From Set 76175.
Hmmm, that's a tough one. The box front advertises Peter Parker (see attached
image). We could include the mannequin as the standard figure in the inventory,
but I think people will want the Peter Parker figure as advertised - so maybe
include s693 as an inventory alternate?

Why not have the inventory of the figure include both heads?

| However, this does bring up a larger point about which types of images serve

If enough people think they are an improvement over what we have now, we could
maybe give an option to select one or the other depending on preference.

I agree that the older renders with the black edges were terrific. One reason
was their simplicity, but another was consistency. I've browsed stores
where I'm looking at one color category of parts, and the small images are
not all the same color. (This is most noticeable with light bluish gray and
dark tan.)
I would love an option for viewing the original style thumbnail images. Maybe
it could be some checkbox or dropdown menu option?
All attached images are just for nostalgia.

| When you use onsite PayPal, there are a couple of steps to go through, and the
final step for payment brings you back to Bricklink for payment confirmation.
Currently that confirmation page shows the icon for Admin_Jaclyn as the administrator.
I think she did a fine job when she was with Bricklink, but I also think that
any user icon that appears on that page should be of a current member of the
BL administrator team. Of course, that page could also function just fine with
a non-user specific BL logo or no image at all.

I can see why the submitter would think that he needed to retitle all the submissions.
If the word "retitle" is just a note to the catalog administrators, then it
should be added in a way that is only visible to the catalog administrators (similar

Since the notes were added in a way that someone besides the catalog administrators

David

I think the change of ALL colour names should be a priority because however bizarre
Legos colour names may seem to us it is the manufacture who made those decisions
for their product and so it’s their name choices that should take precedence?
If an established and well-known paint brand names one of their colours ‘Bright
Yellowish Green’ distributors and retailers should follow that colour guide because
by re-labelling it as ‘Lime’ they only create confusion for their customers.
The customer knows the brand of paint they want and they know the colour that
the manufacture calls it and yet the customer is expected to somehow work it
out for themselves or if they’re lucky stumble across a third party colour guide?
The variations of the Lego product are confusing enough at the best times so
why create further confusion in areas that are easily fixed?
|
Bricklink has been around for 20 years. Bricklink being owned by LEGO is a recent
thing, so for a couple decades Bricklink customers have become used to the Bricklink
color names. Changing them because TLC bought Bricklink is not logical.
Furthermore, you compare color names for LEGO parts to color names for well-known
paint brands. You mention "The customer knows the brand of paint they want and
they know the colour that the manufacture calls it," however, that's not
the case with LEGO. Very few LEGO customers are going to know that TLC calls
regular green "Dark Green" and that they call dark green "Earth Green." Changing
names like that at this point would cause a lot of confusion.

I have some of that part in trans-neon green, and I can concur that it does not

Agree. If my memory is correct, the part in sets with horses usually would have

What do these numbers refer to?
Apologies if this has been asked before - I cannot find a thread.
Thanking you all

The one or two digit numbers indicate molds and mold cavities in the actual machine
that creates the parts from liquid plastic injection. As far as what year TLC
started putting part numbers on the parts themselves, I'm afraid I do not
know.

than the 32X32s for every production run.

Wasn’t Tan impacted by the Great Colour Shift?
If there were more “old Tan” 16x32 in stock, they would have been used alongside
“new Tan” 32x32.
|
I have not heard of tan being affected by the 2004 Color Shift. (My tan bricks
and other non-baseplate parts are the same shade of tan before and after 2004.)
However, just because TLC didn't change the exact shade of tan on purpose
doesn't mean that they didn't change it at all.

| This past week at Brickworld Indy I noticed that all of my tan 16X32 baseplates
were a different shade of tan than all of my 32X32 tan baseplates.
My tan 32X32 BPs appear to be the same color as any tan brick or other regular
part in tan. However, all of my 16X32 BPs are slightly darker and more yellow.
The difference was, of course, most noticeable when I had the BPs right next
to each other on my display.
The tan 16X32 BP has been in 16 sets over the years, 14 of which were from 1996
to 2002. I have bought all of my tan 16X32 BPs from various sources, and they
are all the same not-quite-LEGO-tan color. There were a couple of Spongebob
sets in 2006 and 2008 that had a tan 16X32 BP. I imagine that none of my BPs
are new enough to be from those most recent sets.
I was wondering, does anyone out there have any tan 16X32 BPs that you know are
from the Spongebob sets, and can verify if they match the shade of other tan
LEGO parts?
Thanks,

Interesting...
I've never used that before, but it's good to know.

| Please make changes to the following inventory:
* Change {2 to 3} Part Red 3001old Brick 2 x 4 without Cross Supports
Comments from Submitter:
The change from Dec 14, 2009 was incorrect. I recently acquired this set sealed, and it does have 3 red 2X4 bricks. The box art definitely shows multiple instances of models that use 3 red 2X4 bricks.

Does your "End" key not work
|
Are you referring to the "End" key that does not exist on my iPad ?
|
If you're trying to do online stuff on an ipad, and you can't scroll
down, just shake it like an Etch-A-Sketch. That should make the bottom of the
page slide into view.

Your reply, while technically correct, does not tell the whole story. The searches
you picked were sufficient to key on the home page of BL. They were not specific
enough to actually find something of interest.
|
Do we really want the Google searches bringing people to the specific catalog
page for the item? I sure don't. I assume that those who want better Google
search results want to attract new customers (new to BL entirely, not just new
to their store.) Someone new to BL would be much better off at the main homepage
instead of a catalog page. That way they can explore the site from the main
starting point. I believe that would lead to a better intro-to-BL experience
and curb many frustrating experiences for both new buyers and sellers.

| I would say yes, but at 20¢ or 25¢ instead of 10¢. Also, would this minimum
amount have to be decided differently for each currency? (10¢ in USD might convert
to a really odd threshold amount in other currencies if it were a flat amount
across the board.)

That looks very useful for those who know how to use that kind of thing.
Could you delete the country codes out of the source code and leave just the
countries you ship to without any adverse effects?
