Heads 3626bpb0844 and 3626cpb0844 are actually two different heads. Not just
separated by a a hollow and blocked stud. They both have the same descriptions
but head 3626bpb0844 is actually medium blue.

Thanks for the heads-up, I was actually looking to buy that type of head, and
didn't really want blue ones. I'll keep that in mind!

It could just appear that way over the black and printed in a different factory
for the blister pack?

I suspect both are supposed to look the same even if the result is different.

Having said that these 2 heads will be merged soon unless action is taken to
differentiate them.

Jen I don't suppose you still have the blister pack around do you? We need
to be sure it's really medium blue and save it or at least add a note to
the entry explaining a variation in color.

Thanks,
Paul.

Hey!

I've got the blocked stud

I should also mention that they are Medium Blue and Dark Azure. The 'Blue'
in the original item name was most likely meant to be a generic blue.

The one from the normal sets is definitely Blue printed over White. I have a
number of them, and none of them remotely approach Dark Azure in color.

Oh so fast.

Is it an exact match to medium blue?

If so and if there is really such a clear distinction I think 2 new entries are
needed (with different pb numbers so they don't get merged).

It's not safe to edit the existing entries because I bet there are a lot
of sellers with the wrong stud type so just changing the color on 3626bpb0844
will lead to wrong listings where if people want the edited medium blue version
they will be disappointed.

Thanks as always,
Paul.

p.s.

LEGO Data online and in printed instructions both show:

PCC 6029715 in 850632
PCC 6017976 in 70502, 70504, 70505

Lol, yes. What does it say about my household that I've been searching for
Belle for a week without finding her, but I know exactly where all the Ninjago
minifigs are?

Yes, I believe so.

Let me know if you need any images and I will prepare them.

Nah, it’s okay… unless Belle is a person’s or pet’s name?

I see your point! However, I am trying to resolve an issue with her hair.

That's very kind of you to offer. I just wanted to directly compare the original
hair with the newer ABS version. I've still a couple more places to check,
but if I come up empty I will let you know!

Thanks,
Jen
