They should not be in the catalog. I faced some pushback when suggesting they
be removed, though. The only reason given was "historical reasons."

What pushback? These should obviously not be in the catalog.

973pb0385 Torso Idea Book 6000 Mary with 7 Red Dots Pattern (Sticker)
Parts: Minifigure, Torso


This part has 1 known colour listed: white. But the only picture is of this part
in red. This torso is found in one part, that part is also listed as white.

Could an additional known colour of red be added? The Torso assembly would be
red torso, red arms, red hands.

Imo we shouldnt, because this is actually a misplaced sticker so its more or
less a custom item. If you gonna add that to the catalog, you would have to
add every misplaced sticker, and since you can place stickers everywhere there
will be no end...


The part you mention is sold by one store, and thats his picture too I believe.

btw There is a picture of the white version, but its the torso assembly

It would be a lot of work making pictures aspecially with all the baseplates
with white dots and I certainly do not have them all.

On the attached picture is a example from set 648-1. On the right the original
one from the 70's and on the left a newer one.

It's true though we have similar looking undersides like this with sharp
edges around the hole and more curved ones.

I have the suspision they cut smaller baseplates from bigger ones. at least I
have seen plenty of edges that look cut. But this might be a custom job from
the people we bought it from.

They are cut of a larger in factory, cut to the size that was needed.
That is why older baseplates may have the whiter looking stressmarks.
I always mention this in my description so buyers know what they buy.

I would say it wouldn't hurt anything.

I would agree.

You're welcome to submit a request stating exactly what needs to be changed.

I can't do this. IMHO, a decision about the future road of these two parts
(and any new parts needed to be made) must be made by admin, and I expect them
to make the necessary changes to the catalog. I have seen no traces of any final
decision made yet.

/Jan

I'll make a request to have the notes changed, but splitting/new parts and
inventories I leave to others.

  They (and some of the inventories containing the 6mm part) are clearly wrong now.

Here I would suggest inventory change requests where appropriate.

It is placed over 2 black arches 6005.

Can this placed in the catalogue as a stickered counterpart?

Asking as it is over 2 parts and not one it may not be.

Thanks

Yes, as I learned not too long ago and opened up the floodgates with additions

As your first post was about PartDesigner, I’m guessing you’re asking for this
part to be added to Studio.
If that’s the case, the dedicated forum for Studio is https://forum.bricklink.com/
(red Studio icon on every page, “Builder Forum”).

But as you didn’t answer any of the other answers, I’m also guessing you won’t
