Comments from Submitter:
It appears that there were other parts in this set that used to be Flat Dark Gold until they were changed to Pearl Gold. The 3048s in this set were changed from Flat Dark Gold to Pearl Gold in June of 2006. It seems that the sword was just never changed. This set should not have had any color transition alternates.
|
Where are these images from? Are they showing opened sealed sets? If not, we
need better proof, because the swords may have been Reddish Gold.

Comments from Submitter:
Set was released in 2003. 44302b was not released until 2013 according to BrickLink (2006 on Rebrickable). Therefore 44302a is correct.

A sealed set that I just opened proved you are correct.

The original set came with
[p=4502w,5]
The guidelines for items in inventories that originally came on sprues can be
found here:
https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=1562#regularItems
Specifically:
"Parts on Sprues - Complete sprues are included in this section unless
some parts from the sprues are used in minifigures. In that case, the parts from
the sprues that are not used in minifigures are included in this section."
Basically, the dragon plume is used in a minifigure, so the other parts of the
sprue are then accounted for in the inventory.
As such, this request will not be accepted.

It's not the same color???
I've empathy for you; Flat/Metallic/Pearl colors is a real mess.
Wishing you the best.
|
The issue is that some BrickLink members in the past have seen distinctions between
the colors and have registered their findings in the inventory system and to
a certain extent in their listings.
Merging Flat Silver and Pearl Light Gray is something we will likely to in the
future. But it needs to be planned, announced, and carried out in a way to cause
the least disruption.
|
But they are not the same color:
https://www.flickr.com/photos/126975831@N07/15206357186
https://www.flickr.com/photos/126975831@N07/15076958255
The only harder to tell apart are the parts that come in a softer plastic than
bricks, but if you correct the inventories and listings people get along. And
side by side images show the difference in parts that came in both colors.
There are harder colors to distinguish like Light Yellow and Bright Light Yellow,
and some Blues if you don't have parts to compare.
|
It should say "Merging *pre-2010* Flat Silver and Pearl Light Gray is something
we will likely do in the future." There is no plan to get rid of modern Flat
Silver.

Comments from Submitter:
These parts are Light Gray according to the instructions.
Part 30389 is actually part 30389a as 30389b didn't exist until 2002 (set is from 2000). This part do not exist in Dark Gray either.

Unfortunately we can't approve change requests based on instruction images.
Some points:
- if we would do so, the minifigure (inventory) would be wrong also
- it looks like there are two versions of this set (a polybag and a Kabaya box,
only the box is in the catalog)
- the instruction available online (and on catalog image) could be from the polybag?
So we would like to see more proof.
Do you own the polybag or Kabaya box? If so, did you buy it sealed?
Diana

The polybags came inside the Kabaya boxes. They are one and the same.

| | Hello,
Since the category "Gear: Card, Trading Card / Ninjago" is constantly growing,
I think it would make sense to further subdivide the category into the respective
series. Can something like this be changed automatically by the catalog admins,
or does an request have to be made for each entry? The entries can all be assigned
very well using the catalog number, so I assume that could be done without much
effort.
What do you say to that?
Best regards
Martin

If each series had all of the cards in the catalog, I could see this possibly
happening. However, as it is, there are only a couple of series that have any
significant amount of cards in the catalog. The rest of the series have very
few. For now, I think they are best left as is for ease of locating them all
in the catalog in the same location.

Comments from Submitter:
6538b has had a Pearl Very Light Gray photo for a little while now, and the part in the photo certainly looks like said color. I have finally found PCCs 4169194 and 4177082 for part 6538b in Pearl Very Light Gray.
Pearly Silver colors are known to display lots of variation, but I believe the part in the photo is light enough to be this color.
I went through a few Brickset inventories containing 6538, and this set did not even have one in Pearl Light Gray. The LEGO customer service replacement parts page doesn't have ANY parts available in TLG 150 Light Gray Metallic, meaning that Brickset more than likely wouldn't. It doesn't have any TLG 150 items on it. The absence of a 6538 in any silver color in the 8010 inventory suggests that this set came with a Pearl Very Light Gray axle connector piece. It would have had a Pearl Light Gray piece if it was in the set's most recent release, which it doesn't.
|
The axle connector can be seen in both photos. This pearl color is much lighter
than basic Pearl Light Gray.

I have a sealed set headed my way, so there will be no need to guess.

You can still list your item under the unsplit entry.

Yes.

We need names with this much differentiation/detail, since LEGO has made a number
of different versions and renditions of TIE Pilots (many of which share parts).
The names need to be standardised, searchable, and able to differentiate between
Minifigs. (Also, no TIE Bomber Pilots have appeared on-screen; LEGO just called
this one, because it was included in a set with a TIE Bomber.)
|
If I search for a TIE bomber pilot, I get one search result. I don't know
why it is necessary to go into the extreme detail you are going into, as it shares
no name details with any other figure. Plus, if you are going over 150 characters
for a minifigure name, you are doing something wrong. We are a LEGO commerce
site, not a Star Wars pedant site, so we need to be cautious about going into
such enormous detail for the average user. Please stop submitting any name changes
until we reach a decision on what to do.

