Reza -

Assuming that you know where the images are located on the web, could you please
add hyperlinks to where you find the images in your requests?

The hyperlinks may not always be valid, but at least I can look them over for
now.

Thanks,
Randy

Randy,

I have saved many photos of used, MISB, or sealed copies for various train sets
from 80s and even before 80s. I got them either from their owners or from past
auctions. So I cannot always find any link as those links are mostly broken by
now. My friend Morris (lego.12vtrains) has saved many photos since 2014-15 and
shared them with me.

For this set, I have photos of many copies. I have also bought an MISB one and
it is currently in the custom office.

One photo is taken from the store Bluxe. You can find easily his photos on facebook.
Search Bluxe. (can I add a link to facebook here?)
Nkiss82 sent me photos of his MISB copy. I used them already for this request:
https://www.bricklink.com/messageThread.asp?ID=244678

Thanks,
Reza

Comments from Submitter:
This stickersheet came in early releases of this set. add also the regular 1x4 bricks and the already in pattern red/white stripes pattern move to the alt. section. So make the '99' MID.

This assembly can’t be New: you have assembled the parts yourself, that’s the
definition of Used.

Rubbish, putting two brand new, unused parts together does not make them used.
I list the assembly as new if the parts came from a sealed set

The current catalog guidelines still in effect are only those on the left

My bad, Robert. I forgot that those sections were the "work in progress" ones.

The section that I was referencing about minifigures being added to the catalog
in your new version contains the same basic information as the old version but
worded in a much friendlier way. Therefore, everything that I posted is not
affected by which version someone references.

The page I should have referred to was https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=71

Cheers,
Randy

  Well, I actually agree with yorbrick the "boy" should be added to the catalog.
I understand the Bricklink catalog follows the instructions and that is a good
and smart choice, but how far will we go? When I saw the set my first thought
was like "only a girl? oh wait a sec, there's the boy hair" and the box literally
has the boy on the side of the box. To me the hair seems off on the dad and he's
not shown that way either. Nor is it logical that a minifig has an extra piece
to make a marginally different minifig with no different meaning. The torso of
the child is clearly unisex (if not boyish) so in my opinion everything points
to the hairpiece being intended for the child.

If so, it begs the question if we really want to stick 100% to the instructions
in every case. I think at least adding minfigs that are shown on the box as alternates
is not such a stretch.

I think you are not asking for what we ultimately want, perhaps because you are
aware that it is as far as we can get without the programmers getting involved.
What we ultimately want is to be able to put alternates into minifig inventories.

There are quite a LOT of minifigs the last few years that come with a hair and
a hat, usually pictured somewhere with each. I think it would clutter things
up a lot. Look at [s-60134-1] and
 
Set No: 60153  Name: People pack - Fun at the beach
* 
60153-1 (Inv) People pack - Fun at the beach
104 Parts, 15 Minifigures, 2017
Sets: Town: City: Recreation
. They have a certain way they
are designed to go, but the instructions show some pictures of them all mixed
and matched, legs, torsos, heads and hair. They each have 15 minifigs. How
many variants does that inventory need to have in it?

  Well, I actually agree with yorbrick the "boy" should be added to the catalog.

Your opinion has been noted and future admin teams may decide to go in that direction.
However, the current admin team on both the catalog and inventory sides had discussions
and agreed on how to proceed in this situation. I do not see that changing for
the foreseeable future.

  I understand the Bricklink catalog follows the instructions and that is a good
and smart choice, but how far will we go?

There are a few other situations like this that I know of from my personal collection.
In all of those cases, the current guidelines that are in place were followed
in the catalog and subsequently the inventories. So, for now, it makes sense
to keep things consistent with the guidelines to keep the catalog consistent.

  To me the hair seems off on the dad and he's not shown that way either.

First of all, you are assuming that it is a dad, but I do to. What is not an
assumption is that he *is* shown that way in one version of the instructions:
https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1117220

  Nor is it logical that a minifig has an extra piece to make a marginally different
minifig with no different meaning.

Since when was LEGO logical? They already had *two* attempts at this, and
according to you, they screwed up on both of them. Who are we to say that it
is not the way they intended it? Third time's a charm?

  The torso of the child is clearly unisex (if not boyish)

If the torso is *clearly* unisex, then how could it be "boyish"?

  so in my opinion everything points to the hairpiece being intended for the child.

If so, it begs the question if we really want to stick 100% to the instructions
in every case.

As I stated above, at least for the foreseeable future, the answer is "yes".
If Robert, Ronald and Maggie want to add this topic to the Catalog Roadmap, then
I don't see why it could not be considered. I would not expect it to have
any sort of large priority, though.

Thanks for your comments,
Randy

Many questions come up in the forum to identify minifigures that have the wrong

is the nature of LEGO parts; they get played with and mixed up all the time.
Sellers are free to sell those minifigures as "customs", but it behooves them
to find a closely related minifigure in the catalog to sell under and either
sell it as incomplete or fix the minifigure they have to match the one in the

I wonder why this is missing from the current inventory. Anyway, it was (as expected) in the stack o'tracks in the set I just opened and built. This inventory is also missing all stickered parts. I'll probably do them when I disassemble my set after Christmas.

  And anyone can change the interpretation (and minifigs) to better represent their
own situation.

Although they cannot sell it as a boy as depicted on the box, unless listed as
a custom minifig. No doubt in time people will wonder which minifigure they have
and not be able to match up the boy version with a minifigure in the catalogue.

Haha that's crazy, seems the person making the instructions made the mistake.
I guess Bricklink follows the instructions and not the box, so probably it should
stay like this then... Although unless dad has a job as a hairdresser or fashion
designer I do think he looks a bit off with that kids/teenage haircut

Well, we’re assuming it’s a “dad”. It could be a “big brother” or a “young uncle”
too

And anyone can change the interpretation (and minifigs) to better represent their

I guess if dad really is a hairdresser or fashion designer, the girl's hair
could be even better

Set No: 40292  Name: Christmas Gift Box
* 
40292-1 (Inv) Christmas Gift Box
293 Parts, 2 Minifigures, 2018
Sets: Holiday & Event: Christmas

LOL, so the Christmas giftset 40292 has a male and a female hairpiece so that
the child can be a boy or a girl (and they're both on the box). But someone
uploaded a picture where the alternate hair is put on the DAD's head, kind
of making it a dad's hairdo optionality feature

https://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemInv.asp?S=40292-1

Actually, it IS a “dad’s hairdo optionality feature”: there are two versions
of the instructions and each one uses different hair for the dad.

Comments from Submitter:
Source: sealed box

I modified only parts I can see inside the blister.
I think other color come on Sprue, but I didn't see them.

How do you deal with odd count of regular parts?
39 = 19 X 2 + 1 and 1 extra?


On pictures, you can't see clearly trans-red parts.
But I've seen the Sprue by eyes
