| Hello everybody,
I have created a part with stickers that are not yet in my catalog and a new
minifigure that is currently available in Germany directly in the store to buy
Nothing has been released so far, so I wanted to ask if I did something wrong?

| It appears that there were 2 versions of the instructions with different cover
page orientations - 1 landscape and 1 portrait.
Perhaps this has happened a lot. First time I've noticed it.
See image.
How is this addressed in the Bricklink inventory catalog - or should it be?

| NJO399 and NJO 410.
Just wondering if these should be moved to the ninjago minifigure category instead
of the junior category.
Just thinking someone looking for Ninjago wouldn’t look under Junior to find
them.
Also if someone can tell me how to list them so the link and photo appears it
would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

|
| Some torsos have "ammunition belt" in their description and others "bandolier".
My personal vote is "ammunition belt". It makes it difficult to find a torso
in the catalog when you don't know the character or theme.
For example: "Torso Pharaoh's Quest Tan Waistcoat, White Shirt, Bandolier
and Silver Buckle Pattern (Jake Raines) / Tan Arms / Yellow Hands" (973pb0781c01)
"Torso Monster Fighters with Ammunition Belt Pattern / Dark Tan Arms / Yellow
Hands" (973pb1113c01)
These two items are similar-looking.

|
| Apologies in advance if this is the wrong forum to post this in. I did a search
for 'set weight' in the forums and couldn't find anything addressing
this question.
How are the weight of sets derived? Does a submitter weigh the sealed set on
a scale and enter weight or is it automatically calculated by the inventory submitted?
I've purchased sealed sets 2nd hand over the years and they never seem to
weigh what is listed on BL. I've read recent posts about sellers finding
sealed sets purchased in stores as "new" only to find their contents were replaced.
I decided to check several sealed sets in our inventory, some purchased at chain
stores, others purchased at LEGO stores or SAH, and NONE of them match what was
listed on BL. On smaller sets they have been as close as +/- 2 grams off, but
on mid-size sets (200-400 pieces), I've seen them off up to +/- 30 grams
This has happened with two different scales, so not sure it is an issue with
an inaccurate scale especially considering the sets we are weighing aren't
always lighter than what is listed on BL, but sometime higher too. I also listed
a boat weight that BL shows as 49.69 grams and our scale wavers between 49 &
50 grams, so it seems to be accurate.
Could the package weight be different depending on country? (an inventory is
submitted by someone in EU and their packaging weighs less??)
I want to list some of these 2nd hand sets that appear to be sealed as "new-sealed"
but don't feel comfortable at the moment given these discrepancies between
what we show as weight and what BL says is the weight.

|
| Hello,
I was looking to define some missing parts dimensions.
With standard bricks, it's easy, but how do we define dimensions when parts
are not standard?
Maybe I miss something, but I didn't find the rules there:
https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=261
For example:
The size is [2 x 4 x 2] or [2 x Y x 2] ?
The size is [2 x 5 x 2] or [2 x 4 x 2] ?
The size is [2 x 6] or [2 x 4] ?
[p=bb73]
The size is [4 x 4] or [Y x Y x Y] ?
PS: I put "Y" in my examples, because I don't have the parts in front of
me.

|
| As I keep my inventory in a custom database which uses the BL parts and categories
as core data, I was wondering if there is a way to download the "Item Relationships"
as a CSV file.
Currently I am working on a way to complete MOCs from my existing inventory.
This means I load a "wanted list" for the MOC into my system and then I get an
output of which of my lots match the items on that list. As my inventory is carefully
maintained reflecting all part variants I only get the exact same part into my
list. For my MOCs I do often not care which part I am using.
E.g. if I have some on my wanted list, it would be nice to show also
the I might have in my inventory.
To implement this functionality I would like to use the BL Item Relationship
"Similar Parts with Different Molds".
Unfortunately I cannot find a way to download this information as raw data.
Any Idea other than entering these manually?
Thank you very much!

| Hey! I'm fairly new to this, I inventoried the Apocalypseburg Unikitty (comcon057-1)
and noticed that there were pieces from that set that now have official item
numbers (since they're in sets like 70831)
So, I'm wondering if I should update them? Below is a list of the items that
have updated Item Numbers that I've found (Source: manual for 70831)
• 3623pb018 (1x3 plate above Unikitty's face) is 6253938
• 4490pb13 (1x3 brick arch body) is 6253946
• 42859pb01 (spiky Unikitty tail) is 6253956
I'm now noticing that these item numbers all begin with "62539".... is this
something that I should udpate? I fear that if i don't, there will be double
listings for the above items.
Thanks!

