Does anyone know if
 
Part No: 6157  Name: Plate, Modified 2 x 2 with Wheels Holder Wide and Hole
*

Parts: Plate, Modified
is meant to be able to be removed from
 
Part No: 11650c01  Name: Vehicle, Base 5 x 10 x 2 1/2 with Mudguards and 6 x 2 Recessed Center with 3 Holes with (Same Color) Wheels Holders Attached

once they are together?

I feel like the axles are going to snap off of the 2X2 plates if I pull any herder
than I already am. Also, I've never seen a post with a tapered part at the
end like the chassis piece has. It seems a bit like those Bionicle brains and
heads.

I thought that this door
 
Part No: 64390  Name: Door 1 x 4 x 6 Round Top with Window and Keyhole, Reinforced Edge
* 
64390 Door 1 x 4 x 6 Round Top with Window and Keyhole, Reinforced Edge
Parts: Door
fit onto this modified brick
 
Part No: 60583b  Name: Brick, Modified 1 x 1 x 3 with 2 Clips (Vertical Grip) - Hollow Stud
* 
60583b Brick, Modified 1 x 1 x 3 with 2 Clips (Vertical Grip) - Hollow Stud
Parts: Brick, Modified
(either version of the 1X1X3 brick.)

The catalog pages for both the brick and the door list other parts that they
are compatible with. I thought that these 2 parts worked together, but from
what I see here, they do not. Perhaps the relationship just hasn't been
added yet? Can anyone tell me for sure if that door will fit into the clips
of that brick?

Thanks,
David

There's a new part I want to add to the catalog, and so far it only exists
with a printing on it. Is the proper procedure to add a sort of "placeholder"
entry for the actual new mold/part that has no printing, and then add the new
printed part that I have? I will upload a photo of the printed version I have,
but of course, cannot for the base part.

Thanks,
David

This past week at Brickworld Indy I noticed that all of my tan 16X32 baseplates
were a different shade of tan than all of my 32X32 tan baseplates.
 
Part No: 3857  Name: Baseplate 16 x 32
* 
3857 Baseplate 16 x 32
Parts: Baseplate
My tan 32X32 BPs appear to be the same color as any tan brick or other regular
part in tan. However, all of my 16X32 BPs are slightly darker and more yellow.
The difference was, of course, most noticeable when I had the BPs right next
to each other on my display.

The tan 16X32 BP has been in 16 sets over the years, 14 of which were from 1996
to 2002. I have bought all of my tan 16X32 BPs from various sources, and they
are all the same not-quite-LEGO-tan color. There were a couple of Spongebob
sets in 2006 and 2008 that had a tan 16X32 BP. I imagine that none of my BPs
are new enough to be from those most recent sets.

I was wondering, does anyone out there have any tan 16X32 BPs that you know are
from the Spongebob sets, and can verify if they match the shade of other tan
LEGO parts?

Thanks,
David

In the first LEGO Movie 2 preview ( https://youtu.be/XvHSlHhh1gk?t=31 ) the sewer
babies are all holding weapons and the like. Anyway, I was planning on making
my own Apocalypseburg display, and of course, I want to have some sewer babies.

My question is: Is there such a thing as a baby body that has hands that can
grip minifig scale items (3.2mm diameter)?

Thanks,
David

I was just trying to upload an image to the catalog, and I got an error that
says,

Oops! There was a problem processing your request:

1. Parameter Error.


The image is within the 800X600 pixel size requirement. What else could be the
trouble?

Please make changes to the following inventory:
 
Set No: 311  Name: Basic Set
* 
311-3 (Inv) Basic Set
35 Parts, 1984
Sets: Universal Building Set: Basic Set

* Change {2 to 3} Part Red 3001old Brick 2 x 4 without Cross Supports

Comments from Submitter:
The change from Dec 14, 2009 was incorrect. I recently acquired this set sealed, and it does have 3 red 2X4 bricks. The box art definitely shows multiple instances of models that use 3 red 2X4 bricks.

I don't think that this exists yet, though I could be wrong. I searched the
Help section and couldn't find anything about it.

I think it would be useful to have a password-guarded option to let certain
people pay a seller by a method that is not available to other buyers.


My store has PayPal, Cashier's Check and Money Orders as payment methods. Just
today I had a person, who I've been friends with for years in my own LUG, order
from me. Typically when he orders from my Bricklink store, I bring the parts
to our next LUG meeting, and he pays me in cash. My store doesn't accept cash
as a payment type (which is pretty typical here). My friend has to click one
of the 3 payment types to let the order go through, despite the fact that he
knows he won't be paying by that method.

Now you may be thinking, "Why don't you just add 'Cash' as a payment type in
your store? Only the people who are going to see you in person to pick up their
order would click that payment method." Yeah...that should be how it
would work. I have a feeling that if I add "Cash" to my payment methods, someone
would inadvertently click that payment type, when that's not really what they're
going to use.

If this suggestion is implemented, I could add Cash and Check as payment options
to my store, and give out the password only to members of my LUG. I would set
the other 3 payment types to be the default set of payment options in my store
and not require a password. Then there should be no mixups when people who I
will never see in person or newbies select how they want to pay.
