| Wow, these are really sad news.
Marek, I hope you are well and thank you very very much for everything you have
done for BrickLink and the catalog. It was mostly your (and Randy's) helpful
and positive attitude which convinced me to become a frequent contributer two
years ago.

On Friday we heard from Hygrotus, currently our longest serving catalog admin,
that he was relinquishing his position. This is for sure a setback for our team,
as he was an unequalled expert in many areas and was exceptionally diligent and
careful in his work.
We will certainly miss him, and we wish him the best for the future. You can

A loss for the BL catalog, he made an incredible work.
Hope well for him now!

Marek really brought a lot of value to BrickLink. I enjoyed working with him
and am going to miss that.

| Good luck to him. Hopefully it is happy news that some new opportunity has come
for him, or just spending more time on another or different aspect of the hobby.

Any reason this minifig is only named "Elastigirl" when she's wearing the
Mrs. Incredible outfit?
|
In the official description of the set, she is only referred to as Elastigirl.
I guess it is a bit like the various Iron Man suits, where they take the name
lego gives and not extra terms.

| | Hi,
I'm adding some counterparts (stickered parts) for the set 60183.
One of the items is a slope with Red and White Danger Stripes Thick Pattern.
See attached picture.
I found a similar item from another set in the catalog:
It's almost the same, the difference is the white dot in de lower left corner.
Should I add 'my' part as a new part or can I consider these items the
same?
And if it's distinctive, what name should I give it?
I'd like to hear your opinion!
|
It looks like the same part to me, just not quite perfect alignment of the sticker
print when cut.

The sticker looks narrower on yours so they would look odd as a pair of parts
that don't quite match on a set - submit as a new part (with a note in case
its not me that looks to approve it) and we'll discuss it from there if we
need to.
Thanks,
Paul.

The reason is that she is found in the set "Elastigirl's Rooftop Pursuit".
I don't remember to what extent she goes by Mrs Incredible. I have no objection
to the name showing both.

My memory may be off on this, but I think in the movie (as this was in the sequel
I believe), they were talking more about her before her family life when she
was "Elastigirl". I think she became "Mrs. Incredible" after marrying "Mr. Incredible"
later on (as she "retired" from the scene and became a housewife for a while).
In theory, it wouldn't be wrong to include Mrs. Incredible in the name as
well (and would make it easier for someone searching it by that name).
|
(And for the record; I completely agree with you because of the outfit used here
since it's not her original Elastigirl one. I think both names would be more
fitting).

Is it because I don’t have the Quiver? Can I list Minifigures if missing parts?

Yes, that's probably why, and no, you're not supposed to list incomplete
minifigures, at least not as regular catalogue items. You can list them as custom
items or part them out. Of course you can also buy the missing piece(s) and complete
the minifig(s) to list them

| | Hi,
I need some clarification for the part.
The inventory for this set indicates that it exists with the alternate part
So, should there be a catalog entry for this part with the police sticker on
it?
|
Yes, there could be if someone were to add it.
| | If so how would it be classified? Alternate part/counterpart?
|
Counterpart.

The message would have said it is because it is incomplete.

BrickLink is now enforcing the policy saying minifigures must be complete. You
can list as a custom item or list the individual parts.
