I had
 
Set No: 8437  Name: Future Car
* 
8437-1 (Inv) Future Car
418 Parts, 1997
Sets: Technic: Model: Off-Road
as a child about 20 years ago and the red parts we are talking about were noticeable
darker than normal red parts. So I would say they have always been "rust".

  Also, the two parts that you have here are the same two parts that have been
documented as being found in a color very close to what looks like bright light
orange but were actually supposed to be yellow. I have a feeling that these color
changes may have to do with the type of plastic used for these two parts.

I agree. Since the "bright light orange" parts are inventoried as yellow, how
about classifying the "rust" parts as red and adjust the note on both entries?

Thank you all for the replies. I will certainly consider listing as 'custom'
items.

If you don't mind me asking, why do they choose not to add these to the catalog?
(Maybe you won't know, but I am curious anyways). They are official Lego
sets with Lego pieces, and the instructions have Lego logo and trademark all
over it. I thought it fit into the requirements for adding to the catalog.
Thanks for your time, I'm just trying to understand the guidelines for the
catalog.

Todd

I've got the sets so I can get an inventory, pictures, etc.

At this time, they will not be accepted if you submit them.

These are not added to the catalog at the present time. I can't say if they
will ever be added or not.

Cheers,

Hi again, what do you advise if nobody uploads the pictures? I spent a few hours
doing this because I thought it would lead to me being able to complete the set!

  I've submitted a load of stickered counterparts for set 75877, unfortunately
I'm missing the following four parts so can't take photographs (and needed
to add them to the database to make them easier to find for sale!). The others
have been approved but not sure what to do for these ones?

6636pb214
54200pb095L

We don't generally approve catalog entries without photographs. There are
some very limited exceptions, but these stickered counterparts would not qualify.

Don't feel too bad, though - there are thousands of stickered counterparts
not yet in the catalog. If anyone wants to contribute images for your pending
catalog entries, then I've linked them below:

 
Part No: 6636pb214  Name: Tile 1 x 6 with White 'POLICE' Pattern (Sticker) - Set 60207
* 
6636pb214 Tile 1 x 6 with White 'POLICE' Pattern (Sticker) - Set 60207

* 
54200pb096R Slope 30 1 x 1 x 2/3 with White Headlight Pattern Model Right Side (Sticker) - Set 75877
Parts: Slope, Decorated

We'll give it a week or so and then the pending entries will be removed.

Comments from Submitter:
Sealed set, pics following

Here's the problem with the "rust" parts. Were they really meant to be what
we consider the color rust? Or are they red parts that have changed color over
time?

For example, if we see the "brittle blue" parts these days, we know they look
absolutely different to the blue parts we know and love. However, these parts
probably looked just like blue parts when they were originally released in sets.

Also, the two parts that you have here are the same two parts that have been
documented as being found in a color very close to what looks like bright light
orange but were actually supposed to be yellow. I have a feeling that these color
changes may have to do with the type of plastic used for these two parts.

It would be nice for some of the resident color experts to chime in on this one.

Cheers,
Randy

Isn't there a mess with "rust" on Bricklink
WoutR list
https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1146513

"27 Rust
= 13 Red Orange (Duplo cows, Fabuland heads)
= The other BrickLink Rust parts are probably an odd version of 21 Bright Red
(?) but that color is so different that the separate listing is justified."
https://www.flickr.com/photos/126975831@N07/14960664342/

and

"68 Dark Orange
= 38 Dark Orange
= 216 Rust (for Skateboard 48394, Ladle x234, Dog 51163cx1)"

The decision to add these sets to the catalog is not my decision. I was just
relaying information. And that information was that these "sets" have never been
accepted into the catalog, and they may never be accepted into the catalog. Meaning
that if they were to be submitted to the catalog right now, they would be rejected.
That may change in the future, but I know about as much on that as the next person.

That's another interesting piece of the puzzle, thanks. Hopefully the OP
will read this thread and get that information.

I am still trying to figure this site out, it's not easy... is there a place
on the site I can go and see an organizational chart? And job descriptions?

Thanks, again,
James

Hi,
I recently bought a holder for trading cards, and it has a list of all the possible
cards (SW Series 2) with their numbers. Does it help if I add all the items to
the catalog? I have a few more where I will also add the images of the cards,
but in many cases, I won't.
Thanks,
Tamas
