  Please make changes to the following inventory:
 
Set No: 995  Name: Lighting Bricks with Color Filters
* 
995-1 (Inv) Lighting Bricks with Color Filters
15 Parts, 1969
Sets: Classic: Supplemental

* Delete 8 Part 996ac01 Blue Electric, Connector, 1-Way Male Rounded with Hollow Pin (Banana Plug)
* Delete 2 Part x466 White Electric, Wire 12V / 4.5V with two Leads, unspecified length
* Add 1 Part bb0141ac11c41 White Electric, Wire 12V / 4.5V with 2 Leads, with 2 Blue Electric, Connector, 2-Way Male Rounded Narrow Type 1 with Cross-Cut Pins, 41 Studs Long (Alternate) (match ID 2)
* Add 1 Part 996bc01c41 White Electric, Wire 12V / 4.5V, with 4 Blue Electric, Connector, 1-Way Male Rounded with Cross-Cut Pin (Banana Plug), 41 Studs Long (match ID 2)
* Add 1 Part bb0141ac45 White Electric, Wire 4.5V with two light gray 2-prong Type 1 connectors, 45 Studs Long (Alternate) (match ID 2)

You are deleting two of the wires from this inventory, but only adding one wire
with connectors. I am assuming that quantity should be two based on the photos
you posted which all show two wires.

  Just wondering if anyone has a sealed set of
 
Set No: 3178  Name: Seaplane
* 
3178-1 (Inv) Seaplane
98 Parts, 1 Minifigure, 2010
Sets: Town: City: Harbor
.

I am parting out an incomplete set bought off Ebay and have a query with part
 
Part No: 3794  Name: Plate, Modified 1 x 2 with 1 Stud, Jumper (Undetermined Type)
* 
3794 Plate, Modified 1 x 2 with 1 Stud, Jumper (Undetermined Type)
Parts: Plate, Modified {Light Bluish Gray}
.

The current inventory lists the undetermined part 3794 in LBG, but I have found
 
Part No: 15573  Name: Plate, Modified 1 x 2 with 1 Stud with Groove and Bottom Stud Holder (Jumper)
* 
15573 Plate, Modified 1 x 2 with 1 Stud with Groove and Bottom Stud Holder (Jumper)
Parts: Plate, Modified {Light Bluish Gray}
LBG during part out.

So hence the request for a sealed set to check which variant is used, and to
correct the catalogue if needed.

Linda

Based on the timeline of the set and the part I think it's very unlikely
that 15573 would be found in this set. Most likely just 3794a in early production
runs of the set with 3794b possibly showing up as an alternate in later production
runs.

Comments from Submitter:
I’ve just opened a sealed and verify all the pieces with the inventory.

Parts from the two molds are still in production? Do I need to add an alternate or the previous selection might be an error?

Thanks

My set has the part with groove, so it is not an error. Adding 44567b as an alternate
was the correct choice.

The left and right side stickers are not the same. BA152pb01 goes on the left
side and BA151pb01 goes on the right side of the car. I have changed quantity
to 1 for both of these.

  Hey fellow bricklinkers,

Today i parted out 20 times set 41916 - dots series 2 charms.

I added half of the printed tiles to the catalog (the other half was already
there), but it is not added to the set inventory. Am I to impatient or did i
do something wrong in adding?

Very curious in discovering (still...) the adding to the catalog functions

Thx for your insights! - Marielle

Hi, after they are added to the catalog they still have to be added to the set
inventory. You can submit an inventory change request to add them to the inventory
at https://www.bricklink.com/catalogInvChange.asp?itemType=S

Comments from Submitter:
With existing inventory you can only build 2 wheels, but you need 4 wheels. Source: Building instruction.

Existing inventory looks correct to me and Lego replacement parts also shows
the same quantities of these parts.

Comments from Submitter:
This set is from 1981, could not have come with round bricks with solid stud.

Certainly seems unlikely that it would have. Without evidence for its appearance
in this set I think this request can be accepted. The catalog image for this
set shows open studs and that would have been taken before the sets were packed.
The image on the front of the instructions does show solid studs, but that was
probably just copied from the older European version 677-1.