I am not sure what you are trying to say, since the comparison that you are making
is not analogous.
|
Not everyone on BrickLink is a Star Wars expert and knows the difference between the different types of clones. Is it redundant? Perhaps. But it's not really a big deal either way.
|
In my OP, I acknowledged that names like “Clone Trooper Pilot” were correct;
my issues are with their redundancy, their contribution to the inflation of already-long
names, and their awkwardness when paired with the name of a character (e.g. “Clone
Trooper Captain Rex”).
|
You do realize that you have contributed a lot to the inflation of the names on these figures, right? So what is one more word that is easily searchable.
|
The other terms that I have added are necessary and helpful, in my view, but
you make a fair point. I can compromise on "Trooper" being included in the titles
of generic Clones Pilots and Officers (Captain, Commander, etc), but I would
prefer if we kept it out of the names of specific characters, since it reads
awkwardly to me.
BTW, why was my change to put the MagnaGuard into "Star Wars Episode 3" rejected?
My categorisation of that figure was in-line with my other recategorisations

Not everyone on BrickLink is a Star Wars expert and knows the difference between the different types of clones. Is it redundant? Perhaps. But it's not really a big deal either way.

In my OP, I acknowledged that names like “Clone Trooper Pilot” were correct;
my issues are with their redundancy, their contribution to the inflation of already-long

Could be that Lego considers Metallic Gold as a decoration and that is why it
is named "Parabola 6X6, No. 13"? as it only uses the No. designation for decorated
elements as far as I know.
And in that case the Design ID 73589 is not the mold ID.
For example:

Has Design ID 69603
But it is just:

Parts: Dish, Decorated |
So, are we going to add the Design ID as Alternate IDs to all decorated parts
too?
|
No, just for metallic versions of regular parts, since BrickLink does not consider
these patterned parts but unique colors. So Design IDs for Metallic Gold, Metallic
Silver, and soon-to-be Metallic Copper can be added. Most of them (if not all)
already have been added.

Basically there's a new version of a part with a significant but visually

older version. It was released this year I believe, so maybe it just hasn't
been updated yet, but I think the difference is subtle enough to have been missed.
The new part number is just classed as an Alternate Version, although it is functionally
different to the new part

You can bring it up right here, you just have to specify which part you are talking
about.

Ah cool, just wasn't sure if it would be seen by the admins or whatever if
I just posted it here.
Part 47458 and 81300 are listed as the same part, but the latter has a thicker
wall on the underside, meaning it has clutch power on the centre bar. The former
does not, and therefore cannot be connected to a hollow/open stud in the centre
of the part.
Here is a Eurobrick thread I made with pics etc. on it to explain better:
https://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?/forums/topic/187736-part-47458-has-zero-clutch-power/
|
A note was added to the part:
"There are at least two versions of this part. Those with item number 47458 have
a thinner wall than those with alternate item number 81300. This results in the
latter part being able to clutch a hollow stud in the center whereas the former
cannot."
The part was also added to the "Unsplit Part Variants" list:
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogRelList.asp?relID=24&catID=438
If a build comes along that needs the specific functionality of the newer version,
then the part will be split appropriately.

I have the newest version of this part with Design ID 63782. It has 63782 molded
into the part and is very new. I compared it to a black one that is definitely
older and should be Design ID 32449. It looks like the black one in your image
with mold number and small copyright symbol. They are the same exact size.
The white one you have is probably the oldest since it only has the copyright
mark and nothing else. Maybe the early versions were slightly larger. However,
I don't think it warrants a note as the functionality is identical and the
difference is unnoticeable unless you do an experiment like you have set up.
Keen observation, though.

That is where you would be correct. My criteria does differ. The "Other" categories
on BrickLink are to be used for anything that doesn't fit any of the other

I believe creating a category for just one minifigure is somewhat overkill. It

Rogue One. Please let me know which one is "fine enough", although not "perfect".

Hi,
I have noticed that some of the minifigure packing dimensions are based on an
assembled figure (i.e. with hat/helmet on). This results in all three dimensions
being larger than 16mm.
Due to these dimensions instant checkout rejects the large letter option. However
if you send the minifure unassembled it often can easily fit into a large letter.
for example:
Has dimensions 26x43x17. which means that instant checkout rejects the large
letter option. (remove the hat and the item will now fit into a large letter
package.)
In this case the buyer had to select manual invoice and add a message asking
for the order to be sent as a large letter.
So the issue is should the packing dimensions for a minifigure be based on an
assembled or unassmbled figure?
|
For the BrickLink catalog, dimensions reflect the minifigure as assembled in
the catalog image. They also happen to be the dimensions used for the packing
calculation for minifigures. This was decided to be the standard by the site.
I am guessing this was because unassembled minifigure dimensions can be calculated
in numerous ways, but the assembled minifigure is usually one specific combination
of parts with one specific set of dimensions.
Cheers,
Randy

There's a photo somewhere in this long thread of Reddish Gold swords and
armor pieces in different shades of RG. 47474 is still the part that appears
more inconsistent than others. This set should have the Copper one removed and
the Pearl Gold sword moved to the main section.

