Actually,
The powers that be will be removing 3 of them from the catalogue in a few weeks.

I really like the extensive catalog, and think that most of the differences (like
the jumpers or tiles with groove, etc) are really useful.

But when you get to things like this, with a 1 x 2 x 6 arch, having something
like 4 variants, doesn't it make it too hard for sellers AND buyers?

I get the raised arch difference, that is notable, but this thin/thick thing?

Hi all,

Thanks, Martin

The list of available colors is generated automatically based on the set inventories.
So unless the item has been cataloged in that color as part of a set, it can't
appear in the list.

You can still list the item for sale the same way you would any other color.

Ah, that makes more sense. I was unfamiliar with the word, but I looked it up.

I have a magnifier with a light that gets me part numbers 98% of the time, but
Hygrotus' decision to become an entomologist and probably a bunch of grad

like an overreaction to the situation.

I very much agree. This abiguity should be part of both the items for sale (sellers
not wanting to bother to distinguish) and the wanted lists (buyers not caring
whether they get the on or the other variety).

Taken a bit further, for the wanted lists this might take the form of 'any
shade of green', 'a brick of width 2' or 'the a or c variety
of 4085'.

Wishful thinking, but if this #1 upgrade is implemented in Bricklink XL, I am
all for it, despite whatever changes they might make to the interface.

I think that there should be an option to do a general search for wantlists or

The database isn’t made for this, and the only way now is to have “undetermined”
variants, which just adds another variant, fouls the price guide, and makes half
the buyers unhappy.

What would be nice would be “virtual undetermined parts,” and inventories and
sellers should still have to use the determined variants but searches and WLs
wouldn’t.

But that means modifying the database and the site too deeply, at least for now….

There are no plans to do so, but I hope that once the regular sales period is
finished Bricklink allows the inventory of these sets to be added to the catalog
so people can add them to a want list and buy the parts they need to build them.
Since they use mostly common parts, I think many AFOLs would prefer to build
them with the parts in their own collection, and just buy any ones they are missing.

Not only would this generate revenue for Bricklink by increased sales, it would
be an olive branch to the sellers who have been completely excluded from this
promotion.

Bricklink has done so much to build the AFOL community and it has become a verb
within our vocabulary (much like Google has in the general population). It would
be a sad irony if the sets created by Bricklink to celebrate AFOLs cannot be
Bricklinked by AFOLs.

I voted no.

From what I understand from reading about these sets, these aren't going

a buyer from creating their own wanted list and purchase the parts without having
the set in the catalog.

Josh

They're still more official than BrickArms, which is also in the catalog...

Plus, the whole "exciting" part about the whole project, according to BL itself,
is the fact that it's an official cooperation with the LEGO Group.

So yes, I definitely see the irony.

I objected to adding BrickArms as well, for what it's worth. Fat lot of good

I guess it does in a way as you can search for "arch 1 x 6 x 2 -curved -pattern"
if you don't care which one you get, but it only really works for searches
and not wants lists. So yes having a metadata tag to link them would be good.
Same for a number of other parts with minor variations that may be inconsequential
for some people but important for others.

Parts: Arch

12939 Arch 1 x 6 x 2 - Thin Top without Reinforced Underside

I get the raised arch difference, that is notable, but this thin/thick thing?

The thin / thick thing is described in the notes, and mm dimensions given. Personally,
the difference between the old and new style (with/without the reinforcement)
is enough, but I I can understand why the different variants are there.

Yes, the variants are important:

1. You can fit some parts under the thin and medium thick parts that you can’t
fit under the thick one. E.g.

20309 Window 1 x 4 x 1 2/3 with Spoked Rounded Top
Parts: Window

2. Collectors find it very important to get the right variant.

The odd part here would be the thin one: it was short lived (a year). Too fragile?
Too thin (it leaves a noticeable gap)?
Anyway, it’s here and came before the medium thick and was already in the catalogue
(2013) when the medium thick version was spotted / included in the catalogue
(2016).
There was no reason to merge thin and medium thick then and there’s no much reason
to do it now as we would still need to keep the old one.

Wouldn’t it be as confusing to have a “thick” version and “more or less thin”
one?

Why is this part so expensive in DBG??

6246a Minifigure, Utensil Tool Screwdriver - Narrow Head - 6-Rib Handle
Parts: Minifigure, Utensil

The long answer:

It only came out in 2005, and for all intents and purposes, the only fully-distributed
set it was in was 7251 Darth Vader Transformation. Until Lego released an updated
version of that in 2017, it was a fairly high-demand set because that scene in
Revenge of the Sith is iconic. But sets released in 2004-2005 typically had short
shelf lives because of Lego's color transformation and changes in the company.
So higher demand + lower supply = a fairly expensive set -- it still averages
$28 for 53 pieces, or $0.53/piece, and I remember seeing it go for $35-$40
a few years back. Since there are very few exclusive parts in the set besides
the figs, the few exclusive/rare parts get priced up extremely high, likely because
of people trying to Bricklink the set.

41999 was bad enough, but that was more quantity, a smaller audience, and worldwide.

It's not like they are fringe characters either, a lot of people like these
two, it just doesn't make sense to not release these popular characters worldwide
to take advantage of the movie.