* Add 1 Part BA144pb01 Orange Stickered Assembly 1 x 2 x 1 2/3 with White Number 2 on Black and Orange Checkered Pattern (Sticker) - Set 8641 - 1 Brick, Modified 1 x 2 x 1 1/3 with Curved Top, 1 Plate 1 x 1 (Counterpart)

Comments from Submitter:
When it is a multi-colored SOA - do you select the color that has the most % of being in the part? Or should it be a N/A color?


We have both ways in that category so far but there have only been 2 examples
previously.

This is one with N/A as the color:

 
Part No: BA140pb01  Name: Stickered Assembly 10 x 4 x 1 with Black and Yellow Danger Stripes Pattern (Sticker) - Set 622 - 2 Black Plate 2 x 10, 1 Black Plate 2 x 2, 1 Yellow Plate 2 x 4, 1 Yellow Vehicle, Mudguard 2 x 4 with Arch Smooth, 1 Yellow Vehicle, Mudguard 2 x 4 with Arch Studded
* 
BA140pb01 Stickered Assembly 10 x 4 x 1 with Black and Yellow Danger Stripes Pattern (Sticker) - Set 622 - 2 Black Plate 2 x 10, 1 Black Plate 2 x 2, 1 Yellow Plate 2 x 4, 1 Yellow Vehicle, Mudguard 2 x 4 with Arch Smooth, 1 Yellow Vehicle, Mudguard 2 x 4 with Arch Studded
Parts: Stickered Assembly

But this was added as red:

 
Part No: BA107pb01  Name: Stickered Assembly 8 x 8 x 1 with '14 CHALLENGE' and Ferrari Logo Pattern (Sticker) - Set 8143 - 1 Slope 10 6 x 8, 2 Tile 1 x 8
* 
BA107pb01 Stickered Assembly 8 x 8 x 1 with '14 CHALLENGE' and Ferrari Logo Pattern (Sticker) - Set 8143 - 1 Slope 10 6 x 8, 2 Tile 1 x 8
Parts: Stickered Assembly

We should decide one way or the other though - N/A makes the most sense I think

There's also this one:
 
Part No: BA097pb01  Name: Stickered Assembly 12 x 2 x 2/3 with 'AIRPORT' Pattern (Sticker) - Set 7894 - 1 Plate 2 x 12, 4 Tile 1 x 6
* 
BA097pb01 Stickered Assembly 12 x 2 x 2/3 with 'AIRPORT' Pattern (Sticker) - Set 7894 - 1 Plate 2 x 12, 4 Tile 1 x 6
Parts: Stickered Assembly
Which has its inventory change request still pending in color white. But I agree
that N/A is probably better for these multi-color assemblies.

Comments from Submitter:
Wrong armor shoulder pads are listed for this figure, this can be confirmed from the instruction download from lego on page 5 of set 70010. I have this figure and can provide picture of correct setup if needed.

This has been wrong in the catalog for a long time and many sellers probably
have this listed as pictured. So it would be better to add a new minifigure and
have this one marked for deletion.

It looks like the armor shoulder pads for this minifigure were switched with
another minifigure this is pcitured with 11097 when it should have 11098. Can
you also add a new minifigure for this one?

  Ah I forgot, in the case of onsite payment, instant checkout does not trigger

Anyway the purchase confirmation is not an invoice as it's neither a payment
instruction (pro forma invoice) nor a valid receipt. You always need to get an
order confirmation first (in the EU it gives you rights to the items, provided
that the seller can deliver). Also, changing it to "invoice" would cause the
buyer to receive two "invoices" if they are not paying onsite.

That is not correct. There are three message templates related to orders being
placed. Purchase confirmation is used when the buyer pays at instant checkout.
Order Notification and Order invoice are sent if the buyer does not pay at checkout.
For example if they choose a shipping method and/or payment method that can't
pay at checkout.

Further information on this: the order invoice is sent immediately when the order
is placed if the shipping method qualifies for instant checkout but the buyer
selects a payment method that does not qualify for instant checkout.

The seller has to manually send the invoice if the buyer selects a shipping method
that does not qualify for instant checkout.

  I recently decided to add instant checkout to my store. I received my first
ever neutral feedback because I didn't include a note as requested in the
buyer's comment section. My suggestion is to add the buyer's comments
section on the sellers invoice (like it always has been on the invoice when an
invoice was requested). There is no buyer's comments section on the email
I receive notifying me that an order has been placed. In this instance, this
caused an unpleasant experience for the buyer.

