I have several hundred spare parts which belong to multiple sets. Is there a
way to get a parts inventory mapped to sets.
For example I know I can identify what sets an individual part is in, but is
there a way to identify multiple parts

Set 1 Set 2 Set 3
Part 1 Yes No Yes
Part 2 No Yes Yes
Part 3 No No Yes

Cheers

counterpart: means another part can play same role, like a printed tile, right?

https://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemIn.asp?P=4185&colorID=5&in=A

Why this dude shows up as counterpart of itself? Shouldn't it be a little
different?

Hi again all,

Can anyone tell the difference between
 
Part No: 3626cpb0846  Name: Minifigure, Head Alien with Lime Eyes, White Fangs, Red Face Decorations, Dark Red Mouth and Black Cheek Lines Pattern - Hollow Stud
* 
3626cpb0846 Minifigure, Head Alien with Lime Eyes, White Fangs, Red Face Decorations, Dark Red Mouth and Black Cheek Lines Pattern - Hollow Stud
Parts: Minifigure, Head
and
 
Part No: 3626cpb2560  Name: Minifigure, Head Alien with Lime Eyes, White Fangs, Red Simpler Face Decorations and Black Mouth and Cheek Lines Pattern - Hollow Stud
* 
3626cpb2560 Minifigure, Head Alien with Lime Eyes, White Fangs, Red Simpler Face Decorations and Black Mouth and Cheek Lines Pattern - Hollow Stud
Parts: Minifigure, Head

To me they look the same. Any ideas?

Steve

Hi all,

Can anyone tell what the difference between
 
Minifig No: njo574  Name: Lloyd - Legacy, Rebooted, Ninjago Logogram 'MANTER' on Torso
* 
njo574 (Inv) Lloyd - Legacy, Rebooted, Ninjago Logogram 'MANTER' on Torso
Minifigures: NINJAGO: Legacy
and
 
Minifig No: njo574a  Name: Lloyd - Legacy, Rebooted, 'MASTER' Torso
* 
njo574a (Inv) Lloyd - Legacy, Rebooted, 'MASTER' Torso
Minifigures: NINJAGO: Legacy
actually is. According to the inventory, they contain different torsos - the
color of the shirt (one being light green, the other white) and apparently "MANTER
or MASTER".
 
Part No: 973pb3789c01  Name: Torso Tunic, Light Green Shirt, Wide Black Hems with Gold Ninjago Logogram 'MANTER' and Dragon Pattern / Yellow Arms / Black Hands
* 
973pb3789c01 (Inv) Torso Tunic, Light Green Shirt, Wide Black Hems with Gold Ninjago Logogram 'MANTER' and Dragon Pattern / Yellow Arms / Black Hands
Parts: Minifigure, Torso Assembly, Decor.
 
Part No: 973pb4056c01  Name: Torso Tunic, White Shirt, Wide Black Hems with Gold Ninjago Logogram 'MASTER' and Dragon Pattern / Yellow Arms / Black Hands
* 
973pb4056c01 (Inv) Torso Tunic, White Shirt, Wide Black Hems with Gold Ninjago Logogram 'MASTER' and Dragon Pattern / Yellow Arms / Black Hands
Parts: Minifigure, Torso Assembly, Decor.
Given white printing is rarely actually white on dark colored torsos, I suspect
the shirt colors are the same. Similarly, is MANTER just a typo, and it should
be MASTER?

Should the torsos, hence the minifigures, be merged?

Store: Adulting is Hard
I'm wondering why there aren't counterparts, or something similar for
many minifigures. I've had many times where I'll have a minifigure that
would come with a set, but not the fig that is inventoried in Bricklink. It
is an intended figure from Lego, and may even be the primary figure based on
the instructions.

It seems that by not including these "counterfigures", certain parts have their
prices artificially inflated, as the fig cannot be sold without those parts.
I know figs can be sold just as parts, but that is significantly less desirable.
I'm sure others have run into similar issues. Some examples...there are
lots more:

Thanos with infinity gauntlet instead of left hand
 
Minifig No: sh504  Name: Thanos - Large Figure, Medium Lavender Arms Plain, Dark Blue Outfit, Pearl Gold Helmet
* 
sh504 (Inv) Thanos - Large Figure, Medium Lavender Arms Plain, Dark Blue Outfit, Pearl Gold Helmet

Hi!

I would like to add missing minifigures sh808 and sh810 to the pending inventory
for set 40525 as they are missing. Is there a way to do that or do I have to
wait until the inventory for that set has been approved?

Thanks!

Hello,

Wasn't sure if I can add known/available colours for parts using the forms
so am hoping it's okay to post the request here.

 
Part No: 4863c01  Name: Window 1 x 4 x 2 Plane, Single Top Hole and Double Bottom Holes for Glass with Trans-Light Blue Glass (4863 / 4862)
* 
4863c01 (Inv) Window 1 x 4 x 2 Plane, Single Top Hole and Double Bottom Holes for Glass with Trans-Light Blue Glass (4863 / 4862)
Parts: Window

Please can this part be updated to make it known/available in Red. Seems a bit
of an oversight that there's a photo showing it existing in Red but I can't
select the colour Red from the list of colours.

