Why is
moved to plate, modified
and
moved to plate, wedge?
I think the wedge base should be the defining characteristic.
There are other parts in the wedge, plate category that have modifications apart
from the wedge.

The entire assembly of this set, and all other buildable figures should be moved
into minifigures. These are characters built out of parts like Thomas the Tank
Engine, Cars, etc. As those examples are now minifigures, then surely so are
these characters.

Now these are minifigures:
Shouldn't these parts and similar
[p=52053]
be moved into a new category: Parts Duplo Minifigure Modified head
Or get rid of the minifigures category completely by renaming it, then have a
minifigures category inside that so that the word minifigures corresponds to
what LEGO and most LEGO fans call minifigures, figures assembled from minifigure
parts.

It should at least by 1 x 1 x 4 - then the height would be implicit. I don't

6L would mean 6 studs long (~48mm). I assume 6H would mean 6 bricks high? I don't

Yes, in this instance the standard procedure for newly-discovered variants of
all kinds can be followed:
1. Submit a comparison photo showing the differences.
2. Request an additional note. This can be done by including a message
to us with the photo submission or, if you'd prefer a more formal approach,
with a discussion forum catalog request.
3. Request that an item relationship be added for the part as an unsplit

The idea is to treat sets with storage cases consistently catalog-wide when the
items in a bundle are packaged separately. Some sets absolutely require separate
catalog entries because they were sold in different ways:
Therefore, for the sake of consistency, all sets should ideally be treated like
the above examples. Moving toward the catalog-wide consistency in this area
was something I began some years ago and never finished.

I think it would make sense to "merge" both entries so that there is only one
set entry which has the parts, the minifigure and the gear item in its inventory
like it is also done here
or here
Sellers can always add a note "without storage case" if the only have the box
with bricks for sale so I don't see any reason for a separate entry for
.
And calling a set "Basic Set with Storage Case" when it actually does NOT include
the storage case is definitely misleading.

| Sure, but I guess I don't understand why there are two sets. Now that I look,
I see it was done with a few other similar sets. It's confusing when you
have a set of instructions and you come across two sets that are in reality the
same set. It's not normal to have one set with two opportunities to list
the instructions. As always with these situations, it waters down the listing
value.
I guess there was no other solution. What about making the primary listing as
'gear' with the set as part of the 'gear'? I'm sure it's
been thought of, but it would eliminate extraneous listings of instructions and
boxes.

You are correct that 1944-1 technically should not have an instructions entry.
However, the instructions entry cannot be removed from the set entry due to

So is it done this way because sometimes 1944-2 was sold separately and not always
combined with the storage case? If so then the name seems very wrong. If not,
then why the sub-set method and not just a single set with gear?

| What I'm saying is 1944-1 is a superset that contains, 'gear' the
storage case and set 1944-2 which is the set with the actual parts. Therefore
1944-1 does not need an instruction entry, only 1944-2 which is the set with
the parts. Once this question is sorted out, I'm also inclined to think there
should only be one box, but I'm less sure of this point.

BrickLink did not differentiate between them.

We are currently struggling in our attempts to adopt written guidelines for the

I would better suggest Mini Bar as that it is more similar to a Bar but smaller
than a Lego Pin and mostly it works with minifigs. Or Thin Bar... But Mini/Thin
Pin is ok too as it is what most people are used to.

Studio's PartDesigner calls them 'Accessory Pin', see image.

named Bar and Bar with Hole etc.

Style 2 ones are the same size as bars. They fit any of flower stems, accessory
pins, axle holes, pin holes and clips. 'Accessory Antipins' could also
be an appropriate name in line of the antistuds at the bottom of plates.

