I notice that there are now a number of things like this in the catalogue under
GEAR:

[g=ST1]

[g=superman]

What are these meant to be?

Looking at Castle Byers, some people are usnig the listing to sell the set, some
the stickers, some sets with custom stickers, another the set with custom prints,
etc. No-one is actually selling just the instructions!

Is the intention that these should really just be the instructions given that
they come under a category called "Building Event Instructions"?

If so, why are they not listed like normal instructions? Is it because BL does
not recognise these as sets, and properly listed instructions must have sets
to go in?

I remember trying to add the Superman set long ago, and it was denied. But now
it seems the instructions do exist in BL's view, but the sets do not exist.

The strange thing is, when I got my Superman, they were using laser copy / printed
instruction sheets and you could get the PDF if you wanted it, but they did not
have "genuine" instruction sheets.

So I added to sets packed in blisters "blister pack" similarly to above, now

If you find any more such sets please submit change request to add "blister

The original Ninjago Spinner sets had similar packaging:

we have "foil pack"

So I added to sets packed in blisters "blister pack" similarly to above, now
they will be easier to find

They are meant to be rebuilt every day, not like the city/star wars calendards,
and were not on sale, but as a bonus on purchase
