I don't know how the word "vibrant" modifies
"coral" in any meaningful way, (not like, "dark" or "Medium")
if there are not multiple shares of coral, (which I am pretty sure is a shade
of pink or red) then there is no value in adding a modifier just to be consistent
with Lego's conventions.
|
Coral is orange, not pink or red.
And “vibrant” means “flashy” as in “Wow, these 1980’s skiing outfits are really
‘vibrant’!”

Sylvain, are you sure my motor is still new? 
|
Sorry if I wasn’t clear: I meant to say it was debattable, with a “New” argument
(screwing isn’t clicking) but starting with a “Used” arguments (opening isn’t
sorting).
I didn’t actually give my own opinion: it’s Used!

So what do you say? Are they still considered to be the same color although they
seem not to be?
|
Er, now they look aubergine (egg plant / dark purple), not (reddish) brown.

It has been sometime I am thinking about this one:
Does opening the screws (located on the top) and removing the motor housing in
order to check the production date make this old motors used? (these motors were
not sealed in any way, so opening the motor is very easy: one only need to open
the screws)
|
Well, the definition says New should have been manipulated for sorting only.
Opening isn’t sorting… unless you sort by production date
Now, it’s about screws, not clicking plastic parts, so it’s less “Used” than,
say, removing arms from a torso, but some may see it as “Used” nonetheless.

 Haha that's crazy, seems the person making the instructions made the mistake.
I guess Bricklink follows the instructions and not the box, so probably it should
stay like this then... Although unless dad has a job as a hairdresser or fashion
designer I do think he looks a bit off with that kids/teenage haircut
|
Well, we’re assuming it’s a “dad”. It could be a “big brother” or a “young uncle”
too
And anyone can change the interpretation (and minifigs) to better represent their
own situation.

LOL, so the Christmas giftset 40292 has a male and a female hairpiece so that
the child can be a boy or a girl (and they're both on the box). But someone
uploaded a picture where the alternate hair is put on the DAD's head, kind
of making it a dad's hairdo optionality feature
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemInv.asp?S=40292-1
|
Actually, it IS a “dad’s hairdo optionality feature”: there are two versions
of the instructions and each one uses different hair for the dad.

I added three new types close to the beginning and added a disclaimer that this
is only an experimental project. The purpose of the framework on that page is
to gauge desirability. If members want to keep this list and BrickLink agrees
to keep it, then it will be improved with better descriptions, better photos,
and better ordering of the entries on the list (possibly by chronological order?).

Chronogical order and something like “discontinued,” or more simply the era /
production years next to the title.

I have a web site, this is my product line, I want to have a section titled "figures".
Which of these items would you expect to find in that section?
|
This question is flawed.
You should add things that are clearly not figures, like cars or houses, and
things on the line, like Cars (the movie) characters.
As you’re proposing it, you’re showing only things that could be construed as
“figures,” so people will try to find some that wouldn’t be.
The other questions don’t show that flaw as you’re trying to subcategorize figures
and show (what you expect to be) different subcategories on each page.

As there are two plates on each sprue, the numbers should be halved.
