| | I don't know how hard what I'm asking for is, but I've had some fun
today tracking down "undetermined" variants in sets that I have from childhood.
I'm pretty close to mining it as far as I can go, but I would certainly
consider parting out some sets from eBay with the added interest in finding the
variants. Could we have a tool that would just identify a list of sets that
contain a piece of undetermined variant?

To access this feature, simply go to the Advanced Catalog Search page:
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogSearch.asp?v=C
and click "Show More Options". At the bottom of the first row of additional options
there is a filter for all items that have undetermined parts in their inventory.
For the purposes of this filter, an undetermined part is one that has the keyword
"undetermined" it its item name.
Very useful for those on a quest to find a truly undetermined part.

I found one once. It felt great.

I just saw your post.

It's a not widely known feature. This subject comes up occasionally on the
forum so I kept the link handy for moments like this.
Your Welcome.

This could be implemented perhaps with a search limit of up to 5 peices at a
time, or more depending on an acceptable level of load on the server.

| This site is already awesome. I've been finding some old sets that I had
long forgotten about, just by finding a few unique parts in our 30+ year old
box of lego still at my parent's house.
I found a wedge shaped classic space part in the box, and from that I was able
to find that it only existed in a few sets. From there, I was able to find the
Sonar Transmitting Cruiser, something that I would have completely forgotten
about had it not been for the uniqueness of that part. I was in fact, able to
rebuild it despite all the pieces being scattered about in the old lego table
for 30 years, with numerous visiting and grandchildren messing around with it
for all this time - with only 2 substituted parts.
Tl;Dr
Anyhow, on to the ACTUAL suggestion

| | Hi!
It would be nice to be able to filter the discussion forums to show topics started
by me.
I would like to see my Inventory Change Requests as it seems that the rejected
ones are deleted from my profile regularly. Some of them are rejected because
of the lack of proof and I would be able to do research for new proof for them
regularly.
Thanks,
Ádám
