Pen Beads appear as PARTS in a newly announced set for Lunar New Year. The photo
of the new set shows 2 minifigs with Bright Pink masks that are Pen Beads. Currently
Pen Beads only appear as GEAR items.

I thought that Catalog Admins should be made aware in the event that this may
require a catalog re-adjustment or re-classification of some kind.

The big heads in the LNY set are the same as the Thanos bigfig one, but I'm
not sure if they're also the same as the bead pieces

It looks like the big heads are bigger and so heavier than the bead pieces.
