 75% of the title is useless?

Wouldn't it be better to simply title him "Pants Guy" and leave it at that?

What are the differences in these parts? The images seem to me to show exactly
the same parts in different colours.

Am I missing something or are the images for the second part wrong?