Did you put the BUYERCOMMENTS in your template? Then it should work.

Not even sure how you managed to have a different invoice for IC than for manual?
I wish there was a INSTANTCHECKOUT-EQ conditional macro tag to handle that, but
there isn't...

https://www.bricklink.com/v2/mystore/message_templates.page

The one you want to edit is "Purchase Confirmation", that is supposedly an invoice
you issue for instant checkout. I am thinking of adding some lines to that so
it can serve as a sort of an invoice and a receipt in one, or well, just something
better than basically telling the buyer he has ordered a thing from somewhere
with not even a thank you for the payment and no terms.

You of course cannot edit the header and call the thing an invoice, grrr

  The hose in my copy of the set is 77mm (slightly under 10 studs) in length.
There is no way to know if it's been cut down at some point, of course.

I've done some more investigation.

My hose is a different colour to the other 'classic hose' parts I have;
it also has a slightly smaller inner diameter, although it is still larger than
that of a genuine pneumatic hose.

So either there have been different types of hose used over the years (possible)
or else what I have is an aftermarket replacement.

Whichever it is, I'm inclined to believe that this set most likely only ever
shipped with a 12L hose.

Thanks for checking further. Based on this we'll conclude for now that this
set only came with the 12L hose. But the 10L hose can be added back if someone
finds evidence of it.

Checked in set in my personal collection that was bought new sealed and never mixed with parts from other sets.

Hey Paul,

You bought this ultra rare set sealed?
How many years ago?

Check the inventory change log for this set for my changes in December 2012.
I added the variants that I found in my set as alternates at that time. Not sure
when exactly I bought it but based on that request it was at least before December
2012.

* 
6882-1 (Inv) Walking Astro Grappler
87 Parts, 1 Minifigure, 1985

All pictures that I have checked of set 6882 have solid studs, but none appear
to come from sealed sets.

/Jan

I checked my set 6391 and it has 4345a. So that leaves only one of these sets
where we don't have the solid stud variant confirmed.

Comments from Submitter:
Upon verifying this set, it appears that there is an alternate head type with is "recessed/closed" and not "blocked/open". Unless this variance should create no concern, a note should be made that this item contains a head variant. A note should also be made to col084, as the minifigure in 853600 could be confused with the original. Or, a new catalog entry should be made for the variant head.

The new head should be added to the catalog first and can then be added as an
alternate to this magnet set.

Please see comments and pictures in forum for this request for details.

In my childhood collection, I have only ever had three of these kind of hoses,
from set
 
Set No: 6980  Name: Galaxy Commander
* 
6980-1 (Inv) Galaxy Commander
412 Parts, 5 Minifigures, 1983
Sets: Space: Classic Space
and
 
Set No: 6881  Name: Lunar Rocket Launcher
* 
6881-1 (Inv) Lunar Rocket Launcher
90 Parts, 1 Minifigure, 1984
Sets: Space: Classic Space
, and those hoses were never replaced or mixed
with other collections. I've attached pictures of all three, and they're
all very close to 10 cm long (which means that the 9.6 cm stated for this part
is actually not precise).

So has
 
Part No: x467c10  Name: Hose, Classic 4mm D. 10L / 8.0cm (flexible)
* 
x467c10 Hose, Classic 4mm D. 10L / 8.0cm (flexible)
Parts: Hose
actually ever been confirmed in set 6980? It only seems to
exist in black for this set, and judging by the current amount for sale (14),
this part may not exist (taking into account that some hoses may have been shortened
or measured/inventoried wrong).

/Jan

I checked my set and I also have a hose that ca. 10 cm. It's possible that
the person who added the 10L hose thought that 10L meant 10 cm. The hose was
added to this inventory before the length in cm was added to the name of the
hose.

  Is there any way for me to view the weight/dimensions of a set from its catalog
entry in Imperial units (pounds/inches- ghastly, I know, but I live in America)?
I commonly use this when quoting shipping for a buyer so I don't have to
dig out a set every time someone asks, but it is always a little bit of hassle
to convert grams to pounds and cm to inches.

  I am unsure if this is an alternate part or if the original inventory had the wrong part identified.

Through a stroke of remarkably good fortune, I was able just now to make contact
with the person who originally submitted that inventory. I have been assured
beyond any doubt whatsoever that the current inventory includes the correct version
of the part, which is clearly different than what came in your copies of the
set.

