In the past we often had Minifigures that had both helmet and hair piece but
they were only listed once in the catalog e.g. sw0416, sw0772, sw0407 ...
Why is Poe now listed twice as sw0737 with hair and as sw0737a with helmet?

I have submitted a change request.

Figure originally was submitted and approved to the catalog under new unique
number then it was changed ehwn it was in the catalog

  good morning,

all the original pieces 3070a, 3070b, 3069a, 3069b, 3068a, 3068b have the lego
logo on the back?
I have a doubt especially on 1x1

THANKS
DANIELE

Many of the older ones do not have the logo. Some have 'Pat Pend', some
have those words scratched out. Some don't even have either. All have mold
numbers. Only newer ones have part number.

Maybe the new one comes with the 4+ X-wing

It does, but why is it not a new number? It is a different figure as it has different
parts. There are other figures that are similar but different and appear in different
sets and have different numbers. Such as

 
Minifig No: sw0471  Name: Yoda - Olive Green, Open Robe with Large Creases, Neck Bracket
* 
sw0471 (Inv) Yoda - Olive Green, Open Robe with Large Creases, Neck Bracket
Minifigures: Star Wars: Star Wars Episode 2
 
Minifig No: sw0707  Name: Yoda - Olive Green, Open Robe with Large Creases
* 
sw0707 (Inv) Yoda - Olive Green, Open Robe with Large Creases
Minifigures: Star Wars

I totally agree with you
https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1190568 (and whole thread)
but as I see admins have different opinion about that.
I also think it should be new number.

...but I give it up and I don't care any more

Oh thats a shame to hear.... having glanced over your previous post I think I
pretty much agree with your proposal as I've just posted similar in this
thread though you may think some of my examples go a step too far with just relying
on different print decal but that is as least how I truly see minifigs being
unique enough to warrant their own ID

Minifig No: sw0707  Name: Yoda - Olive Green, Open Robe with Large Creases
* 
sw0707 (Inv) Yoda - Olive Green, Open Robe with Large Creases
Minifigures: Star Wars

If anything those Yoda’s are actually more similar to each other than the Poe
and so if we’re adding the letter ‘a’ to the end for similar items then we should
probably start with renaming them as sw0471 and sw0471a if we insist on keeping
the one with the bracket in the catalog?

Likewise the same for minifigs like these (jwo23 and jwo23a for backpack)

 
Minifig No: jw023  Name: Owen Grady
* 
jw023 (Inv) Owen Grady
Minifigures: Jurassic World

 
Minifig No: jw044  Name: Owen Grady - Backpack
* 
jw044 (Inv) Owen Grady - Backpack
Minifigures: Jurassic World

I would even extend further by saying maybe minifigures should only warrant a
new/unique reference where the minifig specifically has unique print decal be
that on the head, torso ,legs etc… the point being that adding a backpack, changing
the colour legs or style of hair is essentially just accessorising that same
minifigure differently thereby these Han’s would become sw0612, sw0612a, sw0612b

 
Minifig No: sw0612  Name: Han Solo, Reddish Brown Legs without Holster Pattern, Dual Sided Head, Cheek Lines
* 
sw0612 (Inv) Han Solo, Reddish Brown Legs without Holster Pattern, Dual Sided Head, Cheek Lines
Minifigures: Star Wars: Star Wars Episode 4/5/6

 
Minifig No: sw0714  Name: Han Solo, Dark Brown Legs
* 
sw0714 (Inv) Han Solo, Dark Brown Legs
Minifigures: Star Wars: Star Wars Episode 4/5/6

 
Minifig No: sw0823  Name: Han Solo, Dark Brown Legs, Wavy Hair
* 
sw0823 (Inv) Han Solo, Dark Brown Legs, Wavy Hair
Minifigures: Star Wars: Star Wars Episode 4/5/6

And even these Zane’s although they may look very different they are still essentially
the same minifig with the same print decal on the head and torso and just accessorised
differently and so may benefit from njo106 and njo106a:-

 
Minifig No: njo106  Name: Zane (Stone Warrior Armor) - Rebooted
* 
njo106 (Inv) Zane (Stone Warrior Armor) - Rebooted
Minifigures: NINJAGO: Rebooted

 
Minifig No: njo185  Name: Zane - Titanium Ninja White
* 
njo185 (Inv) Zane - Titanium Ninja White
Minifigures: NINJAGO: Rebooted

I don't mind either way, but just want consistency. Especially as these feed
into other sites that use minifigure definitions based on BL.


And nice to see you again! I hope you are getting more time for bug hunting or
whatever it is you do outside.

Presumably someone got the right catalogue administrator on the right day and
they approved it, whereas other times similar submissions were not approved.
