  I would like to provide a Catalog dimension for
 
Part No: 30391  Name: Tire 30.4 x 14 Offset Tread

30391 Tire 30.4 x 14 Offset Tread
Parts: Wheel, Tire & Tread

Plus the various part assemblies that include that tire. The change page suggests
that the numbers are in studs. Is this correct, or should I be entering in cm
?

According to my caliper the tire really does measure 30 x 30 x 14 mm.

When entering the dimensions for the assemblies, do I do that with the wheel
inserted in the tire, or with them side by side ? example
 
Part No: 30285c01  Name: Wheel 18mm D. x 14mm with Black Tire 30.4 x 14 (30285 / 30391)

Parts: Wheel & Tire Assembly

It sounds like you are measuring the packaging dimensions for the part. In that
case, you would post them to the Packaging Dimensions forum topic in centimeters.

The dimensions entry on the catalog change request form is to be used for adding
stud dimensions for width and length and brick dimensions for height to standard
parts that can be easily measured in those terms (such as bricks and plates).

  I have this poster that i received with the VIP program from Lego when i purchased
the new Ghostbustern ECTO-1.

I wasn't sure where it goes in the catalogue. I looked in Gearosters for
it. I wasn't sure if that is where it goes?

If yes, i am happy to add to the catalogue if it is not already there.

Thanks

I don't see it in the catalog either. I would add it as: Gear, Poster. Check
to see if it has a 7 digit number code on it to use as the item number.

Couldn't it be test print only?

I have one in my collection and have been confused for years. I have been searching
for information about it but have found none. I originally thought it was a
head to another minifigure completely but it pops up on bricklink under jek.
You have to piece him out and look up just his head but the white variant is
present.

Does anyone know any information on this head or where it came from?

Everything on that page is tentative at this point. But I can confirm that all
the ones that currently are marked APPROVED will approved April 1. The other
ones are still under review.

Thank you for the reply, Russell. Who does the reviewing? Would it be possible
to put a small paragraph or two briefly describing the review process on that
page so we can be a little more informed as to what exactly happens?

Dear Russell,

Thanks for this info. But can you elaborate on this review process? Who is doing
the review, why, and what kind of criteria are taken into consideration?

I think this kind of information would really help us understand and hence be
more understanding about the delays or the way things are done.

Best regards,

Hans-Peter

If that is the case, could you change it to say "UNDER REVIEW" rather than "NOT
APPROVED" then? There is a big divide between those two sets of words.
