If you read the text at the bottom of the current catalog image, it says "NOT
FINALLY APPROVED BY LICENSOR - FOR SALES MATERIAL ONLY"
That makes me think that the current catalog image is a prototype image and not
the actual book cover that made it to publishing.
Cheers,

it took me forever to see the difference, one with belt and one without belt.
Does it make sense to mention belt/no belt in their names?

| | My question is how would I put it in my store on bricklink. Thanks adam

Hi Adam,
My counsel would be to add the part to your store inventory as follows:
1. Click "My Store Add Item".
2. Category is "Minifigure, Headgear".
3. I'm unsure if your helmet has "Thin" or "Thick" chinstrap. Refer to the
attached image from the BrickLink catalog; you should be able to determine chinstrap
type from this:
- If it is "Thin", then your helmet is likely 193a2 (Minifigure, Helmet Old
with Thin Chinstrap - with Visor Dimples) or
- If it is "Thick", then your helmet is likely 193b2 (Minifigure, Helmet Old
with Thick Chinstrap - with Visor Dimples) or
- Another way you could list it is as 193au, which simply indicates that the
presence of visor dimples is undetermined. Many of the "undetermined" catalog
entries are marked for deletion, but this one isn't (for the time being ).
4. Under Comments is where you would tell potential buyers about any anomalies
regarding this item; in this instance (for example): - Note: Helmet only has
dimple on left side.
5. Complete the rest of the required criteria (Quantity, Price Each, etc.)
6. Click "Review Item"; edit if necessary or "Add to Inventory".
Hope that this helps you.
- Bond

that only have one dimple. I have 30 of them all blue with the dimple on the
right side. They are not teeth marks. These helmets all are in great shape some
most never been on a minifig.

@StormChaser: I used Americanisms throughout. If you want a cut 'n paste
copy with HTML mark-up (with no footnotes) then message me your email and I will
send it to you.
This was more difficult than I had anticipated, and took a lot of research, writing
and re-writing, checking over and checking over again, and so on. However, it
is the start of what will probably be a great series of discussions, so I will
not be offended if any or all of the above work is changed/removed/obliterated,
etc.
There were places I could have written reams of information, but I realised this
was not part of the remit. Hwever, I had to provide some footnotes to keep my
insanity and know where I was confused or had difficulty in providing a definition.
Footnotes:
1 There are no items in the catalogue under the 'Legacy' category.
2 The term ‘magnet’ has two meaning, in this case.
3 Set does not fit into the 'Mini' category!
4 Hair can be shared between ‘minifig’ and ‘minidoll’ see
5 The complete assembly characters (like the goblins) fit in the second
part of the definition of this category.
6 Hair can be shared between ‘minifig’ and ‘minidoll’ see

10 There is no ’Modulex Tile’ category!?
11 This is more of a ‘tag’ than a category.
12 There are four sets ; ; ; and,
in this category.
a It always makes me giggle when I see the use of the word (and forms
of the word) ‘mold’ or ‘mould’, particularly in the context of bricks, as we
are talking here. Imagine the term “molded design” as a brick designed to carry
a fungi ecosystem on it, rather than a plastic heat- and pressure-formed designed
shape.
Since the English language is unique to most languages of the world being that
it is has freedom to form and re-form, lets now refine the words mold and mould.
Right here goes: ‘mold’ is a “frame for shaping something”; and, ‘mould’
is “a furry growth of minute fungi”. I will inform Mariam-Webster and
Oxford of the changes they need to make to their dictionaries.