Is this supposed to be the entry for the complete set of 12 unique Unikitty collectible
minifigs? This whole entry is very confusing. The name says "complete random
set" and also "1 minifigure". The inventory shows 12 unique figs. Which is
it: a random set of 12? One random figure? A complete set of all the figs?
The price guide doesn't help much: the average prices seem too low for a
set of 12 and too high for a single fig. Judging by the individual prices it
appears that some sellers are treating this entry as a single random fig and
others are treating it as a a set of 12.
Am I better off creating a super lot if I want to sell a complete set of 12?

|
| Hello,
Let's say a minifig is inventoried with a b-blocked style head.
Would a minifig assembly be considered complete if it has the alternate head
c-hollow style given that the this style head is technically only an alternate
part for the set inventory that the minifig came in and not the minifig itself.
Some minifig entries have a note saying something like: "This minifigure has
been found with both the 'b' and 'c' style head."
I would consider it complete, but I could see an OCD collector expecting the
'correct' head style per the BL figure assembly. Even if 'correct'
is just arbitrarily which ever style was found by the first user when adding
to the catalog.
Obviously, this only applies to figures produced during the great transition
period.

| Author: | mfav | | Posted: | Jan 7, 2019 20:04 | | Subject: | Catalog Guidelines: Minifig Heads | | Viewed: | 96 times | | Topic: | Catalog | | Status: | Open | |
|
| I would like to suggest the following catalog guidelines for minifig head part
3626.
issues
1. Need to distinguish between 1-sided print and 2-sided print
2. Need to distinguish between things with faces and things without faces.
- 2.1 Need to distinguish between things with 1 face and things with 2 faces.
3. Need to distinguish between things that are heads and things that are not
heads.
4. Want to note stud type.
5. Need to note identifying attributes.
methodology
1. Fixed values: 1-sided print, 2-sided print.
- Might consider another value (top-print) for things like Avatar heads which
are printed around the stud. Or maybe not necessary and could be noted in attributes.
Anyway, fixed values here to aid search.
2. Fixed values: single-faced, dual-faced, no-face.
3. Fixed values: head, pattern
- I expect some shrieking about the pattern attribute, but if all decorated pieces
are separated from plain pieces at the category level, the need for "pattern"
as an identifier becomes moot. Thus "pattern" can be used to distinguish between
a "head" and a "not-head".
4. Existing scheme (blocked open, hollow, solid) seems satisfactory
5. Attributes should be considered by their side count and face count and presented
consistently. For any single-sided piece a straight description is fine. For
faces, I'd recommend a top-down scheme for consistency: hair, eyebrows, eyes,
mouth, scars/marks, whiskers. For two-sided, single-faced heads I'd start
with the character name if it exists, followed by Front, followed by Back. For
two-faced heads I'd start with the character name if it exists, followed
by side1 attributes, separate with a slash, side2 attributes. Color values would
precede attributes in "readable English" fashion, thus "brown hair" and not "hair,
brown".
Complete naming convention would be sequenced as follows: Attributes, Sides,
Faces, Type, Stud. This sequencing allows for the unique traits to
appear first, which is likely preferable to having those listed last for a number
of reasons.
2-side, 1-face Example:
Green Goblin. Front: Balaclava, Heavy brown eyebrows, black eyes white highlight,
smirk, dimples, cleft chin. Back: three black scalloped lines blue highlight.
2-sided print, single-faced head, blocked open stud.
2-side, 2-face Example:
Robot. Silver eyebrows, Lime eyes white highlight, clenched teeth, scuffs, rivets
/ Silver eyebrows, lime eyes white highlight, closed mouth, scuffs, rivets. 2-sided
print, dual-faced head, hollow stud.
Note 1: I have a personal prejudice against labelling every head that is not
"human" as "alien". I'd prefer to see additional terms such as "robot" and
perhaps "animal" where appropriate; these terms would also facilitate search.
Note 2: It would facilitate consistent data entry to have a part-specific data
entry form available on the site. The form would include any fixed values as
popup or radio selectors, generous fields for entry of attributes, and an image
or images with callouts to provide visual assistance and reference for the contributor.
Guidelines for data entry should be included on the form itself and not require
leaving the form to locate guideline information elsewhere.
Visualization attached.

