55826c01 Bionicle Weapon Inika Light-up Laser Crossbow

Part No: 55828c01  Name: Bionicle Weapon Inika Light-up Energized Ice Sword

55828c01 Bionicle Weapon Inika Light-up Energized Ice Sword
Parts: BIONICLE {Pearl Light Gray}

55823's is 56442
55824's is 56451
55825's is 56545
55826's is 56457
55827's is 56460

The number 56444 (noted on 55828 as being for the sword) appears on the black
plastic piece (electronic casing?), and is the same inside all six weapons. If
I were to guess, the numbers for the main part is behind the electronics, but
I'm not quite willing to tear these apart.

Also when displayed like this it's apparent that 55825c01 has a naming inconsistency,
listing the set number. Is there a preference there?

55825's is 56454* Typo sigh

Part No: 42042  Name: Bionicle Krana Holder 3 x 4 (Scoop / Bucket with Axle Hole)
* 
42042 Bionicle Krana Holder 3 x 4 (Scoop / Bucket with Axle Hole)
Parts: BIONICLE {Brown}
Why is this part listed as "42042"? The ID of 42042 (and all the Element
IDs listed on this part) belong the Krana*. Shouldn't the scoop be listed
as "x[number]" since its ID is unknown?

*All 8 shapes of Krana share the same ID, as they were produced in the same mold,
which is how they were randomized.


There is a project on hold to fix this. Just need the time...

Cheers,
Randy

Part 41673 is called "BION. HEAD, INTERM. PLATE" and is contextual to
2002.
I don't know whether this krana holder is an assembly, but I have the following
IDs:

4163137 - 2 Grey
4164414 - 1 White
4164415 - 23 Bright Blue
4164416 - 25 Earth Orange
4164417 - 28 Dark Green
4164418 - 21 Bright Red

4163138 - 27 Dark Grey

Good find!
I don't see any evidence that they're an assembly.

When you click on the colored cells in the color guide (https://www.bricklink.com/catalogColors.asp)
you get a link to for instance (for Pearl Very Light Gray): https://www.bricklink.com/catalogList.asp?colorID=119

But what is this even meant to show? If it was linking to say, https://www.bricklink.com/catalogList.asp?catType=P&colorPart=119
- that would make sense (but also be redundant, because the Parts column already
links there).

As far as I can tell, it seems to match "On Wanted List", which is entirely
non-sensical? (For instance, Pearl White links to https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?G=853508#T=C&C=0
which makes no sense beside that it is for some reason on Wanted Lists).

Should these even have a link at all?

  Please give 3001special access to all colors in the catalog, including Modulex
colors.

Often when uploading test bricks, it is hard to find the exact color, so having
all colors available is a must.

Also, some test bricks actually come in Modulex colors.

It would be great if this can be added.

Thanks,
Maxx

and vice versa There have been many Modulex bricks found in standard LEGO
colors...
https://store.bricklink.com/rylie_aitch&utm_content=globalnav#/shop?o={%22sort%22:9,%22desc%22:1,%22pgSize%22:100,%22itemID%22:87346,%22showHomeItems%22:0}

Now we just need 26 Black in Modulex and it will have all the classic's
(except the transparents...)

Sealed set: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o0vceF1fIyE Only three 32270's are used in the instructions, and the 32039 is unused. However, they are part of the piece count (43) and appear in the inventory from LEGO. This matches with Peeron (http://www.peeron.com/inv/sets/8571-1) outside of a supposed extra 3713.

  Merging parts did not move element numbers over because the merging process doesn’t
come with that built into it. Was that something that site admin considered before
this bright idea? Nope. Why bother ensuring a smooth transition when you can
carry on without a plan in mind? After all, that seems to be par for site administration.

Yikes :v That's really concerning.

You know Bricklink really, sincerely cares about it's volunteer catalog contributors,
though, right? /s

  I know the number for the left one but it was NOT included in the set.

The reason? Perhaps to save some costs leaving out the support on inner sides?

557 Parts, 2024

a new version of right wedge 41747 appeared (but not for the left one)

 
Part No: 41747  Name: Wedge 6 x 2 Right

41747 Wedge 6 x 2 Right
Parts: Wedge

The new part 5711 at the front in the comparison photo has no supports on the
inner sides like the older part has (at the back we can see the old version for
the left wedge)

Thansk Mauro

New left shell has part number 5830.

What was the point of introducing a new mold for a perfectly fine part?

As far as I know, the old version should be cheaper to produce. It has thinner
walls, with the "supports" being there to increase the thickness where
necessary in order to still make contact with studs.

I find it strange that they made a separate ID for this change though; although
they did introduce 3556, basically 3001 with thick walls and no middle supports...
which I guess is also identical to an older edition of 3001 :/ Different times,
different qualifiers for what's a new mold?

As a general trend, they also seem to have moved a lot of parts from 5-digit
IDs to 4-digit recently without any significant changes?