Therefore, your addition should be an alternate part as requested.


I just saw who the original submittor was and it is amazing that you were able
to contact them so fast. Thank them for me.

Is this normal? Are they perhaps running out the old part and using them up
in sets whilst bringing in the new one?

It is not unusual to see new prints introduced as alternates in sets when the
older version is no longer in production. It looks like they were using up the
last of the old print in some sets this year. And are now switching to the new
print in those sets. So I would not be surprised to see the new print added as
an alternate in more sets.

The new print was already in the inventory for another set, 60257-1, from the
beginning. But that could have been a last-minute decision. If you look at the
instructions for that set you'll see that it shows the new print in the parts
list and in the parts needed on step 21 where this parts is added in the build.
But in the actual construction it still shows the old print. See screenshot of
instructions for 60257:

Are you sure this is not white? I've seen some images where it doesn't
look entirely white, but that seems like it is the trans-light blue part shining
through.

Sets: Town: City: Police

* Add 1 Part 3020 White Plate 2 x 4

Comments from Submitter:
Disassembled one and used the bricklink page to make sure I had every part.
I still had a 2x4 white plate left over. Checked the paper instructions and it listed the part.
It's used in step 48.

This is already in the alternate items section. See also the inventory note:

Redesigned during production.

There are at least 2 different versions of instructions for this set. The differences
for the second version are indicated in this inventory in the Alternate Items
section with Match ID 99.

Quick overview of redesign: A white 2 x 4 plate is added to the police van's
emergency light rack, moving it forward by one stud.

your inventory says 6 but i just built this looking at the instructions and can only find use for 5.

Looking at the instructions I see 3 added in step 12 and another 3 in step 16
for a total of 6.

Inventory is different from pictured set.

Looks like the original inventory may have been (partially) copied from set 4287082-2?
These changes will make the inventory match the image of the set.

  Part number 4895 shows as black in Bricklink inventory yet at the bottom of the
inventory it indicates - 1 sp074 (Inv)Classic Space Droid - Dish Base, Blue with
Trans-Red Eyes and Black Antenna in which the blue version is used. In an inventory
on another site (Peeron) it indicates blue. Which is correctÉ

Both. There is one in blue used in the droid and one in black is used in step
14 of the instructions.

3432 and 3433 have the same stickersheets, but I don't see any dark gray
1x4 tiles in the inventory for this set. So it looks like these counterparts
should only be in 3432.

  The proposed update has made me question the definition of a part.

The old definition: "Individual elements that make up a set."

The new definition: "Individual elements and assemblies used during the
process of building models." (emphasis mine)

The addition of "and assemblies" is significant. Under the old definition, parts
such as

 
Part No: 2878c02  Name: Train Wheel RC, Holder with 2 Black Train Wheel RC Train and Chrome Silver Train Wheel RC Train, Metal Axle (2878 / 57878 / x1687)
* 
2878c02 (Inv) Train Wheel RC, Holder with 2 Black Train Wheel RC Train and Chrome Silver Train Wheel RC Train, Metal Axle (2878 / 57878 / x1687)
Parts: Wheel

This one never came assembled.

  
 
Part No: 3680c02  Name: Turntable 2 x 2 Plate with Light Bluish Gray Top (3680 / 3679)
* 
3680c02 (Inv) Turntable 2 x 2 Plate with Light Bluish Gray Top (3680 / 3679)
Parts: Turntable

This one used to come assembled, but that was changed many years ago.

  
 
Part No: 2429c01  Name: Hinge Plate 1 x 4 Swivel (2429 / 2430)
* 
2429c01 (Inv) Hinge Plate 1 x 4 Swivel (2429 / 2430)
Parts: Hinge

This one always comes assembled.

  should not even be considered "parts" in the first place because they are, in
my experience, never included in assembled form in official lego sets (other
experiences may differ, there being many official lego sets). However, the new
definition refers to "models" instead of "sets", so this implies that we are
no longer constrained by what is included in official, boxed lego sets. Where
do you draw the line between an assembly that is a "part" and one that is something
else? Should assemblies such as the ones above even be considered parts in the
first place?

There are of course also the torso assemblies and legs assemblies that always
come assembled in sets. And some others as well.