At least one of mine is in Randy's gallery, a number of other people's
images are in Jen's gallery...it goes on.
I have a suspicion there's some other related gremlin somewhere in the works,
but I can't fathom it other than to note that sometimes the large images
are also somehow awry.
Example:
https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?id=66490#T=C&C=10
The dbg image accessed via the popup is mine, and credited to me.
The gray image accessed via the popup is NOT mine, and credited to me...or at
least appears to be...or cannot be determined.
Sometimes
https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page
(with no color specified for the part) on entering the page, the large image
space is empty, other times it's populated with (I guess) a default image.
https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=41855#T=C
I see a default (medium blue?) image, and at the bottom of the page I get a credit
for a large image. The red image here is mine, this blue one is not.
https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=30358#T=C&C=2
This one defaults with a small white straked image (no color selected), I get
credit for the large image.
I thought the attribution dynamically changed on this page when you changed the
selected color of the piece from the popdown, but right now I can't find
where that's happening...but it may be effected with some pieces and not
others. In any event, the behavior on this page is inconsistent and seems to
have something to do with whether or not there's a "default" small image...which
is probably a misnomer. For example, as far as I can tell there are no "small"
images for
* | | 650 Hinge Coupling Nylon - Two Connected 2 x 2 Plates
Parts: Hinge |
Can't figure out how to back-trace any of these pictures to their creators...
...hmm...guessing that the large image attribution is for whatever image occupies
that second vertical thumbnail position there...
Some of this might just be a UI problem where something isn't coded properly,
and with the 53588pb01 I doubt there is a gray version at all, just a dbg (this
was hashed about in the forum not too long ago).
Anyway, I've spent about as much time as I care to looking at this issue.
All I really know is something or things has gone wrong somewhere, and I suggest
you want to sort it out before any more images get put into the system and possibly
mispositioned.
Also, I don't want to be wrongly credited for someone else's contribution.
That's just not right.
You and the StormChaser may want to consider holding off adding any new images
until you can sort out what's going on.

The picture for this fig is wrong. 1st her head sucks in comparison to what's
shown (but not really the point here).
2nd and most importantly, she needs at least the clear neck piece, if not the
full wing assembly
This fig has special shoulder armor that has some studs on the back for the other
pieces.

Not a picture issue:
[m=ow014]
This one is up to the admins. The 1st assembly shown in instructions is the
standard w/ legs. I think this version is a good addition to the catalog, but
it may not fit the catalog policies.

If this is human error, that's one thing. If there are systemic issues or

There are two versions of this part where the small hole by the base varies
in location, mirrored left or right side.
This can be seen in the new carousel where it seems Lego tried to include 24/24
(I got 23/25) of each type, so that the holes wouldn't be visible.

...
sw988 - a - normal storm trooper head (male) with belt part ... like in batman

sw988 - b - sunken eyes no belt. (outside same as others minus the belt)
sw988 - c - mad face no belt. (outside same as others minus the belt)

|
| Hello,
I own the 2017 version of 9005008 (in 24-Hour format)
While I'm looking for size and weight of parts it look that my parts for
the Watch are not the same weight and size as catalog items.
For example:
bbw001
Mine: 1.8 x 1.0 x 0.41 for 0.2g
Catalog: 2.25 x 1.25 for 0.33g
bbw002:
Mine: 1.8 x 1.7 x 0.4 for 0.3g
Catalog: 2.25 x 2.25 cm for 0.51g
it look like my Watch from 2017 is smaller than watch from 2013
I'm pretty sure for the size of my parts, I'm using an electronic caliper
And a balance accurate to 0.1 g
What do you think?