Six of them are found in set 6392 (as well as two in White). I realise they
are part assemblies (counterparts), but since it exists in White & Yellow, I
figure it should also exist in Red. Unless I am missing something and making
a glaringly obvious mistake?

Thank you
Marc

I see that part [P=47847pb003U,66] is labeled as "obsolete", yet I see no other
item that would replace this catalog entry. Did the entries to replace it never
get created?

I noticed there are two kind of hips on legs:

1. Older hips part with horizontal Lego logo (I am not sure when it discontinued
to pruduce)
2. Newer hips part with vertical Lego logo (what we have today)

I want to know if anyone have idea about it, when Lego discontinued to produce
legs with horizontal Lego logo on hips?

I ask it because I want to complete some minifigures and my plan is to be as
authentic as possible, but for that I need that information.

Just a short note to mention that we have changed the color name for Satin
White
to Satin Trans-Clear. When the color was first named, the only
available parts were very small and the transparency level was difficult to perceive.
With the advent of larger parts in that color such as:
 
Part No: 80336  Name: Mini Doll Skirt Long Full Octagonal (Diamond Dress Container Bottom)
* 
80336 Mini Doll Skirt Long Full Octagonal (Diamond Dress Container Bottom)
Parts: Mini Doll, Body Part {Satin Trans-Clear}
the transparent nature of the color is more easily observed.

The name is already changed in the root catalog. Color names on catalog detail
pages and storefronts should be changed during nightly maintenance.

I've been reading elsewhere that LEGO changed the box art, and presumably
sticker sheet, for set 42141 (McLaren F1).

I don't see any notations about this in the Bricklink catalog entry. Will
there be a dash1 and dash2 entry ... eventually? How long does it typically take
for such to happen?

thanks!

is marked for deletion because it is beleived to be a random minifig.

The minifig was however still for sale in this configuration at the LEGO-store
in Utrecht (NLD). And there were plenty of them, suggesting it was not a random
fig at all.

I would like to have opinions from vintage collectors on this one
 
Part No: bb0072  Name: String Reel Winch 4 x 4 x 2 with Sloped Top, Metal Handle, Black Drum and Crane Arm
* 
bb0072 String Reel Winch 4 x 4 x 2 with Sloped Top, Metal Handle, Black Drum and Crane Arm
Parts: String Reel / Winch {Red}
 
Part No: bb0073  Name: String Reel Winch 4 x 4 x 2 with Sloped Top, Metal Handle, Red Drum and Crane Arm
* 
bb0073 String Reel Winch 4 x 4 x 2 with Sloped Top, Metal Handle, Red Drum and Crane Arm
Parts: String Reel / Winch {Red}
doesn't appear in any set on Bricklink and I think the reason is:
 
Part No: bb0072c01  Name: String Reel Winch 4 x 4 x 2 with Sloped Top, Metal Handle, Black Drum and Crane Arm Complete with String and Crane Hook Right
* 
bb0072c01 (Inv) String Reel Winch 4 x 4 x 2 with Sloped Top, Metal Handle, Black Drum and Crane Arm Complete with String and Crane Hook Right
Parts: String Reel / Winch {Red}
because of this assembly with black string it looks like all these have a black
drum.

I wanted to add a bb0073c01 to the catalogue, but I am having some doubts, because
 
Part No: x77a  Name: String, Cord Thin (Undetermined Length)
* 
x77a String, Cord Thin (Undetermined Length)
Parts: String & Net {Black}
has an undetermined length and this length could be different per set

and

 
Part No: 3127  Name: Hook Plate, Modified 1 x 2 with Crane Hook Left
* 
3127 Hook Plate, Modified 1 x 2 with Crane Hook Left
Parts: Hook {Red}
and
 
Part No: 3127b  Name: Hook Plate, Modified 1 x 2 with Crane Hook Right
* 
3127b Hook Plate, Modified 1 x 2 with Crane Hook Right
Parts: Hook {Red}
appear in sets randomly. Both variants exist in Pat Pend, Pat Pend
Obscured ...

Since a part assembly can't have alternate parts in it's inventory, I
think it would be better to have the separate parts in inventories, instead of
the assembly.

I know set 183-1 came with a complete assembly, but I am not sure it did come
in all 9 sets as assembly (most of them have the assembly as regular in the inventory
from the start though). Set 183 has almost everything assembled.

Besides your opinion on this, I would like to ask members who have one or more
sets below, to check:
- does it have bb0072 or bb0073
- does it have 3127 or 3127b
- what's the length of the string
- did it come assembled in the original sealed box
Please mention why you think it came original with the set (had it from childhood,
was bought sealed, etc..). The more proof, the better. If you have images from
sealed set contents, I would really appreciate it. Images of black drums in catalogues,
on box and in instructions are not considered as proof, that it actually came
with a black drum.

I noticed sometimes a shop will have a greatly inflated price. This skews the
average. One simple way around this is to use the median price instead. It more
accurately portrays the state of the market. IMHO

Is this horn thing a LEGO part? I used the 1 x 1 cone as a reference for size.

Thanks for the input.