Comments from Submitter:
your inventory has 3, but i just build the set and can only find use for 2. i put "add" but it is actually "delete" but that function is not working right now.

Looks like this is one of those early inventories where all parts were added
in the regular items section when one of them was an extra.

This is not a correctly applied sticker. The correct sticker has the DB logo
and the number 7740 on one sticker which is partially applied on the black train
base.

I think it it obvious that this is an extra part.

Correct. Only two of these are supposed to be in the set in they are in the minifigure.
This also brings the part count down to 36 which is what it says on the packaging.

Comments from Submitter:
There should be a note the Shell logo on the torso for set 601-1 is lighter red and the border is fine. Or must this be an other entry?

Is it really lighter red or is it just the image of the sticker sheet that looks
lighter than the images of the other stickers?

with red eyebrows.
The head in my set looks more red than brown, but less red than the print in
other sets. See attached image. The leftmost and middle parts are from set
 
Set No: 7937  Name: Train Station
* 
7937-1 (Inv) Train Station
344 Parts, 4 Minifigures, 2010

Set No: 7939  Name: Cargo Train
* 
7939-1 (Inv) Cargo Train
822 Parts, 4 Minifigures, 2010
Sets: Train: RC Train
. Actually, I think that the current image
for trn227 shows red eyebrows. Any opinions?

Also, I believe that a note should be made somewhere to check all sets that claim
to have the brown eyebrows variant. It might be that it's actually not in
those sets because the red eyebrows BOS variant wasn't in the catalog until
2017, 7 years after its (currently) first apperance in a set.

/Jan

I think the heads have either red, reddish brown, or dark red eyebrows. So you
are looking at all three colors here.

Cheers,
Randy

I checked a couple of sets in my personal collections and there are multiple
colors. I found brown, reddish brown, dark red and red eyebrows in minifigures
that are supposed to have this head.

44809 Technic, Pin Connector Perpendicular 2 x 2 Bent

2 parts #44809 in set #9398 are listed at the bottom of the inventory
as an alternate item. But alternate to what?...

We just bought a bulk of lego and took apart truck 9398 to check
what part are we missing. While building it we found out from
the manual that 2 parts 44809 are needed but I couldn't find them
in the BL inventory. And finally I found them at the bottom
as an alternate item but I can not find the other part in main
inventory.

Is it possible that 2 parts #44809 were put by mistake in the bottom
section for alternate items?

Agnes

In the regular section of the inventory there are 30 pieces of part 6536 with
match ID 1. In the alternate section there are 28 pieces of part 6536 and 2 of
part 44809 with match ID 1. So it appears that 2 pieces of part 6536 were replaced
by 2 pieces of part 44809.

Comments from Submitter:
I have deleted my earlier change requests to submit this one, which I feel is more correct. I remember 1977_mauro as someone who was opening sealed sets and making some change requests, and so the parts that I am deleting from this inventory I am also adding as extra parts.

Black Plate 1x1 locations in instructions:

Page 4: x2
Page 10: x4
Page 13: x2
Page 25: x2

Black Plate 1x2 locations in instructions:

Page 4 : x4
Page 7 : x2
Page 9 : x2
Page 10: x2
Page 13: x3
Page 14: x2
Page 17: x2
Page 19: x2
Page 21: x1
Page 23: x2
Page 24: x6
Page 26: x1

Brown Pirate Flintlock Pistol locations in instructions:

Page 27: x2
Page 31: x3

These all appear to be correct. And the pistols have come with an extra in other
sets, so not a surprise to find the same here.

This request will not be accepted because the sticker is not correctly applies.
It should be centered on the container which means that should be partially on
the 1x2x3 panel.

Comments from Submitter:
In Bricklink inventory for set 6382 are listed 11 quantity of 3855a "Glass for Window 1 x 4 x 3 - old style with circle".
But I have 11 quantity of 3855 "Glass for Window 1 x 4 x 3".
My box was bought new many years ago when I was a child. I have no other set with similar items.

My own set also has the glass without circle.

  Since I had saved the photos of the listing, I sent him and got confirmation
that we were talking about the same copy. So I asked him about the extra parts
and he listed them as given here. I found all the extra parts used in an alternate
model except the extra 1*1 black plate.