It was all intense though, I actually enjoyed finishing this work (didn’t enjoy

@StormChaser: I used Americanisms throughout. If you want a cut 'n paste
copy with HTML mark-up (with no footnotes) then message me your email and I will
send it to you.
This was more difficult than I had anticipated, and took a lot of research, writing
and re-writing, checking over and checking over again, and so on. However, it
is the start of what will probably be a great series of discussions, so I will
not be offended if any or all of the above work is changed/removed/obliterated,
etc.
There were places I could have written reams of information, but I realised this
was not part of the remit. Hwever, I had to provide some footnotes to keep my
insanity and know where I was confused or had difficulty in providing a definition.
Footnotes:
1 There are no items in the catalogue under the 'Legacy' category.
2 The term ‘magnet’ has two meaning, in this case.
3 Set does not fit into the 'Mini' category!
4 Hair can be shared between ‘minifig’ and ‘minidoll’ see
5 The complete assembly characters (like the goblins) fit in the second
part of the definition of this category.
6 Hair can be shared between ‘minifig’ and ‘minidoll’ see
7 Second part was to be split out under discussion ‘Minifigure, Head,
Faceless’ (1010)

|
| Hello,
I remember having the 8862 Backhoe version 1 when I was young and I still have
a couple of yellow top pneumatics. I rebuilt this old set with black top pneumatics
which would make it version 2, with instructions. That being said, I have been
unable to find an entry for the old version which is slightly different to the
one on Bricklink, it turns out the manuals were different (when adding electronic
motors).
My questions are:
Does Bricklink have versions of sets that would make the 8862 entry more correct?
It is currently a mix of old and new.
Does anyone have a 8862 Backhoe PDF instructions of the old version 1 that I
can have or buy? The usual websites only have version 2 but I want to have the
older one.
Thank you.

This assembly can’t be New: you have assembled the parts yourself, that’s the
definition of Used.

Rubbish, putting two brand new, unused parts together does not make them used.
I list the assembly as new if the parts came from a sealed set

You assembled the parts. That's literally the definition of what makes them
used (previously assembled). You can't build a set and then sell it as 'new,
only assembled once'. There was a big argument a few years ago about whether
stacking bricks/plates at the Pick-A-Brick wall made them 'used' instead
of 'new' (my opinion is yes). There's also the argument that minifigs
can't be sold as 'new' if they are assembled (I'm on the fence
about this one).

I personally think that assembled hinges can be marked as new because they have
not been taken apart and if a buyer wants separated parts, they can order them
separately. Maybe there should be an option for marking the condition of inventories
as "new but assembled".

I'd say used, as there is the possibility of damage when opening it. Of course,
you could test it by applynig power to it, but that makes it used. There will
also be minor wear on the screws, just like clicking two bricks together and
unclicking them causes wear and makes them used.

| | | You assembled the parts. That's literally the definition of what makes them
used (previously assembled). You can't build a set and then sell it as 'new,
only assembled once'. There was a big argument a few years ago about whether
stacking bricks/plates at the Pick-A-Brick wall made them 'used' instead
of 'new' (my opinion is yes). There's also the argument that minifigs
can't be sold as 'new' if they are assembled (I'm on the fence
about this one).
|
Just to correct that, the argument about minifigures is can a seller assemble
them and still call them new. There is no argument about can a minifigure be
new if it is assembled - the answer is clearly yes, as in some cases LEGO sells
assembled minifigures and by definition those assembled minifigures can be new
as that is how they were sold.

Well, the definition says New should have been manipulated for sorting only.
Opening isn’t sorting… unless you sort by production date
Now, it’s about screws, not clicking plastic parts, so it’s less “Used” than,
say, removing arms from a torso, but some may see it as “Used” nonetheless.

My bad, Robert. I forgot that those sections were the "work in progress" ones.
The section that I was referencing about minifigures being added to the catalog
in your new version contains the same basic information as the old version but
worded in a much friendlier way. Therefore, everything that I posted is not

I think you are not asking for what we ultimately want, perhaps because you are
aware that it is as far as we can get without the programmers getting involved.
What we ultimately want is to be able to put alternates into minifig inventories.
There are quite a LOT of minifigs the last few years that come with a hair and
a hat, usually pictured somewhere with each. I think it would clutter things
up a lot. Look at [s-60134-1] and . They have a certain way they
are designed to go, but the instructions show some pictures of them all mixed
and matched, legs, torsos, heads and hair. They each have 15 minifigs. How
many variants does that inventory need to have in it?

