I just received a number of 2x4 bricks to complete my color pallet, but I've
already identified two problem with the order, and I'm unsure if the other
bricks included are the right color either. The tall part is confirmed Blue-violet
from set 8781. The two purple-ish pieces are supposed to be Medium Violet and
Light Purple. While I believe one of them might be Medium Violet, 1) I don't
know which one it would be and 2) I'm fairly sure the second is not Light
Purple so I don't know what it would be.

Sorting through the catalog to complete minifig and came across
 
Minifig No: cas375  Name: Fantasy Era - Troll Warrior 5
* 
cas375 (Inv) Fantasy Era - Troll Warrior 5
Minifigures: Castle: Fantasy Era
.
Is this a real minifig? If so, can someone submit an actual picture so we don't
have a weird photoshopped image.

I acquired a bulk lot recently and it included instruction and parts for
 
Set No: 7413  Name: Passage of Jun-Chi
* 
7413-1 (Inv) Passage of Jun-Chi
96 Parts, 1 Minifigure, 3 Gear, 2003
Sets: Adventurers: Orient Expedition
.

It included a number of other sets as well, so I went ahead and printed inventory
sheets from BL at the time so that I could pick through the parts and sort them
out accordingly. After sorting everything out, I'm rebuilding the set just
to make sure again that everything is there and noticed in step 9 (image) that
it uses
 
Part No: 30389  Name: Hinge Brick 2 x 2 Locking with 1 Finger Vertical (Undetermined Type)
* 
30389 Hinge Brick 2 x 2 Locking with 1 Finger Vertical (Undetermined Type)
Parts: Hinge
. The inventory that I have printed has
 
Part No: 30389b  Name: Hinge Brick 2 x 2 Locking with 1 Finger Vertical and Axle Hole
* 
30389b Hinge Brick 2 x 2 Locking with 1 Finger Vertical and Axle Hole
Parts: Hinge
and now
I see on the current inventory that it's [p=30389c]. I see that all three
versions of this part were in use in 2003 when this set was produced, but want
to make sure that I have a valid inventory if I try to put this set up for sale.
Can someone confirm as the parts that I had for building this inventory included
one of 30389 and one of 30389c. Since I need to acquire two of a like part for
the set, I'd like to get the correct version.

I picked up a bulk lot over the weekend that included
 
Set No: 1349  Name: Steven Spielberg Moviemaker Set
* 
1349-1 (Inv) Steven Spielberg Moviemaker Set
413 Parts, 7 Minifigures, 1 Gear, 2000
Sets: Studios
I'm hoping
all the part are here, but in looking at the book that came with it, I quickly
realized that I wouldn't be able to read any of it as it is full German text.
I'm assuming that it's pretty normal to have the instruction books in
different languages, but it made me think as I was looking through the catalog,
how do you list this for sale? Being that I'm based in the US, most would
expect that this is in English, and even with a note on the listing could easily
be mixed up or missed. It's a hefty book/instruction in great shape but
don't want to deal with a language mix up. Thoughts?
