| | Hi,
You are missing two sets on the Catalog: Sets: Star Wars: Ultimate Collector
Series
Set: 10188-1 Star Wars Ultimate Collector Series from 2008 year
Set: 10236-1 Star Wars Ultimate Collector Series from 2013 year
It will be nice to see all of the Star Wars USC sets.
Kind regards,

They do not belong to UCS series as they are not marked as such on the boxes.
btw here you have message from LEGO which this person recived when asked about
it.
https://lego.fandom.com/wiki/Thread:288611
Both sets are cosider playsets.
The same situation is with 75222-1

That's a strange response from Lego, especially as the 75159 Deathstar IS
a UCS set, despite being nigh-on identical to 10188. 75159 is UCS even without
the plaque...
Damned Lego inconsistencies!!!

Even better they created "Master Builder Series" specially fo sets like 75222.
Didn't heard about any more sets in this series anymore 
Sentence from linked article
"In fact, browsing through the Ultimate Collector Series in the Brickset database
reveals that LEGO has been somewhat careless with the UCS branding throughout
its history. "

For those that don't know, Bret (starbeanie) is what I consider our resident
expert on Lego stickers. He long ago started specializing at it (don't know
if you still do, Bret) But I couldn't find this item either and thought about
asking you. Glad you showed-up here to answer both the OP's my curiosities.
-Thanks

| | Hi,
I found an item that is missing from the catalog. I attached the image of it.
It is a dark blue 47753 with a sticker on it. The sticker is from the set: 70730
https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=70730stk01&
I checked the instructions for the part and the sticker is applied as needed.
I have a few questions:
- What is the best name to give to the part?
- How to find what is the part number to use? 47753pb???
Thanks,
Tamas

The LEGO wheels are most likely made from styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR). To
process SBR, plasticizers are usually added to it to help with the flow of the
material into the molds (they literally make the SBR more plastic). These plasticizers
usually include some type of mineral oil derived from petroleum and some type
of ester (a type of chemical compound). Over time, these plasticizers can leach
out of the SBR under certain storage conditions. You are most likely seeing and
feeling mostly the mineral oil, but I would absolutely think that the ester is
also leaching out with the mineral oil. Why? Because esters can dissolve ABS.

Great to know, thank you Randy
Visually, they absolutely look like they are covered in mineral oil. These were
not commingled (they were in a set box/clean) so they are not covered in dirt,
the others I encounter were covered in *stuff*
I've run into various amounts of the tacky feel, so I would imagine that
is the second compound coming out in various amounts.
