| | Hello, this has been bothering me for a while now, but several of the mask packs
listed either do not exist at all, or are listed with the wrong region.
For starters, the US/non-US distinction -- having spoken with several Canadian
BIONICLE fans about these, Canada had the boxed versions as well. Additionally,
LEGO's naming scheme uses the distinguishment of "IN" and "AM",
rather than "NA" or "US", which leads me to believe that they
were available in both South and North America.
Considering that Connecticut became HQ for LEGO's activities in all of America
around 1998, this also tracks: https://www.lego.com/en-gb/history/articles/g-production-in-brazil/
Further-more, I have found no evidence of 8530, 8559, 8597, or 8600 existing
in boxed form. Just Google them, there are no photos of them - because they do
not exist.
To go through each set one-by-one:

- UK Ad: https://biosector01.com/w/images/bs01/6/63/UK_2001_LEGO_shop_ad.jpg
This one is correct.
This one is correct.
[S=8530-2]
This one does not exist; the image used in a prototype moccup of the box art.

UK Catalogue 2: https://images.brickset.com/library/view/?f=catalogues/c02uk2&p=80
(this onse seems to confused 8559 and 8597).
US Catalogue: https://archive.org/details/lego-shop-at-home-summer-2002/page/n31/mode/2up
This one does exist. The image is a digital moccup.
[S=8559-2]
This one is correct.
This one was released in America.

(has a dead link to 8598)
This one should be labelled non-American polybag version.
This one should be labelled American boxed version.
Krana-Kal:
This one should be labelled American boxed version.
This one is correct.

| | Hello!
I noticed that some sets like the Daily Bugle (76178-1) list the Doc Ock figure
with the arms included, but the one from the Monster Truck set (76174-1) didn't.
Could it be at least included as an alternate to the minifigure alone? It makes
more sense to me for the figure to be offered both with and without the mechanical
arms, but the listings including these are inconsistent.
Thanks for the consideration and any feedback about the situation.

Our current catalog guidelines for minifigures make the condition of handheld
items being added to the minifigure in the instructions the finishing point of
the minifigure build. So, for Doc Ock from
the figure is considered complete on page 5 before the arms are built and added
on the subsequent pages.
Cheers,

Yes.

No. I cannot find a single other instance of this set being in a yellow bucket.
Every one I can find is in the green bucket that says 70 pieces included and
has the image of 2332c01 assembled. Yours seems to be a later production run
when they started to separate these parts. The inventory is best left as is since
it is seems to be the much more common version.
| | Also this is in a yellow cube, production run says 3420? Add a note maybe?
I only had 4 duplo sets, 2 green buckets and 2 yellow ones.

| | Hi all,
I have discovered that the LEGO House Tile has 2 versions, see below.
Appeared in sets 40502, 40501, 4000010 and 21037, with PCC 6089148.
And it was updated to:
And this newer version appears in sets 40503, 40563, 40504 and 40505, with PCC
6320270.
Once the newer tile has been approved I will update the set inventories above
accordingly, and add a relationship between the 2 tiles.
I have put in a request for the version currently in the catalogue to change
it's name and remove it's second PCC.
Any questions just let me know!
Thanks,
Josh

Doesn’t the set’s page show “pending approval” either way?
|
Nope. 
A set that is reserved shows "Inventory In Progress".
A set that is being worked on or is complete and pending approval shows "Inventory
Pending Approval".
Both conditions are poorly labeled.

Studio, without having to check the element IDs from the instructions one by
one 
But I’m not sure I looked at the pending inventories for these ones. I think
I did but I may be confusing with other sets 🤔
