Ah. So...I could just use the plain 553 entry to add that part in Set 22011 to

Hoping that this is the case.

Yes. 👍

| | During parting out and adding to my inventory this set:
I noticed that 553b (aka Brick, Round 2 x 2 Dome Top, C = Magenta or 71) is without
either catalog entry or image. I was about to submit a Cat Change Request and
then I remembered the ongoing headaches regarding the Variant Project as detailed
in this message:
https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1451828
So, is the image and entry merely and temporarily 'down' due to Variant
Project implementation? Or is 553b entry actually gone-gone and a CCR needs
to be completed in order to make 553b part of 553? Note that there are currently
only two catalog entries for Brick, Round 2 x 2 Dome Top. One is while
553a is listed as "without Bottom Axle Holder".
FWIW, the 553 in Set 11022 has a blocked open stud.
I'm uncertain what action to take, or if I even should.

The inventory is correct as is since 553b is gone, gone as of April 12:

| | So, Catalog admins, will this get updated?
|
Yes.
| | At the moment you have 18938 and 88738 as alternate numbers for the same part,
and 48168 as a mold variant. How anyone could have entered a 60 tooth gear as
mold variant of a 56 tooth gear is a question for another day...
From what I can see the mold variant link should be removed - Z56 and Z60 are
different.
The alternate number link should also be removed, and the descriptions of the
part should be updated to reflect the bevel teeth on one of them.
Or does all this fall in your recent program of dumbing down the database...

That had nothing to do with the catalog administrators.

As you can see in the item pic the hollow stud variant can be see for both parts. Also if you look at a different image from brick set you can also the the hollow stud. Unfortunately there are no videos that I could find on this set.

That isn't how it works. That is the undetermined entry and has the picture
that it had when we realized it needed to be split. That picture is almost certainly
not from one of the foil packs.
I have the foil packs in a shopping cart and I am waiting for my sales tax waiver

So, does that mean you are going to fix it?

Now I don't understand why they'd fix an obsolete entry to be deleted.
Again: "This catalog entry is obsolete and will be marked for deletion
once it is removed from all inventories."
Also, I'm sure there are more actual valid entries to fix if they've
got some time

There is nothing to fix for
The two current set inventories containing it need to be checked to see if they
should actually have

Once those two set inventories are checked and dp095 is removed from them in
favor of dp095a or dp095b, then dp095 will be marked for deletion.

| | I sold what I had listed as 825068 LED Key Light Darth Vader Key Chain (LEDLITE)
- Boxed Version today but the ones I have are actually a tagged version LGL-KE7T.
The tagged version in the catalogue is LGL-KE7H. I'm waiting to hear back
from the buyer to see if they still want it.
The catalogue says the tagged version was released in 2020 but I've had mine
since 2011. Does anyone know of a name change and if "boxed version"
was added to the name at some point? I listed them too long ago to remember what
the name of the item was at the time.
|
had its name changed from "Mini Torch Minifig Flashlight Key Chain Darth
Vader" to "LED Key Light Darth Vader Key Chain (LEDLITE) - Boxed Version"
in 2013, and the images of the boxes were added after the original entry. Therefore,
it is highly possible that this entry was originally for the tagged version of
the key chain from 2011 that you have and then later inappropriately redefined
to be the boxed version. When the updated tagged version came along in 2020,
it only made sense to add it as the tagged version then because the other one
had stated "Boxed Version" for so long.
I think you did the right thing by reaching out to the buyer.

If that part ever appeared in a set, then it would need to be added to the set
to get known color information to show up.
However, I think it is just the print from

I watched multiple unboxing and build videos of the set and compared them all
to the current inventory which was also compiled from a sealed set. All of them
only showed two extra treads. Since most people part out sets blindly with the

It is correct that there are four red 1x2x2 bricks in the set and that two of
them use stickers. However, since the four red 1x2x2 bricks in the set can be
either of two variants (3245b or 3245c), then the two of them that use stickers
can be either of two variants (3245b or 3245c). The Counterparts area shows that
both variants of the bricks with stickers can be found in any given used set.

Wouldn't the two 3245cpb187 stickered bricks go in the alternate section?
Thats where they put the 4 3245c bricks. I accidently said "delete" but
meant "moved to alternate". Sorry for the confusion.
|
Counterparts never go in the Alternate Items section. The Counterparts section
does not always have a one-to-one correspondence to parts in the Regular Items
section. It is basically a dumping ground for catalog items that may be found
in any used example of the set.

| Please make changes to the following inventory:
* Change 1 Part Black 48002a Boat, Mast 2 x 2 x 20 with Holes and Axle Hole (x Shape / + Orientation) {Alternate to Regular}
* Change 1 Part Black 48002b Boat, Mast 2 x 2 x 20 with Holes and Axle Hole (x Shape / x Orientation) {Regular to Alternate}
Comments from Submitter:
This set cannot be built with 48002b. It must have the '+' orientation, so I am moving 48002a to the Regular Items section. The inclusion of 48002b in the inventory is most likely an error.

Since these requests were already accepted by someone else, the inventory will

I want to enter this part Window 1 x 4 x 5 with Hollow Studs Item No: 2493b

It most likely comes from one or more of the following sets:

When someone can prove definitively that any of those sets came with the hollow-stud

These days, almost everything gets a very descriptive name, but that was not
always the case. Having said that, everyone is free to submit name change requests
on anything that they find lacking in description, and that has always been the
case.

All paper items in the catalog should be set to Volume Bound according to our
guidelines. Any new sticker sheets, cardboard items, etc. added to the catalog
get set to Volume Bound from the beginning, but ones that we come across in our
travels through the catalog that need to get updated get updated. To solve your
issue, you have a couple of choices. You can change them in your personal store

In this last batch of 100+ stickers whose package types were changed to Volume
Bound, many, if not most, of them, I had already set them manually to Weight
Bound in my store. Usually, as soon as I add them to my inventory.
Not something you have control over but I don't think these changes should
override my initial settings.

You are right. They definitely should not override your initial settings. If
they do, then that is another "feature" that should be addressed.

sticker sheets causing the issues to the catalog.

I'm not 100% confident with this one, for the images don't show all sides,
so there could be differences the images don't show. Like these are different
also (different on the BL images that is).
[g=LG11007]
I found images online though, which do look the same as the other 3. So the BrickLink
image could be a render from a catalog or website and not represent the actual
item.
And then those will be left to merge just because of black instead of white printing.
[g=N10746]
[g=LG11012]

You already merged the pocket photo albums that had different printing colors,
so I don't know what the difference would be here.

Although I appreciate it very much that you are looking into this, I would also
appreciate it if you would wait with more requests like these. We already know
that there are more items that can be merged for the same reason, but doing that
takes a lot of time.
The actual merge doesn't take much time.
But before we can merge we have to check if they are indeed 100% the same (except
for the color), then save all info and images of the items that are going to
be merged. All wanted lists and items for sale have to be updated.
And after the merge all this info and images have to be added manually.
So it's not just pressing a button