I think this is why the newly formed hair category struggles to determine what
actually belongs under hair and what belongs under headgear because by directing
parts into either category based on how much hair is showing compared to how
big the head wear itself is only leaves a lot of ambiguity and uncertainty as
to where it belongs?
I think the best solution is as I’ve tried to explain further up the thread here:-
https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1249746
In short if the headgear includes more than just HAIR alone and ends up turning
a minifigure into a specific themed character, trade, profession or some kind
of unique non-human species I feel it should go under headgear rather than hair
Here is a good example. Someone is looking for some simple hair to use on a minifigure
but they haven’t yet decided on what design they want but they stumble upon this:-
It contains plenty of hair but do they don’t intend their minifigure to become
a construction worker?
Nor a King?
Nor an Elf?
Not even a Bat Monster? I mean why would they?
Nor a hat wearing character like Radagast?
and yes whilst this contains hair and seems quite generic they were looking in
the hair category and so did they actually ask for the hat to go with it?
For this reason all those examples I think would be better suited under headgear
Whereas whilst the below parts are designed specifically for characters such
as Saruman and Hagrid they are still just standalone hair and relevant to people
searching for hair within the hair category or at least that’s the way I see
it?
Am I honestly completely alone on this one?
|
Sure, I totally get that. I just think it is easy to remember regardless of where
it is put, and then since Hair is the smaller category it would keep things slightly
more browseable. But it's just my vote, of the majority wants to put it in
Headgear then let it be Headgear.
(And maybe there's a better solution to manage the size of the Headgear category...
|
Well if it was down to me I'd break headgear down into the following:-
Hair - Just Hair!
Headwear - Hats, Helmets, Ninja head wraps etc...
Headgear - All those unique combo parts be that Hat/Hair, Orc Ears/Hair, Bombur
Belly/Hair
but others don't like the idea of this for the reasons mentioned here...
https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1249730
Whilst it would be nice to keep all those together I feel its a small sacrifice
to pay if it means the rest of the catalog can be better organised in the process

Me too. I'd prefer anything with hair goes into the hair category.
I would not want pieces like this where there is moulding to indicate an accessory/non-hair
to be moved out of hair:
* | | 29639pb01 Minifigure, Hair Female Long with Parted Bangs, Partly Braided in Back with Yellow Elf Ears and Silver Flower Pattern
Parts: Minifigure, Hair |
* | | 28798pb01 Minifigure, Hair Female Pigtails High Bouncy, Hole on Top with Black Hair on Left Side and Black Tie on Right Side Pattern
Parts: Minifigure, Hair |
And in some cases, the accessory is the same colour as the hair:
Especially if parts like this, where there is just print and no moulding, remained
in hair:
* | | 85974pb04 Minifigure, Hair Female Mid-Length with Part over Right Shoulder and Medium Lavender Starfish and Lime Seaweed Pattern
Parts: Minifigure, Hair |
There are quite a few hairstyles where there is a plain coloured hairpiece, but
also with a version with coloured accessory such as:
They are surely still hair even though there is a non-hair accessory. It cannot
be down to how big the accessory is before something goes in hair or headgear,
as there will be contradictions.
And there are parts like this, that are not all hair but body part and not accessory:
Colour is problematic. Ideally it would be the colour of the hair as the part
colour, but there are pieces like the bald guy head above where the part is light
nougat and the hair painted on.
|
Yet with exception of the Orc, elf and liberty parts most of those you have mentioned
I would category as hair anyway? I don’t consider small generic details like
hair bands, flower prints as a reason for them not to be included in the hair
category as like I said only those that drastically change the character of a
minifigure into something very specific such as an elf, a king, a construction
worker or a hat wearing Radagast who I might add is more beard, facial hair and
hat than hair?
The character Harley Quinn again still comes with what is mainly hair likewise
the Alfred bald head is still adding hair to a minifigure so I still class these
as hair
You say there will be contradictions and yes there will always be a very few
parts that are hard to find the correct location for but without some kind of
guidelines to follow there will continue to be far more contradictions than what
we are already experiencing now because if we go by your stand point where any
visible hair should go under hair:-
* | | 17012pb01 Minifigure, Headgear Helmet Space Wraparound with Medium Nougat Hair on Top, Breathing Vents and Red Eye Holes Pattern (Star-Lord)
Parts: Minifigure, Headgear |
Is hair where I should expect to find items like this too?
I think there is also a clue in the category titles which should also help clear
up any confusion as I would have thought that....
hair category = differnt designs of hair? I would not expect to find hair with
hats on top of them or non-human species ears sticking out of them?
headgear category = quite a general term and so could consist of any number of
different combinations and so I would'nt find it all that contradicting to
find a mish mash of different parts under this category as headgear simply refers
to parts that are designed for attaching to heads?

It contains plenty of hair but do they don’t intend their minifigure to become
a construction worker?
Nor a King?
Nor an Elf?
Not even a Bat Monster? I mean why would they?
Nor a hat wearing character like Radagast?
and yes whilst this contains hair and seems quite generic they were looking in
the hair category and so did they actually ask for the hat to go with it?
For this reason all those examples I think would be better suited under headgear
Whereas whilst the below parts are designed specifically for characters such
as Saruman and Hagrid they are still just standalone hair and relevant to people
searching for hair within the hair category or at least that’s the way I see
it?
Am I honestly completely alone on this one?

