has a new mold number 86647. I bought and received it from pick-a-brick
and can very the new part number on the mold. I don't have the old mold,
so I can't compare it, but it looks identical to the current part photo.

I have found two different versions of
 
Part No: bb0047  Name: Windup Motor 1980s Key
* 
bb0047 Windup Motor 1980s Key
Parts: Motor, Non-Electric

One has rectangular hole, one has star-shaped (8 points) hole. Of the 5 keys
in my possession, the two of the former are red, the three of the latter are
"rusty" red.

I have only one wind-up motor, and its key hole is rectangular. Both key types
work with it. Whether a motor with star-shaped hole is unknown to me.

Should the keys be split into to new parts?

I just found some interesting things in a lot of mixed bricks: Instructions and
a decent amount of parts from set 4025 (including the figures, hose, hulls and
keels), one white reel holder and two drums & nozzle strings. The reel holder
has no part number molded onto it, so the age is consistent with this set.

But the strings are fused onto the reel. Both parts have a consistent look and
don't look home made. That makes me believe that early version of

* 
4208c01 (Inv) String Reel 2 x 4 x 2 Drum with Black String 35L with Light Gray Hose Nozzle Simple (4208 / 194cx2)
Parts: String Reel / Winch
were actually fused together.

Here are some images. The details are hard to capture but notice the bulge on
the drum cylinder by the hole.

Should

1) that part be updated with a note
2) a new fused-together part be made

?

The bricks in the 3005pt*s series of bricks with serif font prints don't
have a consistent naming pattern. Examples:

 
Part No: 3005ptAs  Name: Brick 1 x 1 with Blue Capital Letter A Pattern (Serif Font)
* 
3005ptAs Brick 1 x 1 with Blue Capital Letter A Pattern (Serif Font)
Parts: Brick, Decorated
 
Part No: 3005ptMs  Name: Brick 1 x 1 with Blue Capital Letter M Pattern (Serif Font)
* 
3005ptMs Brick 1 x 1 with Blue Capital Letter M Pattern (Serif Font)
Parts: Brick, Decorated
 
Part No: 3005pt0s  Name: Brick 1 x 1 with Blue Number 0 Pattern (Serif Font)
* 
3005pt0s Brick 1 x 1 with Blue Number 0 Pattern (Serif Font)
Parts: Brick, Decorated

Some use the word "Letter", some don't. Some letters are in apostrophes,
some (and numbers) aren't. The placement of the word "Pattern" is
also different.

Also, I wonder about the name of [P=3062bpb033]

It mentions the danish letter Ø, but the 3005pt*s parts don't mention any
of these special characters (ÆØÅÄ) which means that you can't search for
them. Also this part has the name "Stroke" instead of "Slash".

Please decide on a consistent naming. Other letter/number parts may need change
as well.

are (at least in some sets) distributed in pre-built stacks of
3. So even new parts have been built with and may show clear wear on studs and
underside. Consider mentioning this in a note, i.e. new parts are in fact used.

Part number 89954 seems to be an alternate part number for
 
Part No: 731c07  Name: Technic, Shock Absorber 6.5L with Black Piston Rod - Hard Spring, Tight Coils at Ends
* 
731c07 Technic, Shock Absorber 6.5L with Black Piston Rod - Hard Spring, Tight Coils at Ends
Parts: Technic, Shock Absorber
, so please
add it.

I ordered two red ones with PCC 6378481 and I can't see any difference compared
to two other yellow parts in my inventory that were added almost a year ago (I
don't remember their origin).

The cylinders have the same part no. (4255), I see no difference in the pump
and spring, and the part pushes back approx. the same according to my weight.

/Jan

P.S. The new part no. was previously mentioned here:

There are new molds for the

*

hinges. I found this out by ordering
an unknown PCC from pick-a-brick (I have added this now).

So

1) Please add part no. 80133 to
 
Part No: 2430  Name: Hinge Plate 1 x 4 Swivel Top
* 
2430 Hinge Plate 1 x 4 Swivel Top
Parts: Hinge
2) and part no. 80134 to
 
Part No: 2429  Name: Hinge Plate 1 x 4 Swivel Base
* 
2429 Hinge Plate 1 x 4 Swivel Base
Parts: Hinge

Also, consider adding part no. 80133c01 and 80134c01 to the assembly.

In the comparison image, the old 19952/19953 assembly is to the left.

It seems that I was not aware of the variants of the storage bins when I uploaded
photos some time ago, so please remove:

Primary blue image for [G=bin06a] and primary red and yellow images for [G=bin02a]

I already previously uploaded similar images to the correct parts. So no new
images should be added, just delete three wrong ones.

Something should be done about the part numbers, though. Currently the similar
ones (based on the print) are:

- bin02 and bin06a
- bin02a and bin06

I have added similar gear relations between the two sets of trays, but the part
numbers are VERY confusing.

I have identified two variants of
 
Part No: 3641  Name: Tire 15mm D. x 6mm Offset Tread Small
* 
3641 Tire 15mm D. x 6mm Offset Tread Small
Parts: Wheel, Tire & Tread
(none of them are 87414).

They can be identified by:

1) Larger inner diameter and mold pip on vertical edge of tread. Feels softer
when squeezed and is easier to fit on a wheel.
2) Smaller inner diameter and mold pip on horizontal edge of tread. Feels harder
when squeezed and is harder to fit on a wheel.

Please add a note to this part (my bet is you won't split it).
