| Hi everyone,
I was trying to find some information on this, but I wasn't able to find
anything, hence my question.
So I am preparing my first submission for the next round of the BLDP, and I am
aware that I should use the most recent palette (5).
My question is that as there are no printed parts in this palette (eg. the Lego
News 2x2 tile), can we still use these or are these also a no-go? Also I have
some minifigures in the set idea, but none of the torsos are included in the
palette. Can we still submit these ideas as is (while including these printed
parts), or do we have to only use very generic and one coloured torsos in our
submissions? Looking at the winners of the previous BLDPs I can see they used
printed torsos etc, but I cannot find out how to only filter to those available
in the palette. I have 'Decorated Bricks On', but still, even if I choose
a torso from there it is listed as unavailable within the selected palette once
inserted.
I hope this makes sense. Thanks for your help in advance!
Regards,
Zsofia

There’s more info on the dedicated forum: https://forum.bricklink.com/viewforum.php?f=13

Yes.

|
There ARE printed parts, and the 2x2 “The LEGO News” newspaper is in it.
A lot of decorated torsos are there too.

Are you sure?

Which torsos exactly?
Also, don’t confuse “marked as unvailable within the selected palette” and the
yellow “!” / “unaivalable on BL.”
I haven’t checked all the torsos but it sometimes happens that some parts are
in the BDP palette but not “known” = not in an inventory on BrickLink yet = without
colours or prices.

| Hi, thank you for your reply.
I have thoroughly checked everything again, and I was on the edge of going crazy
when I realised what was the mistake I made and where.
I tried over and over again and for like the 100th time I saw that until now
I always moved the minifigure's arms by releasing the torsos first. And THIS
is a mistake  . Once I released the torso all the parts included in it appeared
on the right side list as unavailable within the given palette. Meanwhile if
I move them without releasing them first they will be OK. So all my issues originated
from this.
As for the LEGO News, now that must have been some sort of glitch or similar,
as once I deleted the part completely and re-added it from the list it was fine.
So now I am error free and cannot wait the middle of May!
Thanks,
Zsofia

Indeed, it’s better to use the Posing tool for the minifigs (and the 1x4 plate
hinge…): https://studiohelp.bricklink.com/hc/en-us/articles/6502749986967-Posing-minifigs-and-other-special-parts

Maybe you had it in the wrong colour? (It can be easy to recolour a part.)

Happy to help
