Whoot! Can I resubmit my pickable models from 2012 or are you just going to change
the instruction entries to sets?

Agreed - and I definitely don't want to miss the opportunity to catalog them
still attached like this - as I'll wager there's not many of these left
still intact like this (aside from the few and far between sealed sets for this
set).
This definitely ranks at the top for one of the rarest discoveries I've had
in a used pile. That and a 10123 set with all the factory bags still sealed

see a catalog entry for the sails still being attached. I'd be happy to
submit them as an entry if they are quantifiable. I'd plan to straighten
them before posting a pic - They're still a tad bit wrinkly from taking a

They should not be in the catalog. I faced some pushback when suggesting they
be removed, though. The only reason given was "historical reasons."

What pushback? These should obviously not be in the catalog.

This part has 1 known colour listed: white. But the only picture is of this part
in red. This torso is found in one part, that part is also listed as white.
Could an additional known colour of red be added? The Torso assembly would be
red torso, red arms, red hands.

Imo we shouldnt, because this is actually a misplaced sticker so its more or
less a custom item. If you gonna add that to the catalog, you would have to
add every misplaced sticker, and since you can place stickers everywhere there
will be no end...
The part you mention is sold by one store, and thats his picture too I believe.
btw There is a picture of the white version, but its the torso assembly

It's true though we have similar looking undersides like this with sharp
edges around the hole and more curved ones.
I have the suspision they cut smaller baseplates from bigger ones. at least I
have seen plenty of edges that look cut. But this might be a custom job from
the people we bought it from.

They are cut of a larger in factory, cut to the size that was needed.
That is why older baseplates may have the whiter looking stressmarks.
I always mention this in my description so buyers know what they buy.

You're welcome to submit a request stating exactly what needs to be changed.

I can't do this. IMHO, a decision about the future road of these two parts
(and any new parts needed to be made) must be made by admin, and I expect them
to make the necessary changes to the catalog. I have seen no traces of any final
decision made yet.

I'll make a request to have the notes changed, but splitting/new parts and
inventories I leave to others.

Here I would suggest inventory change requests where appropriate.

As your first post was about PartDesigner, I’m guessing you’re asking for this
part to be added to Studio.
