  They weren't reverted. I changed the pieces you added to be the regular parts
in the main inventory. I found a lot of evidence on this set, and I believe that
the other versions that were in the main inventory were never in the set so removed
them.

Ah, thanks for clearing it up.

BTW - I still haven't found documentation of the dome tops with hollow studs.
But I'm convinced that the set came with these - either originally or as
a variant.

Is it not used once Lego puts it on the backing? The sticker is then stuck to
the backing that needs to be peeled off to put it on the Lego element. So if
it has not been put on the original backing it is new. Once it is stuck on the
white backing it is used.

Nope, a new, blank sticker sheet already has the backing. The backing is like
a sprue. LEGO doesn’t put the sticker on the backing, they print on the sticker
while it’s on the backing.

So it’s the printing that makes the new, blank sticker sheet not new anymore.
A new sticker should be pristine white (or transparent), unprinted.

Bump!

Nobody know how to deal with dimensions?

  Hello,

I was looking to define some missing parts dimensions.
With standard bricks, it's easy, but how do we define dimensions when parts
are not standard?

Maybe I miss something, but I didn't find the rules there:
https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=261

For example:

 
Part No: 73037pb01  Name: String Reel Winch 2 x 4 x 2 (Light Gray Drum) with Black and Yellow Danger Stripes Pattern (Sticker) - Set 6361
* 
73037pb01 String Reel Winch 2 x 4 x 2 (Light Gray Drum) with Black and Yellow Danger Stripes Pattern (Sticker) - Set 6361
Parts: String Reel / Winch
The size is [2 x 4 x 2] or [2 x Y x 2] ?

 
Part No: 2426c01  Name: Technic Rack Winder
* 
2426c01 (Inv) Technic Rack Winder
Parts: Technic
The size is [2 x 5 x 2] or [2 x 4 x 2] ?

 
Part No: 6249  Name: Brick, Modified 2 x 4 with Pins
* 
6249 Brick, Modified 2 x 4 with Pins
Parts: Brick, Modified
The size is [2 x 6] or [2 x 4] ?

[p=bb73]
The size is [4 x 4] or [Y x Y x Y] ?

PS: I put "Y" in my examples, because I don't have the parts in front of
me.

"Pet Peeve d'jour"

I'm sure you're not peeved daily, Lisa

We're talking about adopting a dog, as my son has out grown his allergy.
If we do, what do you think about naming our new pet, Peeve?

But seriously, it makes sense what you're proposing

Oh, my gosh. Get a lab! I had German Shepherds for over 30 years, and we finally
let my son, Daniel, have a choice. He wanted a lab, so we found someone with
lab puppies and he chose a yellow one and named him Archer. He has been with
us almost 4 years and he is the happiest dog I know! I take him to the dog park
almost daily (it is very close to the post office!) and I love to watch him play
with other dogs, or just to play with me: he loves tennis ball, frisbee, tug
toys, etc. A really good, friendly family dog! (and doesn't have the double
coat shedding that the German Shepherds have!)

Lisa

No, No, No. Get a cat.

I have a few stickered parts, acquired second-hand, from sets 60009-1, 75872-1
and 75051-1. I'd like to be able to inventory them properly in my collection,
but all or most of the stickered part catalog entries for these sets have not
been created yet on BrickLink. I could submit catalog additions for all of them,
but I'm a bit hesitant since I've never done that before on BrickLink,
and I don't have all the stickered parts for each set. Are there any of
you guys out there who have one or more of these sets and could submit the stickered
parts? It would be a great help. (Otherwise I'll get around eventually
to figuring out how to do it myself.)
