The catalog team is considering whether to add this as a new part to the catalog
or just add an alternate item number to 6641.
POLL:
What would you like to see done?
Thanks in advance for your responses!

Looks like set 6038 has this minifig, but with a red cape.

The cas072T is a counterpart. The BL inventory lists
as the regular minifig for that set.

Can this minifig be added to the subtheme Wolfpack? That is why I missed it.
Minifigs: Castle: Wolfpack
|
It is also in Black Knights subtheme
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemIn.asp?M=cas252&in=S
That why it isn't in Wolfpack subtheme as it occur in two subthemes
So only in main Castle theme.

The current name is " 2 x 4 Brick - Satin Black Key Chain".
Should that not be "2 x 4 Brick - Chrome Black Key Chain"?
Or am I mistaken here?

To be honest, I have no idea. 
When submitting the new key chains, I just tried to follow what was said here:
https://www.bricklink.com/messageThread.asp?ID=265187&nID=1186400
There isn't any other part in Satin Black in the catalog yet and I don't
own that Chrome Black Darth Vader to compare the colors.

Chrome black is also this container on the outside
look at the note
I think this brick is chrome black

Now I understand whole misunderstaning about coral here
You can see in the system in shop listnings
"Coral Plant Thallus, Seaweed"
(image attached)
but in this case part name is only
"Plant Thallus, Seaweed"
and coral is name of color we use
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coral_(color)
so whole misunderstanding is here that we use coral in the color meaning but
you thought it is "Coral Plant" - Coral as animal.
Yes it looks strange in listnings but Coral as for now on our system is name
of color not animal.

in my opinion this is seaweed not coral
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seaweed
and btw LEEGO offcial name of this part is plant
https://brickset.com/parts/design-49577
PLANT, W/ 3.2 SHAFT, NO. 2
so I think this also prevails towards seaweed than coral.
|
Out of curiousity, if there would be a coral part, would it be put in... Animal?
|
Should be, zoologist tells you 
| |
By the way, off topic: I think frogs should really be in Animal,Water. They look
too awkward amongst my bag of cats and dogs and his water buddies miss him.
|
and this is a problem  they are water and land animals. Of course all amphibians
need to breed in water and their larve need water but then adults of many species
lives only on land, adult toads for example or Salamndra salamandra. Also in
frogs are species more connected to water and less connected to water. For example
our central european Rana temporaria and Rana arvalis most adult live spend on
land and return to water to breed but Rana lessonae or Rana esculenta they prefer
water than land as adult.

When comparing two Darth Vader figures I had, I discovered a mold variance between
two helmets. The "old" type came likey was made from 1999-2014, while The "new"
type appeared in the 2019 20th Anniversary Clone Scout Walker I think
this new mold was created because in order to create the anniversary figure lego
wanted to use a 1 piece Vader helmet, as opposed to the 2 piece helmets they
switched to a couple of years ago. This mold variation deserves a note in the
catalog entry for the helmet,, or a variant added to the catalog, but I'm
not sure which. If someone wants to take the appropriate action from here, please
go ahead. See the attached image for the differences between the two.
|
I have an original helmet from 1999 and it is fur sure the left variant, so that's
definitly not a new mold. I would also say that most if not all images here show
the left variant:
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemIn.asp?P=30368&in=M
And regarding the reintroduction of the old helmet in set 75261, the designers
said that the old mold was still available:
https://www.brothers-brick.com/2019/04/09/interview-with-lego-star-wars-designers-jens-kronvold-and-kurt-kristiansen-feature/
So I am wondering: Where did you find the right variant and are you sure it is
a genuine LEGO part?
|
I agree with Jonas.
Your "old" mold on right is suspicious. I just take a look on my Vaders from
different years and in all I have left helmet with narrow nose so your "new"
mold. And there is only one diffrence between oldest and newer Vader halmets
from this mold (later on this).
For this post I just took 4 representants from different years.
1) First one is
years 1999-2003
My minfigure on images is from 2002 set.
2) Second one is
years 2009-2016
My minfigure on images is from 2011 set.
3) Third one is
this ony came onluy in 2014 advent calendar.
4) fourth one
the newest one from 2019 anniversary set.
and as you can see all of them have identical narrow nose just like "new one"
from your photo.
The only change is that somwhere in timeline LEGO started to add molded number
on this helmet and LEGO logo. Oldest ones don't have mold number and LEGO
logo. It is visible on images. But with mold number this helmet was already in
2014 advent calendar set and this helmet is identical with 2019 helmet.
btw LEGO has for this part only one mold number and one PCC
https://brickset.com/parts/design-30368
I also check that in this Vader from 2013
helmet is also already with mold number on it. (and it is of course identical
with 2019 one). I couldn't track for now when LEGO have started to molding
part number on this helmet. But beside this only difference oldest helmet without
part number are identical with newer ones with part number.

I got a quote request from a customer saying that the shipping was too high.
When I looked at the order it looks like the below piece is the issue.
I have shipped this part before with no issues as lettermail.
With Canada post anything thicker than 2cm must be sent as parcel which is much
more expensive.
I am trying to understand how bricklink takes the 2x2x2 and translates that to
shipping dimensions in centimetres or inches.
Also can someone help me to understand how this can be 2x2x2 when one side is
longer than it is wide.
Is one of the measurements stacked bricks?
Thanks for any help

So this request has been rejected a note to the minfigure has been added.

If it had been anyone other than the person who discovered the new piece, I would
think it wasn't really two versions.

Inventory of this set was made from Sealed Set Content by Stormchaser and there
are two DBG 44302b so it was logicall that this min figs would have the same
parts even it minfig by itself was inventoried from instruction but luckily
only 4 were used here and two are still in set inventory. So assumpsion was correct
that minfig will have the same variant as one currently in inventory from sealed
set content.

Minfigures can't have alternate parts. Only a note can be added that there
are two variants of this part in this minfigure
As for stickered and unsitckered variants of minfigures second entry should be
added.
Example
Sticered minfigures has 's' after number

| | | | | | My guess is that it hasn't been discovered yet that there is a bright green
version, so all the figures with it are being inventoried as having the lime
version.
|
All of the parts of the minifig appear to have bright green print, not lime
|
Which leads me to believe that there are two versions of Buzz and all his parts:
Lime and Bright Green. Which sets each came in I have no idea.
|
The bright green print may have come from the magnet gear set
* | | 852949 (Inv) Magnet Set, Minifigures Toy Story (3) - Woody, Alien, Buzz Lightyear - with 2 x 4 Brick Bases blister pack
Gear: Magnet: Toy Story |
Those were made in China, I believe, and could possibly have had poor quality
control.
I have not seen a Buzz with anything but lime print, but all of the ones I have
came from the real Toy Story sets.
|
Weren't the magnet sets all glued when these came out?
|
They started gluing it from 2011, Magnet sets from 2009 and 2010 are not glued.
But there are some sets which have not glued and glued versions.
Evrything is here
http://thebrickblogger.com/2011/06/glued-and-non-glued-lego-magnets/
So in our catalog those from 2011 and later aren't inventoried, inventoried
are those from 2009 and 2010.

There is only one tile with this pattern in this set. Your submitted sticker
nr 4 from sticker sheet
please notice that sticker number 7 differs. Middle gold Zigzag is moved closer
to the edge on sticker 4 and it is more centered on sticker number 7, so triangels
on one of those sticker are smaller. That is why I've name ii 'Pattern
1' and there is a note made for this part that it is number 4 sticker.
Request will be accepted but quantity change to 1.
