I'm working on the inventory for the
 
Set No: 40649  Name: Up-Scaled LEGO Minifigure
* 
40649-1 (Inv) Up-Scaled LEGO Minifigure
650 Parts, 1 Minifigure, 2023
Sets: Sculptures
and need to create a new
entry for the minifigure. I've created them in the past, but they have all
been under a theme so the name is pretty much defined, I would just need to find
the next number in the series. In this case, I don't know what "theme"
to use for the naming. My thoughts were either pln* or gen* but I wanted to
put it out to the inventory masters incase there was a designation that I wasn't
thinking about.

I believe this one would be 'Town' so: twn

I don't know the reason. That's just where lost minifigs seem to go.

I kind of though that originally too, but then I looked at the list of twn* figs
and they are all decorated. That's what made me look up the torso and found
the pln* category. However I questioned it when there were no new additions
in like 15 years. I'll see what other thoughts are first but twn wouldn't
be a bad choice either.

There's this set:

 
Set No: 10213  Name: Shuttle Adventure
* 
10213-1 (Inv) Shuttle Adventure
1190 Parts, 3 Minifigures, 2010
Sets: Sculptures

Take a look at the Shuttle Adventures set above, minifigs in it have been listed
with the sp prefix, for Space related reasons. Listing this minifigure as twn*
would therefore be the right choice for it. There aren't many Sculpture sets
with minifigs appearing as a minifig in them, so it would appear logical.

I hope that sheds some insight onto the naming conventions used on this site.

Cheers ...

I would do a pln* for this one.
