and suggested adding "Maxifigure torso assembly" to the name, since that's
what I know it as; the term "maxifigure" I took from the hand:

But the term implemented was "Homemaker" instead of "Maxifigure".

It was done that way because

Is "Maxifigure" wrong? Shouldn't the name of the hand then be changed as
well?
And what about the arm?
I'd fill in catalogue suggestions myself, but I don't want to cause more
mess by mistake...

Well, I guess we need to decide what term is going to be used and then go one
way with all of them, or add both of them to all of them.
It would be nice to have other opinions on this. If we don't get anymore,
I will probably opt for having both names in the titles for everything.

| Hi,

That's how it already works for episodes 1 - 3 and 7 - 9.
The category "Minifigures: Star Wars Episode 4/5/6" includes *by far* the biggest
selection of minifigures in the whole category tree (currently 499).
Since the whole point of separate categories is to increase the handibility of
the interface and thus to create a positive user experience, the current organization
is besides the point.
That becomes especially true if you look e.g. at the category "Pirates I", which
inculdes 4 sub-categories, which include a total of 22 minifigures. Thus, user
navigation becomes unnecessarily complicated by increasing the number of total
objects in the category tree.
That really doesn't make any sense at all.
Please. Look. Think. Change. Thanks!

I was actually looking at this about two months ago due to some change requests.
My personal thinking was that Episode 1-3 and Episode 7-9 need to be combined
like Episode 4-6 instead of going the other way. In that scenario, it would be
easy for us admins to get it worked out, and it would cut down on the huge category
list that exists in the Star Wars area. But having to separate Episode 4-6 would
need a *lot* of help from a lot of other people besides the admins, because none
of us are Star Wars experts. This would include splitting up all sets, all minifigures,
all gear items, all books, etc., etc. The amount of work is huge. We obviously
won't be doing anything about this in any way without a lot of feedback from
the users, so don't expect to see anything happen in this area for some time.
Cheers,
Randy

| I see that does not have a weight listed in the catalog. I have an
open copy of that set that I could submit the weight for- is that something that
is allowed? It is highly unlikely for any users here to come across a sealed
copy of the set, and the difference in the original set's bags would be negligible,
but I want to make sure this isn't violating some rule.

Hi Ed
There was a red image there previously which was tiny so your image replaced
it.
Since there is no way of knowing what people really have listed under 3040p02
I don't think it's safe to remove the red image altogether at this time.

| You should consider adding 79806 too, with a note specifying the part has had
a mold variation in 2021 (maybe 2020, I've got some recent sets with old
mold and some with the new one). 79806 is indeed slighty different: the line
is broken at the base.
Or 79806 should be added as a new part with a "similar" relationship with 4205a.
Picture of new part from Lego Brick & Pieces is attached (I can also send picture
of real item if needed).

| Part number 53588pb01 is a raised baseplate piece in the color dark bluish gray
with red marbling. The entry lists this part being contained in 5 sets. Four
of which were released in the year 2006 and one in the year 2008. The last set
is called 'Coast Guard Patrol Boat & Tower'. I believe that the version
of this part from that set should have a separate entry (with part number 53588)
as it has no red marbling. The database on rebrickable already distinguishes
between these variations so I am not alone in considering them different in this
way.
Link to existing bricklink entry: https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=53588pb01#T=C
|
There was a thread on this a couple of years back. Bricklink used to distinguish
between the 4 items in Bionicle sets as being marbled and the one from 7739 as
being solid Dark Bluish Gray. However, I had purchased a dozen of the supposed
DBG versions, and all were marbled at least a little bit.
So at the behest of the inventory admin I sent messages to every seller who had
the item listed. We could not locate a single item that was solid DBG. Some have
a reddish color mixed in, others don't, but all were marbled -- and as
with many marbled pieces, the marbling is not consistent.
The "pictures" on Rebrickable are just renders, not actual photographs, and I
believe Rebrickable still lists that as a separate part for set 7739 only because
Bricklink used to, and Rebrickable has not updated the entry since the change
on Bricklink.
If you have evidence of a solid non-marbled Dark Bluish Gray 53588, please provide
clear pictures from every angle, including from the underside. Otherwise, this
seems to be an error from when 7739 was originally inventoried.
|
Upon further inspection, I have found red marbling on mine which I previously
assumed to be from the latter set. It is very minimal and hard to notice if not
in direct light but it is there. I suspected them all to be marbled but perhaps
some excluded red but no, that is not the case it seems.
Mine has a 2005 date underneath and I suspect they were all manufactured then.
I suppose I was just lucky to get an especially gray one and the official set
photos of 7739 mislead me.

There was a thread on this a couple of years back. Bricklink used to distinguish
between the 4 items in Bionicle sets as being marbled and the one from 7739 as
being solid Dark Bluish Gray. However, I had purchased a dozen of the supposed
DBG versions, and all were marbled at least a little bit.
So at the behest of the inventory admin I sent messages to every seller who had
the item listed. We could not locate a single item that was solid DBG. Some have
a reddish color mixed in, others don't, but all were marbled -- and as
with many marbled pieces, the marbling is not consistent.
The "pictures" on Rebrickable are just renders, not actual photographs, and I
believe Rebrickable still lists that as a separate part for set 7739 only because
Bricklink used to, and Rebrickable has not updated the entry since the change
on Bricklink.
If you have evidence of a solid non-marbled Dark Bluish Gray 53588, please provide
clear pictures from every angle, including from the underside. Otherwise, this
seems to be an error from when 7739 was originally inventoried.

Upon further inspection, I have found red marbling on mine which I previously
assumed to be from the latter set. It is very minimal and hard to notice if not
in direct light but it is there. I suspected them all to be marbled but perhaps
some excluded red but no, that is not the case it seems.
Mine has a 2005 date underneath and I suspect they were all manufactured then.
I suppose I was just lucky to get an especially gray one and the official set
photos of 7739 mislead me.

I am always happy to help answer questions about catalog contributions!
If you would like to add this inventory to the BrickLink catalog, all the links
you need are on the Add or Change tab.
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogAdd.asp?utm_content=subnav
Choose Add Inventory: - Set
The data from LEGO is available for this set, so you only need to use the Manual
Add function and edit the data using the form.
If you would still prefer to use the XML, the upload tool is on that same page.
It's not quite as user-friendly but still works just fine.

I did it by using the standard form. But when I click on « Submit Request »,
it opens up to me a blank page and indicate that there is server issue.
So, that's why I posted on the forum
Thanks 😀

By the way, the stock images for 60614 has misleading details: the big rounded
hinge pins. Does anyone actually have one of these or is it just another bad
render from LEGO? The actual photos of this part match the parts I have in hand
molded with 60614.

I agree with you. It is a variant. Please mention the year of first (known) use
AND the different design numbers in the note for future reference.

Now molded 48461. I can't see an important difference between them, which
is lucky because according to Brickset we've had them mixed for several years
without acknowledging it.
