|
| The Dark Purple Classic Space torso for the CMF22 series figure 11 (Space Creature)
pictured below contains a classic space torso given a new print ID of 973pb4514c01,
with the emphasis on the print pattern of ID of 973pb4514*, which does not follow
the classic space print torso convention of 973p90* which is used on classic
space torso prints.
Even the CMF Rocket Boy from the CMF series 17
or the other reissues of the Classic Space figures follow this convention torso
973pb90 ID convention.
I highly suggest changing the 973pb4514c01 to be renamed to 973p90new2c11 which
is the next sequential available color number. Ideally the # ID after the "c"
should be BL color ID, but alas that would be a huge undertaking for the Catalog
system. Here is the list of the current 973p90new2* catalog entries: https://www.bricklink.com/catalogList.asp?pg=1&q=973p90new2%2A&catLike=W&v=1

|
| So I just had an order from a new buyer from a country that I specifically chose
not to do business with because I have been a victim of theft of my custom MOC
instructions in the past. However, this buyer created a new account from USA
to side-step my store rule. There is plenty of evidence which I do not want to
reveal here on the forum that proves to me this to be true. In order to protect
my custom MOC instructions that I sell on this site, I do not want to purse with
the order and just refund the buyer and cancel the order. I specifically chose
to use BL for select MOCs to be sold here on BL because it gives me more control
over this problem, compared to Rebrickable site which has not been able to stop
MOC instruction theft. Waiting on BL customer support e-mail.

|
| This pertains the difference between Friends accessories flowers and other accessories.
There appear to be 2 classifications in regards to connections. 1) thin pin and
2) bar thickness pin.
The catalogue descriptions don't differentiate them but it affects how they
can be connected. It would be great if the descriptions reflected the difference
as the thin pin accessories can mainly be connected to hair pieces with holes
and and the like, and the bar thickness accessories can be connected to broader
parts with bar holes, including grasping by hands.
Style 1 (thin pin) are these
* | | 18853 Friends Accessories Hair Decoration, Flower with Pointed Petals and Small Pin
Parts: Friends |
* | | 93080h Friends Accessories Hair Decoration, Flower with Serrated Petals and Small Pin
Parts: Friends |
* | | 93080g Friends Accessories Hair Decoration, Flower with Smooth Petals and Small Pin
Parts: Friends |
* | | 93080m Friends Accessories Hair Decoration, Tiara with 5 Points and Small Pin
Parts: Friends |
I think these also
* | | 11618 Friends Accessories Hair Decoration, Bow with Heart, Long Ribbon, and Small Pin
Parts: Friends |
Style 2 (bar thickness with pin hole on the bottom)

|
| It has come to my attention that Benny minifigures do not contain the wording
'Classic Space' which all the other versions of the classic space minifigure
do contain that. Some of the re-released classic space minifigures are from The
Lego Movie and hence their 'tlm' minifig prefix. Is there are reason
why Benny does not get the honor of having the 'Classic Space' description?
When searching for 'Classic Space' minifigures other town figures come
up with the classic space figure helmet or spaceman or whatnot on their shirt.
I guess what I am saying is that it would make it more uniform to have all of
them have the Classic Space designation in their title description so that they
can all be found since they are scattered across Space, The Lego Movie, and Town
categories.
Lastly, the orange Classic Space minifigure (not really sure it would be considered
reissue it being a new color) is coming out in October, and from looking into
other DK books, it looks like it will have the 'sp' prefix. I have the
figure on hand. Just let me know if you want me to take a photo of it for the
catalogue. I do not have the book.
figure reference: https://www.brothers-brick.com/2020/01/03/new-orange-spaceman-joins-the-classic-space-lego-minifigure-lineup-news/
The book is not out until October 13th in US, October 1st in UK through Amazon.

|
| A lot of old Lego sets have very small images in the Bricklink catalog. They
look like they were obtained from printed sources from the printed catalogs that
used to be included with those sets back in the 80s/90s. My suggestion is to
see if better quality and higher resolution images can be obtained from The Lego
Group for the Bricklink catalog. After all, Lego owns Bricklink. What does the
admin team think of this? Perhaps I am assuming too much and a convenient archive
of these images for all of these old sets does not readily exist for Bricklinks
use. It's worth checking into it. Are there any objections?

|
| If this is on the Catalog roadmap, my apologies, but I am noticing some logic
discrepancies on how some of these parts are allocated to their current categories.
Fo obvious reasons, part 25269 (Tile, Round 1 x 1 Quarter) is in the Tile Round
category, because 4 of these makes a nice circle shape.
Therefore I am assuming Part 24246 (Tile, Modified 1 x 1 Half Circle Extended
(Stadium)) is in the Tile Modified category because it's irregular and makes
no circle shape, despite one side being round.
Yet part 39739 (Tile, Round 1 x 1 Heart) is in the Tile Round category, despite
the fact that it makes no circular shape (clover leaf shape at best). To me,
they should either be in the Tile Round or Tile Modified as it's confusing
things.
There are other parts in the Tile Round category which are clearly modified like
This is also true for Plate Round category items. Perhaps it's time to create
Plate Round Modified and Tile Round Modified categories. There may be reason
for not doing this now, but things like this really bug me when searching for
parts where my logic fails to find them, usually parts falling into 2 or 3 categories
due to vague nature of classification.

|
| Should dual molded legs or arms in their respective assemblies really be considered
as decorated?
To me BL considered the decorated as by means of printing or applying decoration
using stickers.
example
the reasoning is, how is that any different from legs assembly with single color
legs but different color hips or mismatched leg colors?
I feel the same way about dual molded arms
There are reasons for not separating them, mainly for new buyers not knowing
or caring about the difference or just the general way of looking at it, but
I feel like there is no real definition for the term decorated that should be
defined. As far I am concerned, dual color molding is not really decorating.
Any thoughts?

|
| To prevent accidental deletion of inventory or restore of store's inventory
for various reasons like accidental deletions, price changes, etc. Currently
changes cannot be undone and a self administered restore function would be beneficial.
Requiring administrative assistance in restoring one's inventory is inconvenient
on both the seller and the BL team.
Remedy Option 1
To prevent strain on the infrastructure of constant periodic backups of everyone's
inventory, the backup would only initiate when a user enters their store's
inventory page, and limited to certain time intervals (once a day, once per hour,
or whatever the system can handle). The seller would have the option of self
initiate backup as needed.
Remedy Option 2
If the infrastructure cannot handle backups on their own system, perhaps Bricklink
can prompt user with an option to download inventory prior to deletion or major
changes being done to it, and self administer restore function.
Remedy Option 3
At the least, the system should require a re-login to the account when inventory
deletion function is selected to prevent accidental deletion of the store's
inventory.
The above options are no mutually exclusive and can be implemented in tandem
depending on what Bricklink system/team can implement.

|
| With instant checkout looming around the corner, I would like to have the option
for my buyers to be able to use the instant checkout option when purchasing my
electronically delivered custom model instructions.
However, at the moment, I cannot differentiate these electronic instructions
from actual paper instructions. I am not allowed to set the weight to zero grams
or selecting a checkbox that these are electronic. How will this be handled during
instant checkout with causing some sort of error?
Please allow for an option for sellers of custom instructions to be able to allow
instant checkout.
There are other sellers who use Bricklink for selling these and would benefit
from this implementation. It would also cause less issues and confusion if this
is properly handled. Lastly, this will draw more sellers of custom instructions
to sell through Bricklink instead of other venues.
Thank you for the consideration.
