  Hi all.

I'm currently adding counterparts to the catalogue for this set

 
Set No: 9395  Name: Pick-Up Tow Truck
* 
9395-1 (Inv) Pick-Up Tow Truck
954 Parts, 2012
Sets: Technic: Model: Traffic

I didn't have the complete set when it arrived at my home, and upon dismantling
, I found that none of the stickered panels and other parts were not in the catalogue,
and so I've started to add them.

I'm stuck on 1 part.

It's the LBG 1x9 lift arms that have a stickered anti-slip tread pattern.

I can see one in the main image as above, and it seems to be on a WHITE 1x9 lift
arm, (underneath the driver's door) but there are no White 1x9 arms listed
within the set's inventory.

Can anyone verify whether this is indeed the case?

Also, if anyone has the whole set, can you let me know how many of the stickers
were applied to the appropriate lift arms and what colour they were, as the sticker
sheet is showing 6 of the anti-slip treads, and there are 5 of the LBG lift arms
within the inventory.

Regards,

Paul

Hi stickers must be always applied as instruction shows. If instruction is imprecise
then official photos of model should be check. In this case it easy.
Two stickers with anti-slip tread pattern are applied to LBG 1x9 liftarms.
Instruction book2 pages 20 and 22
https://www.lego.com/biassets/bi/6004021.pdf
Four are applied to four black 1x8 tiles
Instruction book3 pages 13 and 14
https://www.lego.com/biassets/bi/6013913.pdf

Thank you so much for that.

The tile is obviously what has stumped me as I have those as well..

I'll be adding that as well too...

So, do you think that the main image has an incorrect coloured part?

Paul

You van try this program is free

Awesome!

I've just done it, and yes, you are right it is so simple....

Thank you so much!

Now I can add so much more to the catalogue!

Hi all.

I'm pretty sure, like a lot of us who use this website, we have items that
are not within this catalogue's database, and would like to submit images
(like stickered parts)

I have tried so many times in the past, to re-size images to get under the 800x600
pixel limit, and have failed.

I can understand why the limit IS there, but with this day and age of high resolution
cameras on mobile phones, I have found that I still can't re-size images
to a size suitable.

Is it possible that BL's programmers will understand that this limit can
be lifted for image submissions ONLY.

for example, I submit an image of an item, and it's too big to use within
the catalogue, the CAT ADMIN can use that image, and re-size it suitably, as
not all of us are knowledgeable of various programs that will allow this to happen,
as this will really 'encourage' people to submit images, because I have
often 'given-up' trying to re-size images, and I'm pretty sure that
I'm not the only one.

If this isn't a suitable thing to do, then maybe someone can point me in
the right direction so that I can do this?

Regards,

Paul

1 plain Black one, with a different eye pattern from the one with the hearts

Lego.com shows a black horse in sets 4777 & 4864:
DUPLO HORSE 2X3X3 1/2
Element 4143789
Designnummer 75725

But it's the eye pattern that is the issue here as well.

There are, I suspect, 2 plain horses with different eye patterns.

As for the black horse, again Brickset confirms that there are sets that contain
this horse which has no hearts on it's flank.

3 set have this, but 1 has a different eye pattern , so the other 2 sets 'seem'
to have the one with this type.

So confusing and annoying.

To summarise,

There are 2 horses missing from the BL catalogue, and Brickset confirms that
they do exist.

1 plain Black one, with a different eye pattern from the one with the hearts

I can see that it comes in this set

  I can confirm that the White Horse does exist!

I used Brickset to find it, and it has this Element number :- 4261500

Can you verify?

Paul

Right,

Digging deeper, I can see that this particular horse seems to be allocated to
4 sets, but only 2 have images that can confirm that the horse has no eyelashes,
and the one that does is this one.

The 3rd set's horse has head armour on the horse which means we can't
see the head.

Can a catalogue entry be made for this particular horse?

Images and other sites verify this.

  Hi Cat Admins.

I have in my possession, 2 Duplo Horses which are not in the catalogue, but they
are clearly marked as LEGO.

1 is a black one, essentially the same as this:-

 
Part No: horse02c01pb01  Name: Duplo Horse with Movable Head with Silver Mane, Saddle, and Hearts Pattern
* 
horse02c01pb01 Duplo Horse with Movable Head with Silver Mane, Saddle, and Hearts Pattern
Parts: DUPLO, Animal

but has no hearts on it's left flank.

The second is a white one, with no extra markings except around the eye, which
are eyelashes, making the horse look quite feminine(?)

I have no idea as to what sets they would have come in, but looking at the listings
of this type of horse, we have the one with the hearts on it's flank, in
Black, and White, and the white one has a 'saddle' print which is not
the same as the Black one, so maybe a separate listing needs to be done for that
one?

I'll see if I can produce images for these two, but be aware that I can't
get them to be re-sized enough to be used, as I'm not computer savvy enough
for that.

Can anyone verify what I'm saying?

Due to selling the other similar part in a recent order, I've worked out that this set has the above part as an alternate item, hence this request

OK Jangbricks video review confirms your findings
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oEfzS34MrB0 time 3:58

I didn't look at the set review, but I can confirm that the set was sealed
when I parted it out.

I sold the older version of that part a couple of days ago, and when I went to
find it, I had the newer version.

Which is why I said that I'd 'worked it out', because I didn't
have that part new within my inventory, and the only set that it came from was
the one I'd parted out.

But, anyway, you've just confirmed it, and I was able to get the correct
version from my unbuilt UCS Slave one, to ensure that my customer got the correct
version.

Regards,

Paul

Please how can I add them to the catalog?

Thank you
Waltraud

They are already in the catalogue.

Look in the instructions category of the set, and you will see that the last
image is showing the 'tall' booklet.

Just make a note when you list them, stating that they are of the tall type?

It is not new. All the studs on the top are whitish and not 100% blue. It looks
strange. I am not sure if this is faded or not. If it is faded, it is faded in
a consistent way.
Let me know if you have or had this baseplate in the past and how you find mine
( it has dust on it but that is not an issue)

I would say it is sun damage.

Not sun damage.

If that was the case, then the blue should be of a darker hue or in the worst
case, lighter.

This is very similar to wear and print rub off the studs.

If one looks, you have to agree that the actual baseplate is White, and the Blue
is the print...

My condolences on your loss.

Thanks, she was 13 and 1 month when she passed.

  
  The Mosaik programme calculated that I need to have 559 1x1 plates in Sand Blue...

Have you thought about using 1 x 1 tiles instead? They're plentiful in both
sand blue and sand green.

I've not thought about that, because I'm not sure if they would stand
out noticeably....

It's a thought....

I'll look into this.

Thank you,

Paul

Hi Guys,

I'm really cheesed off right now, as I decided to dip my toe into the frustrating
world of BL's Mosaik designer, to re-create a picture of my recently passed
away dog.

The reason I'm cheesed off?

The Mosaik programme calculated that I need to have 559 1x1 plates in Sand Blue...


We used to fight over the 1x1 plates in Sand Green to complete the Statue of
Liberty and Yoda sets which in turn really pushed the prices of them up, and
then Lo and Behold, LEGO comes out with the Brickheadz Owen and Blue set, which
is now going to lower the prices... (need 288 of them as well... )

But with the 'unofficial' policy of old colours getting re-made (Dark
Turquoise comes to mind), I wonder if LEGO will actually re-release the 1x1 plate
in Sand Blue?

Ah well, rant/grumble over, I'm seriously debating of whether I could get
away by cutting a 1x2 plate in half?

Regards,

Paul