Your opinion has been noted and future admin teams may decide to go in that direction.
However, the current admin team on both the catalog and inventory sides had discussions
and agreed on how to proceed in this situation. I do not see that changing for
the foreseeable future.
| | I understand the Bricklink catalog follows the instructions and that is a good

There are a few other situations like this that I know of from my personal collection.
In all of those cases, the current guidelines that are in place were followed
in the catalog and subsequently the inventories. So, for now, it makes sense
to keep things consistent with the guidelines to keep the catalog consistent.
| | To me the hair seems off on the dad and he's not shown that way either.

First of all, you are assuming that it is a dad, but I do to. What is not an
assumption is that he *is* shown that way in one version of the instructions:
https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1117220
| | Nor is it logical that a minifig has an extra piece to make a marginally different

Since when was LEGO logical? They already had *two* attempts at this, and

is not the way they intended it? Third time's a charm?

As I stated above, at least for the foreseeable future, the answer is "yes".
If Robert, Ronald and Maggie want to add this topic to the Catalog Roadmap, then
I don't see why it could not be considered. I would not expect it to have
any sort of large priority, though.

Many questions come up in the forum to identify minifigures that have the wrong
hands, the wrong arms, the wrong legs, the wrong head, the wrong hair, etc. Such
is the nature of LEGO parts; they get played with and mixed up all the time.
Sellers are free to sell those minifigures as "customs", but it behooves them
to find a closely related minifigure in the catalog to sell under and either
sell it as incomplete or fix the minifigure they have to match the one in the

Yes, there will need to be some kind of organization of them going forward, but
this section is a test run and could be considered in the "beta" stage. The catalog

do with this section. Right now, they are monitoring how well these entries actually
get used and how well they sell.

They are listed there because the catalog admins would not allow them as minifigures,
yet users in the past have asked repeatedly for them to be included in the catalog.
This new section was a compromise. It is possible that someday the characters
in this section will be relocated to a new catalog section.

| I just noticed the mask that is described with a "4 hole chin", is not the chin
area. The holes are actually on the opposite end of what I would call the 'chin'
area of the mask.
and similarly the the 6 hole mask
[p=44815]
Or is this the reason the default images are upside down so the holes can be
referred to like a chin?

| I am embarking on an ambitious project to create written definitions of every
single category in the BrickLink catalog. This has never been done before, although
Dan made a start here:
https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=1568
I realize now that it was never done because it's a massive amount of work.
Even coding the page is taking me a while, but I have the first eight letters
in the alphabet done:
https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=2479
I am absolutely going to need help with these definitions and, since you'll
be the ones most affected by category definitions, who better to ask?
Please read very carefully:
1. Descriptions should be short, but complete. I'm not looking for a legal
definition, but also don't want something vague and ambiguous - the point
of these definitions is so that we can easily and completely see what fits into
a category. Creating short, accurate, complete descriptions may tax your writing
ability, but I believe it is possible for every category. Focusing on accurate
descriptions rather than listing exclusions would be best.
2. Yes, my list is not structured like Dan's. His focuses on readability
while mine focuses more on functionality. This page, to my mind, exists to serve
a purpose, like a dictionary, and not to entertain or greatly inform. My page
is more of a reference we can all use as necessary and the alphabetical order
should make it easy to quickly locate information. So I've given this structure
some thought and I'm not too interested in restructuring the page.
3. Limit descriptions to one or two reasonably short sentences. My goal
is to get everything onto one line without breaks between categories. You can
see that the Years category at the top approaches the limit in length. If we
absolutely can't accomplish this for some categories, then we're stuck
with exceptions - but let's shoot for this goal.
4. Please do not post every five minutes with new definitions. Pick the section
below you're going to work on and create all the definitions for that
section. Then post back here with your complete list. I recommend doing this
in MS Word or some other word processing software to avoid losing data. You
may claim any of these sections already unclaimed:
1st Section: A, B, C, D, E
2nd Section: F, G, H, I, J
3rd Section: K, L, M, N, O
4th Section: P, Q, R, S, T
5th Section: U, V, W, X, Y
Ignore the letter Z - I'll get that out of the generosity of my heart.
5. Some of these definitions will require research. For parts, look over the
categories carefully and try to completely understand why they're structured
like they are before defining them. For sets, do enough research to present
a quality definition. Some categories are repetitious, so try to include slightly
differing information for each one (years, for example). An example of repetitious
categories are the Dimensions Wave 1-9. I'm defining every category except
for years for the sake of consistency.
6. Completely ignore decorated categories. There are 33, I think, and I will
create definitions for them.
7. We will have discussion about these categories later. First we need to get
definitions in place and then, later, we can all discuss together if the definitions
need improvements. So there should, in theory, only be 10 replies to this post:
five category claims and five category section definitions.
8. I will edit your definitions as I see necessary. Save your definitions somewhere
(shouldn't be a problem if you're writing them in word processing software)
and we can discuss later if you think I've butchered any of them beyond your
liking.
Okay, that's all I can think of. This will be work, but I can't imagine
doing this all on my own. So assistance is deeply appreciated and I wish I could
do more for you than just appreciate it.