They look Flat Silver to me. I will work on a picture tonight or this weekend.

The ‘Flat Silver’ swords are TLG 131 Silver or BL Pearl Light Gray/Flat Silver.
The ‘Pearl Light Gray’ swords are TLG 296 Cool Silver or BL Pearl Light Gray.
This is an issue I have brought up before with not recognizing Cool Silver.
Randy has suggested that any pre-2010 Flat Silver part be moved to Pearl Light
Gray so that BL Pearl Light Gray contains both old Silver and 2006 Silver. I
have to go back and look at my list, but there are over a hundred parts that
come in both 131 and 296, so sellers will probably continue to sell darker old
Silver parts under Flat Silver.
The eventual goal is to have BL Flat Silver contain TLG 315 Silver Metallic (2011
Silver) because right now it contains Cool Silver IDs, new Silver parts, and
old Silver parts.

a fixed build, and have a lot of possible combinations.
What is the plan for listing these in the catalog? List every possible combination

minifigures at all?

Only the minifigures that are shown completely built in the building instructions

So out of (to me) four known variants, we have two variants with cylinder, we
have two with flat pin, we have two with inside supports, two without inside
supports. I don't believe that two of them can be considered more similar
than others. Well, I keep the variants separated in my store anyway, because
collectors care. BL just makes it harder than it should be.
/Jan

That is what we have to constantly tend to, having too many variants for collectors
against the wishes of the majority of sellers and buyers or too few variants
for the majority who couldn't care less against the wishes of collectors
who want every detail catalogued. The site management also holds this stance,
and we try our best to keep a healthy balance. If we truly wanted to, almost
every part in the entire catalog would have variants. In fact, we already have
a list of over 525 parts with known variants catalogued that _haven't_ been
split. Splitting all of those would be an absolute nightmare for the catalog
as well as the inventories. It is understandable why balance is necessary.
Cheers,
Randy

So now that we have these two variants (which I'm not sure why is needed),

Are you absolutely sure about these changes, for they don't seem to fit any
timeline (as far as there is any).
Launch/exit time for this set: March 1, 2010 - July 31, 2012
44567a/b has an overlap time from 2013 to 2020, so far 44567b starts in 2012
(dbg) / 2013 (black) as regular part.
PCC's (4210892, 4185620) in instructions are in BL catalog for both a and
b versions.
44302b dbg also appears as regular in 2013 for the first time so far.
Instructions 3845 show PCC 4210884 for 44302a dbg
Considering this, I'm not convinced if I should approve these changes based
on a used set. Given the uncertain timelines for both parts, I prefer better
evidence.
I will keep this request open, untill there's more proof for this specific
set, or untill we have hard evidence for the timeline of these parts in these
colors.

| | I ran across the Duplo Van Type 2 which exists in three different versions. The
1406cxx-part is made from three parts plus wheels screwed together. The top part
has the mould number 58234 visible but is not in the catalog. Is it possible
to add this as an alternate number?
I think 58234 should be added as an alternate part number to all three of the
1406cxx-parts.
The 58235 and 50281 are not as important in the catalog as they are only visible
if you unscrew it.

This has been completed. Each van can now be found with the 50281, 58234, 58235,
or 58236 part numbers using the wildcard searches 50281*, 58234*, 58235*, or
58236* respectively.
The request actually led to more work than I had originally thought, because
the sets containing the vans were not inventoried properly. So this request actually
served a dual purpose and solved another catalog issue.
Cheers,
Randy

Currently says quantity of 3, official Lego instructions only use 2, one for each leg. If you go to the official instructions, steps 1 and 5 use 1 each, no other step does.

Note to inventory admin:
This is most likely an extra part that was not separated from the main inventory.
To keep the official part count at 28 parts, the extra rubber band should be
moved into the regular section. At this time, rubber bands were all counted in
the official part count.

I already thought about this part but it's too long (and don't actually
fit into the 2 x 2 Round Brick)
My other guess is the part 50254 (2 of them) but i'ts too smooth on the top

It could be a custom, modified part, because it really looks like 6539 with one
end cut off neatly to be flush with the bottom of the 2x2 round brick.

| | Hello!
As a relatively new BL store owner, I have been trying to keep my inventory accurate
by ensuring that every part has packing dimensions listed in the BL catalog.
However, is there any benefit to doing so?
I had assumed that if a part has "?" for the packing dimensions, it would therefore
be excluded as eligible for Instant Checkout, since the BL ordering system would
not be able to determine that a part with "?" dimensions can fit within the size
dimension restrictions I have set for Instant Checkout for certain packaging
sizes.
I have submitted a number of Catalog Change Requests to add dimensions for parts
recently, so I would like to know if I should keep doing so in order to ensure
my entire inventory can be accurately determined if eligible for Instant Checkout
or not.
Thank you!

There are parts of the world that have shipping methods determined by volume,
so packing dimensions are important. I believe weight is used a majority of the
time, but volume has its place. Someone else who really runs a store can correct
me if that statement is incorrect.
Cheers,
Randy
