Hello Admin,

I hope I am in the right place.

Is there any reason why Collectible Minifigure's instruction books are inventoried
as each specific minifigure when all instruction books are the same?

This causes confusion for buyers (and annoyance for sellers) who think they are
getting the specific minifigure's instruction booklet when it will just be
a generic book.


So when parting out a CMF, instead of:

(Instructions) for Set col19 Video Game Champ, Series 19


It should read:

(Instructions) for Series 19 Collectible Minifigure


Just my 2 cents... thanks!!

The way the system is built, the intructions and packaging for a set are a property
of the set, like the weight and dimensions. So more than one set cannot share
the same instructions or packaging.