Yes, I remember. There's really only one fix for that: someone will have
to buy the books and photograph the bags. These kinds of sets wouldn't appear
in any catalog because the book must be opened to see them. Once we have photos,
then the sets will be quickly approved.
We're moving away from approving any submission which is not accompanied
by an image and I expect that will become firm policy within the next six months
or so.
There are simply too many items in the catalog completely missing images:
3 minifigures
29 sets
106 catalogs
108 books
133 gear
575 parts
|
Of the parts, over 200 of them are from the Modulex Decorated Tile category.
If we can't find images for those and there are no listings or wanted list
entries, I suggest we do a little pruning.
|
Why would you want to do that?
I agree that it would be better to have images, but why would anyone want to
remove information from our database unless the parts do not actually exist?
There are better solutions than deleting items.
|
If, with all the resources we have on BrickLink (and by "resources" I mean people
with knowledge and extensive collections), we can't generate an image or
at least some interest in an item during a period of over 9 years, there is serious
doubt in my mind if that item does actually exist.
I'm saying this specifically concerning Modulex, because I believe many of
those entries were created based on their presence in a catalog from which special
orders could be placed. If no one ever ordered a certain font in a certain color,
would these letter tiles ever have been produced?

It's fairly easy.
For any part that is stickered, you will need to find the numerical identifier
of the last one to be issued, and for that, I use the add an image section to
find it.
Have 3 tabs up,
1st is the catalogue.
2nd is Add an image section
3rd is Add a Part section.
Say that you want to add a stickered 45deg 1x2 slope.
|
This can be done easier using the * search wildcard.
| | Find the highest number of that particular part you can quickly find.
input that number in the add image box, and it should show that part in a description.
Cycle through numbers by 10 until you get an error, and then decrease the numbers
until you then get a description, and you can then increase by 1 to get the next
sequential number.
|
The undecorated slope has part number 3040.
Decorated slopes will have an additional number, all recent numbers will use
pb to indicate the "pattern numbered by BrickLink" like 3040pb000.
Knowing this, I would search the catalog for 3040pb*.
Then imply sort by item number.
That will make it easy to find the highest number currently in the catalog.
A search for that number +1 will show if that part is available, or if a part
with that number is pending approval.
| |
Take a reasonable good picture of the part, preferably in daylight, or under
multiple lights, to eliminate shadows, and resize the pic to a Thumbnail on the
PC. (upload the picture, but don't submit the image yet)
Go to the add part section.
Add the number and identifier to the necessary boxes, along with the dimensions,
weight and such.
Use the same description(s) that other like parts have been added to the catalogue
before, and try to be accurate as possible.
Add the part to the catalogue.
Go back to the image section, and when you click on the verify , it should bring
up the item that you have just submitted, and you can then submit the corresponding
image.
I've done this with some of my mug collection, and will be doing others soon.
Have fun!