|
| We have long needed a relationship match that shows items which fit together
and which are frequently used together. I have asked for this type of match
in the past and have gotten nowhere.
Instead, these kinds of matches were added as paired parts even though they did
not fit the spirit or definition of that match (and the sentence "Exceptions
to these definitions are determined at administrative discretion." was added
to the Item Relationships definitions page). Some examples of items currently
matched as paired parts:
* | | 44225 Technic Rotation Joint Disk with Large Pin and 3L Liftarm Thick
Parts: Technic |
* | | 44224 Technic Rotation Joint Disk with Large Pin Hole and 3L Liftarm Thick
Parts: Technic |
In my ongoing struggle to make the world a better place, generally speaking,
by addressing first-world problems of the lowest magnitude, we now have a new
relationship match:
Parts that Fit Together
Shows parts that naturally fit together which are designed to work together
and which are nearly always used together as a single unit.
If anyone sees where this definition could be improved, then please let me know.
Otherwise, start sending me some new item relationships and let's see how
well this works. I've added a few to get us started and here is one of them
so you can see how it looks:

I was sorting through a lot of Lego and came across an assembled item (with a
sticker holding it together). I was happy to find it in the catalog: BA43pb02
However, it seems marked for deletion. And it doesn't seem to be included
in any set.
Could you give me more info about this item and the reason it is marked for deletion?
I would believe it was a custom item, until I found it in a lot myself... What

|
| I've seen a post in the eurobricks forum which a states that the extra parts
section here on bricklink is changing. Please do not make this change. Extra
parts in sets can vary during production, and will sometimes vary from region
to region. These extra parts do not represent a complete set, nor are those pieces
required to complete a set. If you feel the need to somehow show a difference
between a complete model and a "complete as shipped" set, maybe you should add
a tic box option for that in listings for those few who only consider a set complete
if it has the parts exactly the same as the few people who verified the inventory
of the set they received.

|
| Hi
I just bought used that was almost complete. But I noticed that the
four baseplates seems to have been custom made from a larger baseplate,
because the two sides are clearly a lighter shade of green (I guess this is where
the cuts have been made), and that three corners are not round, but have been
trimmed to give a rounded look.
Are these homemade, or it is possible that LEGO produced these plates from larger
plates (e.g. 1x 16x32 into 4x 8x16) in the late 70's to save the price of
making a 8x16 baseplate mold?

| 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.

| I just recently noticed that there is a new category type: Special Assembly.
While I see this as a truly useful idea, I want to make sure of the constraints
about it. Because, if the first 18 examples are good to go by, this is going
to be a completely insane mess. Which is fine by me. But, before I add to the
madness, I want to make sure of the rules so I don't make anything unnecessarily
worse.
Thank you!
Oh, follow-up question: Why are the big-figs of Ares and Giant Man (and Groot
for that matter) listed as Special Assemblies. If anything, they should be put
in the Minifigures/Figures category instead, right? They are all actual characters
with names and everything. Shouldn't they be moved?
Again, thank you!

| Author: | StormChaser | | Posted: | Nov 29, 2018 22:40 | | Subject: | Bored? I Need Help | | Viewed: | 250 times | | Topic: | Catalog | | Status: | Open | |
|
| 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.

little more inclusive. For example, the sticker patterns from set 41150 are
still MIA on the database.

| Question for the catalog team.
Are these considered lego(products) and is it worth adding them into the catalog?
Thank you

| In my continual effort to make your lives marginally better (which is a close
second to my continual effort to be a person who does not use catchphrases),
I propose the following for discussion: why do we call patterns patterns pretty
much everywhere but in category names?
Nearly the only place you will see "Decorated" on BrickLink is in category names
(32 of them). When you click on decorated parts, though, you see parts with
patterns. I propose changing the word "Decorated" to the word "Pattern" in those
32 category names. This will have no effects except in aesthetics and site-wide
consistency.
LordSkylark has asked for a category split of the Aircraft category into patterned
and non-patterned parts. I decided to succumb to his demand and have created
a new category titled Aircraft, Pattern. Now you can look at it on the parts
category page and see if you prefer the way things are now or the way I suggest
we do things.
Provide input, please.

