  Hi,

Looks like this parts:
 
Part No: 4460a  Name: Slope 75 2 x 1 x 3 - Open Stud
* 
4460a Slope 75 2 x 1 x 3 - Open Stud
Parts: Slope
 
Part No: 4460b  Name: Slope 75 2 x 1 x 3 - Hollow Stud
* 
4460b Slope 75 2 x 1 x 3 - Hollow Stud
Parts: Slope

is taller than described as it is 4 studs high instead of 3 unless there is a
way to measure height I don't know.

Fortunately, there is no 3 studs high slope and I believe any MOCers using the
part just call it by its name and there would be no issue when building.

Strangely, part
 
Part No: 3684c  Name: Slope 75 2 x 2 x 3 - Solid Studs
* 
3684c Slope 75 2 x 2 x 3 - Solid Studs
Parts: Slope
and all its variants looks like to be also 4 studs
high and not 3 (last pic clearly shows the same aspect ratio as 4460).
By the way 3684 is not marked for deletion yet.

Where was the issue ? "It's not you it's us" or just me ?

Thanks.

Length and width are measured in studs, but height is measured in brick heights.
These slopes have the same height as 3 bricks stacked on top of each other.

And that is why exactly many submitters make that mistake when submitting measurements
of part to the catalog.

  Hi All,

I'm building a database in MS Access where I want to compare my sets with
a different set to see if I can build the different set with the parts I have.

What I like to know is, is there a downloadable table with related items, so
if I don't have the original inventory item the DB will search the alternative
items to see if there is a match and give me the quantity of the alternate item?

Or is there an other way to relate the alternate item to the original inventory
item?

Thanx

Thanx all for the quick replies.
I found a downloadable table on rebrickable. For me that is the most useful solution
for my problem.

Generally similar parts can be found on
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogRelList.asp?v=0&pg=1&relID=4
Not easily downloadable, but copy-paste should work.

Then there is:
https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=2488
and similar information can be found through:
https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?topicID=21

If you only want to know about alternates that are registered within a set, you
will have to look at the inventory of that set through:
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogInv.asp
or download through:
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogDownload.asp


Good luck with it.

Try sildenafil. Might help.

Wonder how many googled sildenafil. Now I get it... I Think

Same here using Chrome Windows 10. Checked it at the work computer with Firefox
and same... No large images on click. I really hope they fix it soon. Really
slow looking up minifig torsos or the figs themselves.

I get no large (pop up) images on Windows 7 with IE11. The thumbnail images are
no longer live links.

I have the same bug. It is not just you. Windows 7: Firefox, Chrome, etc. Logged

Mozilla Firefox on the laptop, Google Chrome on the other laptop, and I believe
Opera Browser on the computer. This is very very weird.

Huh, that's odd... I thought it might be my laptop at first but I tried three
other devices and they all have the same problem. The clicker doesn't change
shape when over the picture and clicking does absolutely nothing.

Please submit this information using the appropriate form:

I used the link to enter the size and weight of a new set,
but how does one add an entirely new item? In this case,
the VIP exclusive reversible tote bag # 5005910 ?

Part No: 973pb3600c01  Name: Torso T-Shirt with Red Trim and 'CHAMPS' Logo Pattern (BAM) / Red Arms / Yellow Hand Right / Reddish Brown Baseball Glove Left
* 
973pb3600c01 (Inv) Torso T-Shirt with Red Trim and 'CHAMPS' Logo Pattern (BAM) / Red Arms / Yellow Hand Right / Reddish Brown Baseball Glove Left
Parts: Minifigure, Torso Assembly, Decor.

Has anyone actually seen this part in a BAM box with the mitt attached? I have
seen multiple of them in three different stores now, and they do not have the
mitt. They have a single hand and a missing hand. You can add either a mitt or
a hand, staff don't care.

So should this be listed with a mitt, given that this is not how it is supplied?
Or at least have a note about this, as not all the torsos will have mitts.

Does anyone know for certain which colour the set actually shipped with?