Yes. Few people would ever read through all those 2,700 words before submitting
an item to the catalog, nor should they have to.
That's not to say it isn't necessary to have rules, because it is. But
that particular page desperately needs to be simplified to the salient points
along with clear, simple guidelines for completing the form. The minutiae can
be moved elsewhere.
The entire Catalog Help Center needs a makeover. There are too many topics and
some of them have not been updated in forever. I was going to work on other
things today, but I've been putting this off for too long.

The idea in the past was that if you approved an item then eventually someone
would add a picture. That approach sort of works - sort of. I, for one, am
tired of seeing that we are missing 6,000+ images and that number* will only
keep growing if we don't stop it now.
*To be fair, instructions and boxes don't count as much because they're
created for all sets. Still, 950+ missing images are nothing in which to take
pride. If you look through the list of items missing images, you will see a
fair number of things for sale - clearly we need to do better at rewarding contributors.

I might be able to get pictures of some of the missing Star Wars boxes and instructions.
I just took a peek at what was missing and my inventory says I have at least
a few of them.

The word "design" means "decorative pattern."
If we wanted to be truly accurate and consistent, then every single part title
would have one of the eight following identifiers:
Plain
Printed Design
Stickered Design
Printed/Stickered Design
Molded Design
Molded/Printed Design
Molded/Stickered Design
Molded/Stickered/Printed Design (pretty sure there are none of those)
Have I missed any? Maybe when/if we get tags we can do this. I think it would
be helpful.
But it sounds like "Decorated" is the preferred term so far from all three commentors.
I still think it's quite strange that part categories are the only place
we use that word, but this ain't a one-man show.
|
Now that you bought up the subject of stickers.... Is there a possibility of
adding sub categories for each type of patterned part so as to separate printed
parts from applied sticker parts? So that whenever there are stickers applied
by the end user on parts verses patterns applied directly by Lego on the same
type of part then there would be a sub category for the sticker applied parts
to keep them seperate.
This would be extremely helpful for adding used inventory into our stores. A
good example would be printed tiles verses sticker applied tiles. If you know
that a part you are trying to add to your inventor is a Lego printed tile then
it would be so much easier to find it in the catalog if the stickered tiles were
in a separate sub category of the printed tiles.
I know it would be a lot of work but it sure would be nice.
Jim

Every stickered part has either "Sticker" or "Stickers" in the name. Just run
a search for the part you want followed by "-sticker*" (without the quotes).
So to search all 2x2 tiles for just printed ones, you would run a search for
"3068b* -sticker*" (without the quotes):
https://www.bricklink.com/v2/search.page?q=3068b*+-sticker*&brand=1000&rpp=100&tab=P#T=P

Paul, while I sincerely appreciate and value your input here, your making my
point. That process is nuts!!! It just furthers my point. IT has to be simplified
in order to be a useable tool. Again, this is not a knock on Paul, nor intended
to be offensive. I just really want to help, like many others, and the current
process takes way too much figuring out to be useful. I think we need to enlist
the Brickstock creator to come to the rescue on this.

weight and such.
Use the same description(s) that other like parts have been added to the catalogue
before, and try to be accurate as possible.
Add the part to the catalogue.
Go back to the image section, and when you click on the verify , it should bring
up the item that you have just submitted, and you can then submit the corresponding
image.
I've done this with some of my mug collection, and will be doing others soon.
Have fun!

If everything in a decorated category has pattern in the title, it becomes useless
for searching if you restrict searches to that category.

Something is necessary in the title because not everyone goes to categories first.
Sometimes people just want to find all the 2 x 2 bricks with a pattern. That's
the whole point of having a search feature and the search feature is only as
good as item titles.
Ideally, as you pointed out, we would be able to tag things for the purpose of
searching and we could have more reasonable item titles.
