| Hey, I’m trying to list the 2015 Toys r Us TRUKAYAK kayak and I can’t find it
in the catalogue. Could someone point me in the right direction? Found a discussion
forum from 2018 which seemed to suggest that BrickLink was adding these types
of exclusive sets to the site so maybe I’m missing it.

Even it was a TRU exclusive, there is no TRU branding on the instructions or
on the bag, it meets the Co-branding rules?

Co-branded items are items that have another brand name, logo, or trade dress
on the box, in the set contents, or in the set name.
Cheating? Maybe a little, but Toys "R" Us is in BrickLink's set name.
There are additional guidelines on that page that would tend to prohibit this
type of co-branding, but they've been loosely followed going way back:

Technically, shouldn't the set name be in curly brackets since it is not
an official name?

Well, Kayak is the official name.
The rest of the name not has an standard Exclusive Build or Event Exclusive,
Toys 'R' Us or TRU?
From where the sets are is implied in the item ID TRU* and with the Co-Branding.
What about a relationship to link all in-store builds, like the unsplit variants
one?

Categories are more appropriate to group similar sets. Categories are in a bit
of a mess right now, but we'll fix this eventually.
If we used item relationships for something like this you'd see hundreds
of sets every time you clicked on one of the in-store builds.

I meant as a new relationship like "Build event", each set would have only one
ID in the relationship, so all the other would not display in each entry, but
seeing the relationship would show all the Build event sets.

Ah, I gotcha. An interesting idea, treating item relationships like a tag system.
I guess I started that by adding unsplit variants and redesigned sets as item
relationships. Not sure how far we should go with it . . .

Just to remember it, an official tag system from Bricklink devs is not coming
anytime soon, aka, years...