|
| I have been searching for an image of this set for years:
The set has no date of addition, so it must have been added to the site not too
terribly long after BrickLink was founded. At times I have wondered if the set
was even real, but the specificity of its name always made me think that it must
have existed.
Today I got this catalog in the mail which was not in the BrickLink database
and which I just now added:
In that catalog I finally found the long-missing image and added it. I'm
pretty confident that this is the only website anywhere that you can see an image
of set 9978-1. I'm pretty excited that my long search has finally ended
in satisfaction and wanted to share.
We are now down to only 29 sets without any image (and one of them is from 2018,
so it doesn't really count). If you'd like to see what we're missing,

| In my continual quest to make your lives marginally better, I have just now put
together a list with photos of the different types of figures the LEGO Group
has produced over the years.
This list is not yet official and will change. It will have more detailed descriptions
of figures and hopefully better photos. It will also move from the current location
to an unknown location in the Catalog Help Center section. Or, of course, it
could also get shot down.
I have also asked that the item type Minifigs be retitled to Figures
in light of the wide range of figures of all different sizes we include in this
one section - no word on if this will happen or not. So the six item types would
be:
Sets
Parts
Figures
Books
Catalogs
Gear
This is truly a sneak peak for everyone - the people at the BrickLink office
haven't even seen it yet:
https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=88
Your thoughts on this list and the item type retitle? Do you find this list
of figure types useful or is it something not needed?

|
| Please consider changing the following titles of these parts:
to: "Duplo, Brick 2 x 4 with Blue, Red and Yellow Pennants Bunting Pattern"
to: "Door 1 x 4 x 5 Train Right with Pennants Bunting Pattern (Sticker)
- Set 41034"
to: "Panel 1 x 6 x 5 with String of Magenta and Medium Azure Pennants Bunting
with White Dots Pattern (Sticker) - Set 41132"
(bold to show change)
Reason: Outside of North America English, the word 'bunting' is used
for 'pennants'. Pennants are actually different and are used as a nautical
term for the signalling flags on ships, however, I presume North American English
(Canada and USA) have adopted this the term for festive flags also. Those outside
US/Canada may not find these parts when searching for bunting.

| Author: | StormChaser | | Posted: | Nov 22, 2018 23:44 | | Subject: | Head Category Split | | Viewed: | 119 times | | Topic: | Catalog | | Status: | Open | |
|
| I have split heads into two categories. Minifigure heads now exist in the original
category and a new category titled Minifigure, Head, Faceless:
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogListOld.asp?catType=P&catString=1010&itemBrand=1000
This category will be for any heads which do not have a minifigure face, whether
the heads are simply plain or have some non-face pattern. I have only moved
three low-impact heads right now to give everyone an idea of what it will look
like. If there are no objections, then I will move the remaining heads which
qualify.
This was necessary because in the past the practice for heads without a face
was to use the wording "Head with XXXX Pattern." The addition of the word "with"
forced faceless heads (but not plain, unprinted heads) to the bottom of the list
of heads when searching by title and thus grouped them in one place.
This was not a perfect solution, however, because it ignored unprinted heads
and caused confusion for members when titling heads. I just looked at the end
of the list and found several standard heads which used the "with" keyword (which
isn't really a keyword at all because you can't search for it).
Anyway, thoughts on this new category? If it's not the best idea, then I
can always move the three heads back to from where they came and we can pretend
this never happened.

|
| First, let me thank you all for your assistance with these projects. Thanks
to your hard work and discussion we have completed four projects within the last
month and three are ongoing:
https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=2473
The seventh project consists of moving every 47th item in the Set item type to
the Gear item type. This is necessary because the Set item type just seems larger
than the Gear item type. When these items are moved, perhaps we can also give
them funny titles.
On a more serious note, this project actually consists of standardizing
whether set numbers appear in minifigure titles. Here are some examples of different
ways set numbers are included or not included in minifigure titles:
I realized that standardizing this would be as simple as a single sentence added
to the appropriate section of this page (which hasn't been updated since
2010):
https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=179
But before we change anything, let us discuss. Do you want minifigure titles
to include set numbers? Do you find set numbers in minifigure titles useful
or can you live without them? Once we decide and get written policy in place,
then we only need to examine the titles of all the minifigures and adjust as
necessary. If we go with including set numbers, then the format would be this
(with the words Multiple Sets instead of individual set numbers for figures that
appear in more than one set):
Minifigure Name (Set 1000-1)
Minifigure Name (Multiple Sets)
If we go with not including set numbers, then we just need to remove existing
set numbers from titles. I don't have a preference either way on this one.
Thoughts?
