| If it's feasible, it'd be nice to be able to organize your want lists
into custom categories. For example, I'd like to be able to have categories
for MOCs, Restoration, and so on. That way I could quickly find lists without
having to change the order or toggle categories to hide them what I don't
immediately need.

| I have no idea if this is something that is doable... (I mean, on this site,
I am sure it CAN be done) but a lot of people who buy large collections often
are faced with an issue of finding a partially built set they cannot identify.
To that end, it would be amazing if there was a search available where you could
pick say, 10 or more pieces (would likely pick the least common pieces you
see on it) and enter those and have the results display only the sets that contain
all of those pieces.
Right now, I am sitting on a large number of partial sets and while some are
much easier than others to identify, others are just impossible.
This would be a massive help!

| Personally I don’t think we should lose the term minifigure because it’s very
key to how we and Lego describe the majority of their figures and at the moment
there are talks about Minfigs category being changed to ‘Figure’ and possibly
including everything from Lotso Bear to Baby Groot
I did discuss a solution here:-
https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1192727
but I think it may have become a bit lost in the rest of the debate but I would
be interested in others thoughts on this or whether the term minifigure is even
still important or what minifigure should refer to going forward?
Here is my original suggestion:-
“On the subject of categorizing figures in general I think breaking down some
of this stuff might make more sense than renaming Minifigs to Figures and then
piling everything into the same place.
It’s a difficult one but I guess you have to start with defining a minifigure
and at the moment I can only think of two ways of doing this where by you define
it by Size after all a clue is in the word MINIfigure which does unfortunately
leave a lot of ambiguity or better still you define minifig by the fact it usesa
Torso Assembly?
Torso Assembly may be a good clear cut way of defining a minifig because almost
all traditional minifigs from a Dementor to a Lord Garmadon use the all-important
standard Torso design that holds a minifig together and its probably the one
key part that really defines what a minifigure looks like when we think of a
minifigure and with that in mind you could categorise as Follows:-
Minifigure – Anything that uses the Standard Torso Assembly design
Modified Figure – Anything from droids, to brick built Droids, to Skeletons and
stuff like Gollum, Slimer, Unikitty, Scurrier, Scooby etc..
Microfigure – Anything very small consisting of a single or maximum of two parts
such as Baby, Baby Yoda, Palpatine Hologram, Baby Groot, Trophy figures and all
those game figures etc..
You are then left with things like Cave Troll, Big Hulk etc. which can either
go under ‘Modified Figure’ or a separate ‘Large Figure’ Category?
Likewise are animals/creatures separated so that Polar bears, Wargs and Horses
go under ‘Modified Figure’ and stuff like baby dinos, spiders and snakes under
‘Microfigure’ or do they have their own ‘Animal category’?
Lots to think about....”

| I'm trying to replace a large number of missing parts from a single set.
I think it would be helpful if - from the set list - I could select multiple
pieces and add to my wanted for ordering. If there is a way - I must be overlooking
it

| The last couple of weeks we've seen an increasing number of forum posts from
new members with questions about how to use Stud.io.
@Bricklink: Please take some effort to make it more clear that when working in
Stud.io, there's a special forum dedicated to those questions so we won't
have to deal with it here.
I know SilvainS is happy to respond to the questions but the BL forum is not
really the place for it.
Thanks.