For extra parts I'd like more evidence than just one used set. Especially
when you only have an extra in black and not in light gray. I know extra 1x1
plates sometimes came in sets from that era, but I would expect them in both
colors.

Comments from Submitter:
I am not sure how to add a sticker part counterpart to the request. Hopefully this works.

There are six stickers to this set. The large placard and five (3660pb15-3660pb18). Unfortunately there is one sticker missing.

If you look at the sticker part 10212stk01, the second one from the lower left is not listed in the inventory. I have this part/sticker if an image is needed.

* Delete 3 Part 3183a Red Plate, Modified 1 x 4 with Towball Socket, Long, 2 Slots (8mm Socket Length)
* Add 3 Part 3183c Red Plate, Modified 1 x 4 with Towball Socket, Short, 4 Slots (7mm Socket Length)

See photos.

I can definitely see the 4 slots on the tow ball plate sockets, but I can't
be sure if the sockets are 7mm or 8mm from those images. Do you have larger images
of these that you posted?

Cheers,
Randy

I don't think better photos would make you 100% sure. Since I have had the
two variants at hand and check them closely, I am 99.99% that these are 3183c.

By the way, the theory suggests that the 8mm 4 slots were discontinued in 70s

For now, only three sets from 90s listed
 
Part No: 3183b  Name: Plate, Modified 1 x 4 with Tow Ball Socket, Long, 4 Slots (8mm Socket Length)
* 
3183b Plate, Modified 1 x 4 with Tow Ball Socket, Long, 4 Slots (8mm Socket Length)
Parts: Plate, Modified
I believe they are all wrong and 3183b should be replaced with 3183c.

Cheers
Reza

The creases in the plastic bag make it impossible to see the distance from the
slots to the plate which is the easiest way to tell the two variants apart. But
comparing the length of the socket to the width of the plate it does look look
a 7mm socket to me.

I also think you're probably right about the timeline for 3183b and that
it probably never came in sets in the 1990s.

https://www.brickpirate.net/forum/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=21547

Can you please enlighten me to exactly how can you tell from those images whether
the socket is 7mm or 8mm long?

Thanks,
Randy

I have the two versions in my collection. From the photos, like this one
https://www.zupimages.net/up/18/43/msgc.jpg

I am 100% suer it is the 7mm long. I can take few photos of the two variations
for comparison, if that helps.

How can *I* be 100% sure looking at that photo? I can't measure it, and 1mm
between versions is a very small amount. If you can set up a group of photos
that shows the 7mm version and the 8mm version built into the same arrangement
and angle as that photo, I might have more confidence in the change you are requesting.
The photos will need to be very clear, though.


I took some photos but I think the first photo is the best.

This part is composed of a towball socket that is attached to a 1*4 plate. Compare
the length of the slot with its distance from the "1*4 plate". For the 8mm variant,
the ratio is 3:2 but for the 7mm variant, the ratio is something around 5:1 or
4:1.

Distance between plate and slots is indeed the easiest way to verify this from
photos. This one clearly shows the c-variant. In addition to that I also have
this set in my personal collection. I just checked it and it also has the c-variant.

In my copy, there is no extra item.


Shall I submit a request to remove the extra parts?
Otherwise, I can submit a verification of the inventory.

Different production runs sometimes have different extras. Just because your
set didn't have these extras doesn't mean that they were not included
in other sets.

  set 40166 has a new counterpart in the minifig,

the darktan hair is different in about half of the sets i parted,

new partnumber that has to be added is, 25972 instead of 62810


tried changing it in the inventory (no luck since its a minifig entry) so cannot
use the inventory id of the part.

tried the minifig, but that can't have alternate parts,


why does this have to be so hard?
trying to add to the catalog seems to be a 1 time thing for me now, since it's
already taking me 30 minutes to do this, and nothing has happened,

Minifigures can't have alternate parts. So an alternate minifigure needs
to be added to the catalog. That new minifigure can then be added as an alternate
to the set inventory.

If the only difference with Intl/NA is the sheet number, then combine them. If
there is a difference, keep them separate.

I would also like that color be required for sticker sheets. And that it be based
on what the sticker is printed on. So, white, trans-clear, Chrome Silver, Chrome
Gold. it's useful for MOC builders.


I agree with all of this.

  I bought 10+ pcs of 3846pb31 Minifigure, Shield Triangular with Black and Silver

of all his shields, while Seller2's shields have none.

