Hi,

I've discovered that the cat currently sold in the BAM (Build A Minifigure)
in Stores is not exactly the same as the one already in catalog (13786pb02) and
this new
one should have its own entry with a relationship to the existing one.

 
Part No: 13786pb02 Name: Cat, Standing with Black Eyes, Bright Pink Nose, Tan Muzzle and Chest, Reddish Brown Stripes Pattern
* 		13786pb02 Cat, Standing with Black Eyes, Bright Pink Nose, Tan Muzzle and Chest, Reddish Brown Stripes Pattern
Parts: Animal, Land {Dark Orange}

The NEW mold is always on the right. Comparisons to the first mold:
_ mold mark on the head
_ less shiny color
_ darker nose
_ eyes are closer
_ fur lines on the head are thinner
_ mouth is larger and thicker
_ cheeks are more angled
_ chest is thinner
_ fur lines on sides are thinner and not the same way
_ no butthole
_ inside hole under is bigger

Here are a few pictures I've done.
Thank you

Nicolas

I think the old "butthole" is just a sprue mark, perhaps they changed
the mold because they didn't want people thinking the sprue mark was a butthole.

Anyway, this piece is a definite downgrade.

Pretty sure this was the injection point. But it's well placed ! 🤣

Looks cheaper, and the sprue mark on the head in just wrong.

But how will it go to the bathroom now?

Nice catch! The mold is not new, though, the alternate number was already added
to the plain part entry some time ago:
 
Part No: 13786 Name: Cat, Standing
* 		13786 Cat, Standing
Parts: Animal, Land

However, we've got confirmation that the BAM cat has a dark pink nose, so
a new entry was still needed:
 
Part No: 13786pb11 Name: Cat, Standing with Black Eyes, Dark Pink Nose, Tan Muzzle and Chest, Reddish Brown Stripes Pattern
* 		13786pb11 Cat, Standing with Black Eyes, Dark Pink Nose, Tan Muzzle and Chest, Reddish Brown Stripes Pattern
