We may have differing opinions on this - not sure because we've never discussed
it. My opinion is that a sticker is a part. We consider it a part and TLG considers
it a part and includes it in the part count.

If you have an extra one of these parts, then I believe it fits the definition
of an extra part and should be included in the set inventory as such:

41351-1 (Inv) Creative Tuning Shop
404 Parts, 2 Minifigures, 2018
Sets: Friends

Were sticker sheets systematically included as extras in some sets in the way
that other parts are? We really don't know, since we haven't been keeping
data on extra appearances. The current inventory guidelines don't address
how frequently an extra must appear in order to be added to the inventory, but
the unwritten rule has been one time.

What are your thoughts?

In my experience extra sticker sheets are caused by packing errors and they are
not systematically included as extras. This is supported by the fact that I've
bought multiples of the same set from the same supplier and found an extra sheet
in only one of the sets.

In my opinion extras should only be extra parts that Lego put in sets for at
least one production run of the set. For example there are some sets that were
first produced before 1x1 plates were included as extras but later production
runs did include them as extras. For those sets I support the inclusion of them
as extra parts.

But the sticker sheets were clearly not intended to be included as extra parts
and don't appear often enough to justify including them as extra parts.

I too have received an extra sticker sheet a time or two, but never frequently
or consistently. For example, parting out 10 copies of a set, and ending up
with 11 sticker sheets. The extra sticker sheet seems more like a packing error
by TLG, and as such, I don't think I would add them as extras in the set
inventory.

I don't think sticker sheets were ever systematically included as extra parts,
in the way that 1x1 plates, technic pins, and other small parts commonly are.

I agree!

Thanks Randy! That's what I was thinking probably happened. Cool!

Re: set 10205 extra parts question

Topic:

In Catalog, mockingbird writes:

As far as I can see (maybe I overlooked something):

In the regular section of the inventory there are parts that are not used in
the main model (and the instructions or box do not show any secondary model):
1x black brick 1x2
2x black plate 1x1 clip horizontal
2x black slope inverted 75 2x1x3
1x black tile 1x4

But then in the extra parts section of set 10205 are 2x black panel 1x2x3 (2362b).
Shouldn't these two panels also be moved to the regular section?

Or should all these parts be moved to the 'extra' section as the secondary
model is not in the instructions?

You are definitely correct in noticing that there is a problem with this inventory,
so thank you for bringing this to our attention!

The current definition for what constitutes a Regular Item in an inventory on
BrickLink is shown here from https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=1562

"Regular Items - All parts required to build the main model and any secondary
models, plus any other items on the official parts list. In the absence of a
parts list, the instructions, box images, and official part count may be used
to determine as closely as possible the constitution of the Regular section."

So let's go down the list...

Are these parts shown in the main model or any secondary models? No, so this
first criteria points to all of these parts as being extras.

Are these parts shown on the official parts list? There is no official parts
list, so this criteria is inconclusive and directly leads us to the last criteria.

Are the parts shown in the instructions? No.
Are the parts shown on the box images? No.
Are the parts included in the official part count? YES!

The box clearly states that there are 234 parts included in the set. Right now,
the BrickLink inventory lists 232 parts. Therefore, the panels in the Extra Items
section should be included in the Regular Items section. The LEGO Replacement
Parts website also confirms that all of the parts you listed as not being used
in the instructions *were* included in the set.

In conclusion, the inventory will be updated to move the panels to the Regular
Items section.

Thank you for contributing to the accuracy of the BrickLink catalog.

Cheers,
Randy

Hi there,

I was just wondering what happened with the inventory for 10764, Juniors City
Central Airport.

I bought a couple of them a few weeks ago and I was going to do the inventory
for it. Then I saw that the inventory was pending approval so I pulled the sets
apart and put some in my store and left some aside for another day.

Now it is back to N/A.

Obviously it needs to be inventoried??

Cheers
Douglas

The inventory for this set was in a state of waiting for additional stuff to
be added to it for a number of days/weeks. I believe it was removed to allow
someone else to complete it in a more timely fashion. So, yes, it needs to be
inventoried. Please feel free to reserve it for yourself and start the process
if you would still like to do that.

Cheers,
Randy

Hi everyone,

There are two (retired) sets for the Winter Toy Shop set, 10199 and 10249. I
get that one was released in '09 and the other in 2015, and there seems to
be a few bricks more in the second one. But looking at pictures I really can't
seem to pinpoint the differences.

Does anyone know off the top? I just want to know if it's worth the price
difference on the market.
Thanks!

What about inventorying key chains and magnets that normally do not come apart?
There are some rare parts that are ONLY included in these and it would be good

Marek (Hygrotus) and I will be working on an Inventories Roadmap similar to what
Robert (StormChaser) has done for the catalog side of things, but as I am very
new, we will be working on it in the near future rather than right away. I have
added this to my list for inclusion on that roadmap when it becomes available.
At that time, we will start discussions with the community at large on certain
projects just as Robert is doing now.

Thanks for your patience,