I checked it and it came from 1 set only. Question is, why some have LEGO markings
while others have none? Are those legit LEGO?

I checked the shields from my own set and they don't have markings on them.
I guess they started using a new mold with markings for shields that were included
in later production runs.

It's possible that cty0164 never came in this set because the red eyebrows head variant were identified long afterwards.

The eyebrows in this review look brown to me so I'd say that cty0164 did
come
in this set. https://youtu.be/vt76JSneCOo

* Change 1 Minifig cty0110 Construction Worker - Orange Zipper, Safety Stripes, Orange Arms, Blue Legs, Red Construction Helmet, Brown Eyebrows, Glasses {match ID 0 to 5}

Comments from Submitter:
My set that was bought sealed was never mixed with other bricks came with red eyebrows. It's possible that cty0110 never came in this set because the red eyebrows head variant were identified just recently.

The eyebrows in this review look brown to me so I'd say that cty110 did come
in this set. https://youtu.be/KWdwMmLNraU

  Please make changes to the following inventory:
 
Set No: 4482  Name: AT-TE
* 
4482-1 (Inv) AT-TE
634 Parts, 4 Minifigures, 2003
Sets: Star Wars: Star Wars Episode 2

* Add 1 Part 6069 Light Gray Wedge 4 x 4 Triple without Stud Notches (match ID 1)

Comments from Submitter:
At first I was going to submit this part as "Alternate" as opposed to "Regular" in the type category. But, personally, I have never seen this set come with part number 48933, the version with stud notches, and I can say for certain that mine contains part number 6069. All images I can find on the Internet would point to 6069 being the regular part type, with 48933 at best being an Alternate itself.

The inventory was verified from sealed set contents by an experienced contributor.
So I am trusting that 48933 came in later productions and we will keep it in
this inventory as an alternate.

* 
60224-1 (Inv) Satellite Service Mission
79 Parts, 1 Minifigure, 2019
Sets: Town: City: Space Exploration

* Add 1 Part 3626cpb2385 Yellow Minifigure, Head Black Eyebrows, White Pupils, Cheek Lines, Smirk Pattern - Hollow Stud (Alternate) (match ID 1)

Comments from Submitter:
3626cpb2385 with black eyebrows only is a replacement or alternate for 3626cpb0810 with black and dark tan eyebrows. The head with black only eyebrows was found in 4 out of 5 sets.

In this situation a new minifigure should be added to the catalog with head 3626cpb2385.
That minifigure can then be added as an alternate minifigure to set 60224.

This request will not be accepted.

3626cpb2385 with black eyebrows only is a replacement or alternate for 3626cpb0810 with black and dark tan eyebrows. The head with black only eyebrows was found in 4 out of 5 sets (60224 - Satellite Service Mission).

Minifigures cannot have alternate items in their inventory. In this case a new
minifigure should be added to the catalog with head 3626cpb2385. That minifigure
can then be added as an alternate minifigure to set 60224.

Set No: 6073  Name: Knight's Castle
* 
6073-1 (Inv) Knight's Castle
390 Parts, 6 Minifigures, 1984
Sets: Castle: Black Falcons

* Delete 1 Part 4502c Black Minifigure, Plume Feather Large
* Delete 1 Part 4502a Black Minifigure, Plume Feather Small
* Delete 1 Part 4502c Red Minifigure, Plume Feather Large
* Delete 1 Part 4502a Red Minifigure, Plume Feather Small

Comments from Submitter:
It is obvious from the instruction booklet that the triple plume (4502b) version is essential for the mini figures, but the small and large plumes are not visible and there is no place other than the knight's helmets for them to go. Are they truly part of the original set?

From the Additional Information About Regular Items section of the Inventory
Sections: Regular, Extra, Counterpart, and Alternate
help page:

https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=1562

Parts on Sprues - Complete sprues are included in this section unless
some parts from the sprues are used in minifigures. In that case, the parts from
the sprues that are not used in minifigures are included in this section.

These requests will not be accepted.

Comments from Submitter:
Wrong part listed

Part 33057 was included in this set when it was first released. Did you find
42876 in a sealed set? In that case it can be added as an alternate.

Got a message from the submitter stating that 42876 was found in a sealed set
so it will be added as an alternate.
