I recently parted out

 
Set No: 75316  Name: Mandalorian Starfighter
* 
75316-1 (Inv) Mandalorian Starfighter
535 Parts, 3 Minifigures, 2021
Sets: Star Wars: Star Wars The Clone Wars

and it has a few of these:

 
Part No: 2341  Name: Slope, Inverted 45 3 x 1 Double
* 
2341 Slope, Inverted 45 3 x 1 Double
Parts: Slope, Inverted

I noticed while parting out that one looked like it had a nasty scratch on the
side. On closer inspection, it turned out to be the sprue mark! Really surprised
to find a slope with the sprue mark on the side in 2021.

I'm not sure what you are asking. I use the API extensively. What do you
mean by "store API address"?

Thank you for your kind words.

As a teenager we had a golden Labrador and she was a great loss back then, couldn’t
bring myself to have a dog after that.

My daughter decided to have Max when she had her own place, he spent some time
with us at one stage and we became best buddies.

He had a habit of lying on the back of the sofa behind you as you see in the
photo, now I’m reminded of why I wouldn’t have a dog all those years, can’t stand
losing them.

in your heart.

Take care and be well,

Jen

  Had the garage door open along with the side door in our shop while packing orders.
to help airflow this morning as it got up to 90 Fahrenheit and there's currently
no AC in the building.

Went to grab some bins near the door when I spot one of the cats creeping up.
She knows she's not allowed in. I stand there and glare, which is usually
enough to dissuade them. She looks at me, looks inside, then looks at me again.
Then she rebelliously shoots into the shop through the garage door and right
back out through the side door, as if mocking me.
It's a good things its a cute cat, that's all I have to say...

I took care of those this year.

Errr OK, in which direction ? Did the Racer become minifigs or did the Cars move
elsewhere ?

Nita Rae

 
Minifig No: 30599pb06  Name: Pulse
* 
30599pb06 Pulse
Minifigures: Racers: Xalax
 
Minifig No: 30598pb01  Name: Freeze

30598pb01 Freeze
Minifigures: Racers: Xalax
 
Minifig No: 30599pb01  Name: Chill
* 
30599pb01 Chill
Minifigures: Racers: Xalax

So, are you suggesting that I can move my Racers from custom lots (where they
have been languishing for a long time) to designated minifigures ?

[Spock] Fascinating [/Spock]

Nita Rae

I think it would be a safe move.

I also think if the character/figure is advertised on the box with the other
minifigs then it should be included Lego themselves are calling it a figure.

In the descriptions on their website, LEGO does not routinely use the word figure.
They use minifigure to mean things typically built from traditional minifigure
parts and character for other assemblies.

  Hi Fellow Lego enthusiasts,

I'd like to open a can of worms and state that Animals that are based on
Characters should be classed as Minifigures.

We now have "Brick Built" figures being included as Minifigures (EG: Unikitty
& Super Mario) However Animals that are Characters in their respective TV show
or Movie are considered Animals? (EG: Scooby Doo from Scooby Doo & Lotso the
Bear from Toy Story)

What are your thoughts?

Even LEGO is now confused as to what a minifigure is. Take a look at the press
release for their new Sonic the Hedgehog set, which hit fan sites yesterday.
Their press release refers to it containing five minifigures yet only one of
them has traditional torso and legs. Whereas they are more careful on their own
website, where they only refer to one minifigure.

That a great question. Here my thinking is anything that built by bricks should
be a mini build. an example of this is minifig sw0767 for example.


I don't see an issue with there being a category of Brick Built Figure and
encompassing that under the general "Minifigure" banner.
Examples of that being giant Ant Man and all of the Super Mario enemies.

I personally have a massive issue with we are now considering brick built characters
as minifigs however Animals are not!.
Also it's irritating looking at your collection in a digital setting and
it shows I own x number of Scooby sets but 0 Scooby Doo figures.

I also think if the character/figure is advertised on the box with the other
minifigs then it should be included Lego themselves are calling it a figure.

It happens in cities too.  And especially at this time of year, when there’s
more packages and they hire temps.
Less hassle to have the package lost or “porch stolen” than to bring it back.

It turns out that is what wheelie bins are for. Not rubbish, they are parcel
holders. One of my pre-Christmas deliveries was put in my neighbour's bin.

There is no excuse for that, but it is happening. So beware of some of the addresses
you get handed, by new buyers, and package delivery people who claim to have
delivered it. They may all be bupkis.

several days of fog. On it was an address that, had it existed, would have been

Like most all sellers here, I use electronic postage where the addresses get
verified and corrected by the payment service (Paypal) and the shipping provider's
software. So, every package I send out is easily accepted.

Just the other day, I took a stack of packages to the post office from my mother
with hand-written addresses (she was sending out copies of her second published
book to buyers -- congratulations, Mom). The postal clerk verified each
address before applying postage and even rejected one due to a bad address.
I was pretty surprised at all this; I had never experienced this. But, it seems
like a good way to prevent bad and fake addresses from causing problems and filling
up the "dead letter office" with undeliverable parcels.

As for lazy delivery personnel, there is a ravine in Alabama with space for more
packages to be dumped, so I have heard.

And there was this little incident reported in November;

Hundreds of FedEx packages were discovered in a ravine on private property in
Blount County, Alabama, on Wednesday (November 25).

  Hi Fellow Lego enthusiasts,

I'd like to open a can of worms and state that Animals that are based on
Characters should be classed as Minifigures.

We now have "Brick Built" figures being included as Minifigures (EG: Unikitty
& Super Mario) However Animals that are Characters in their respective TV show
or Movie are considered Animals? (EG: Scooby Doo from Scooby Doo & Lotso the
Bear from Toy Story)

What are your thoughts?

Even LEGO is now confused as to what a minifigure is. Take a look at the press
release for their new Sonic the Hedgehog set, which hit fan sites yesterday.
Their press release refers to it containing five minifigures yet only one of
them has traditional torso and legs. Whereas they are more careful on their own
website, where they only refer to one minifigure.

That a great question. Here my thinking is anything that built by bricks should
be a mini build. an example of this is minifig sw0767 for example.