And this outlines the second problem: Colour convention. This has to be made
consistent as well. I think I'd prefer the second one, as I'd say hair
colour is intuitively the more logical variable part than the headgear. Headgears
like cook's or police hats typically don't vary much in colour, so
the variation in the hair is more likely.
As for catagorisation, I'd prefer them in Minifig,Hair as it is less than
half the size of Headgear, but it's just my vote.

Split "Minifigure, Body Wear" into three distinct new categories: (1) "Minifigure,
Neckwear", (2) "Minifigure, Hipwear", and (3) "Minifigure, Footgear" to account
for the different sections of a standard figure that come between and outside
of the standard parts of a standard figure (head-to-torso, torso-to-legs, below
legs) that are currently not isolated as headgear is.
|
Sounds good and I guess if bodywear is to be replaced with the term neckwear
this does at least reflect on how the part is used which in turn represents all
the parts in the category better as I’ve always struggled with beards being filed
as bodywear?
That said going back to our previous discussion in the other thread I do still
think that just in the same way that hair and wearable items (hats/helmets) are
distinctly different from each other and benefit from separation in the headgear
categories beards/moustaches are also distinctly different to wearable items
and would therefore also benefit from separation in the neckwear category. Anyone
looking for beards should ideally not be stumbling across lots of wearable armour
and clothing and vice versa but hey just my opinion but at least we still share
some similar views for other aspects of the catalog!

I am not sure about that one.
My line of thinking that I proposed to the other admins was that the "Minifigure,
Body Wear" needs to be split into three distinct new categories: (1) "Minifigure,
Neckwear", (2) "Minifigure, Hipwear", and (3) "Minifigure, Footgear" to account
for the different sections of a standard figure that come between and outside
of the standard parts of a standard figure (head-to-torso, torso-to-legs, below

I will add this to the main "Category Changes, Part Two" discussion so that it
will most likely get enacted on April 1.

Currently in ‘Body Wear’ but should be in ‘Minifigure Utensil’ with other similar
items such as Surfboards/Skateboards/Ski’s
Also not sure this one belongs under ‘Body Wear’ either?
Or this under ‘Body Part’ instead of handheld weapons/accessories but I’ll leave
others to decide?

Just to also add....
Move to Minifig Utencil:-
[p= 2599c01]
Move to ‘Animal Body Part‘ or ‘Minifigure Body Part’?
Not sure where these belong but shouldn’t we keep Bodywear for only those parts
that slide over the neck of a torso?

Honestly, the first clue that a part is fake is almost always how it feels when
you pick it up. Looking for the logo and part numbers are usually step 2 so there
is no help there regarding seeing fakes online.
I would guess items on the auction site are fake by how cheap/plentiful they
are. Many Ninjago figures only appeared in one set and are rare. If Pythor didn't
cost upwards of $20, that was the warning sign. Also, there are tons of fake
copies of this guy and the other snakes available so I wouldn't buy unless
the listing specifically claimed it as authentic.

Yeah, I came across a few of these once. Most fakes are pretty easy to spot do
to cheaper printing/plastic and slightly different molds, but the ninjago ones
were almost identical to Lego (minus the logo).

Ask the direct question "Are these genuine LEGO?". If the seller/auctioneer says
yes, then they have to be genuine LEGO or you have a valid complaint. If they
say they are unsure or they have not checked every piece or do not reply, chances
are they are not genuine LEGO.

Currently cataloguing bulk parts from a recent purchase of used bricks and came
across a 1x1 technic brick (with hole) with a Michelin man sticker. Couple of
questions, does this warrant a new category in the parts catalogue (i.e. Technic
Brick Decorated) or should this just sit in the normal 'brick decorated'?
To the best of my knowledge this brick I think comes from set 75881-1 speed champions
2016 Ford GT (it hold's the rear light clusters on both side of the vehicle
- see attached photo) although this doesn't appear in the parts list for
this set as an 'alternative item'. Should I just send it to Bricklink
admin to add?
Thanks all, any help appreciated.

There are already several printed and stickered technic bricks in the technic
brick category so that's where this should go if the sticker is applied correctly
according to the instructions for the set.

In addition to my last post, also from set 75881-1 are these slopes with the
ford 66, exhaust and air vent pattern. I have both with me now so can take individual
pictures for the catalogue if needs be? I note that these do not appear in the
slope decorated parts list nor an an alternative item in the set's part list.