I'm all for scumbag reselling, you have to hate the game not the player.
LEGO shouldn't be enabling this in the first place, just like 41999, just
like the series 18 Policeman. I'm all for taking advantage as a seller, but
I don't agree the opportunity should exist in the first place.

I'm hoping they do release worldwide, and not limited. It would be stupid

See image.
How is this addressed in the Bricklink inventory catalog - or should it be?

I encounter this occasionally, I just make a note in the description. I do think
however that images and notes should be added to the catalog.

I've also seen pictures of "instructions" that are likely just images of
the box art (shape is wrong etc)

Some torsos have "ammunition belt" in their description and others "bandolier".
My personal vote is "ammunition belt". It makes it difficult to find a torso
in the catalog when you don't know the character or theme.

For example: "Torso Pharaoh's Quest Tan Waistcoat, White Shirt, Bandolier
and Silver Buckle Pattern (Jake Raines) / Tan Arms / Yellow Hands" (973pb0781c01)

"Torso Monster Fighters with Ammunition Belt Pattern / Dark Tan Arms / Yellow
Hands" (973pb1113c01)

These two items are similar-looking.

You can submit any name change you would like using the following form:

https://www.bricklink.com/catalogReq.asp?itemType=P

The catalog admins will then decide whether the change will be accepted or not.

Randy,

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly! (And nice avatar, Blacktron II forever!)

That makes sense, and my only counter-point to that is that Brickset uses info
from here to list minifigures, and being a collector, it's nice to be able
to have each of the alternate figs listed in a collection. Additionally, it gives
sellers more options to sell unique minifigs as well.

Just giving my two cents.

Thanks!
-Kevin

P.S. I'm curious how those decisions are made, is there one person that decides
on all these things, or do a bunch of admins just come to an agreement? Just
wondering

In Catalog Requests, randyf writes:

The minifigs listed as Counterparts in any of these sets should not have been
accepted to the catalog. They do not fit the definition for how BrickLink defines
the minifigs, and the alternate faces would be considered play scenarios. I will
need to discuss this with the other admins, but my first thoughts are to *not*
accept further Counterpart figures and reverse the decision of the prior figures
and have them marked for deletion.

Cheers,
Randy

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:

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] ?

2426c01 (Inv) Technic Rack Winder
Parts: Technic

The size is [2 x 5 x 2] or [2 x 4 x 2] ?

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.

Photos side by side of both of them, on left sw0530 from 2014, on right sw0993
from 2019. Differences are very elusive. White lines of printing are thiner,
especially on front emblem and on shoulders.

That simply looks like a print fidelity difference. This happens with many parts.
The printing can change as the equipment wears down, the printing can change
as advances are made in printing technology, the printing can change with part
alignment during the printing process, etc.

In other words, looks like the same minifig to me.

Please someone pay attention while opening them and post here. I noticed when
opening my case that several of them had inner polybags and I couldn't make
any sense of it at the time. In at least one case the entire minifig was inside
the inner bag, but others it wasn't. I couldn't see a pattern. But
while taking pics to inventory them I noticed that some torsos have their arms
on flat instead of slightly forward and at least one of them I know was one of
the ones in the polybag. Could it be that a Chinese factory makes those inner
polybags and the rest is being assembled elsewhere?

Re: Minifig Inventory for 70831?

(I thought I'd replied to this message, but it didn't seem to go through?
Either way, here goes).

Thanks! Glad the images are working

I can update that Unikitty pic when I
get home tonight.

As far as the Unikitty figs, I figured we'd have the sleeping one as the
main fig (since it's the one in the main instructions) and the other one
as the counterpart (that's what we did when I inventoried the Apocalypseburg
Unikitty set)

And as far as Rex goes, I wasn't sure whether or not to do his backpack as
part of the fig, but figured I should include the backpack (thinking back
to Mos Eisley stormtroopers in sets I have that have brick built backpacks) but
I shouldn't include the trans-light blue pieces (because Sweet Mayhem
has similar boosts, but aren't part of the main minifig).

Either way works, just let me know, because I'd obviously have to tweak the
inventory to put his backpack pieces back in there.

Thanks!

I've been uploading new parts for 70831 the past couple days, and I'm
just about ready to do a full inventory on the set, I'm just waiting for
3 minifigs that I've tried to add to be approved: tlm145, tlm146, tlm147.

I know that they're in line numerically behind other figs that will be approved
once the Apocalypseburg (7084) is approved, can I get an admin to approve them
so I can inventory them and get them added to 70831?

Thanks!

They are being held up because of issues concerning the exact build. The rocket
guy has blasts coming out of the rockets. However, we need to decide whether
or not to include the whole blaster backpack assembly or not. Sometimes those
decisions take a while.

The unikitties have similar problems. First, I don't know if we will approve
two different constructions of a minifigure for a single set. This has been done
before, but only on a case-by-case basis.

The sleeping one will get approved for sure since it comes from the primary build.
However, you need to reshoot that one with the head attached as shown in the
instructions. The current pending image shows the head 1/2 stud offset to the
right. It shouldn't cover the Reddish Brown 1 x 1 at all.

I realize the photos on the box and instructions show the sleeping kitty built
the way you have it in your photo, but we try to stick close to the instructions
whenever possible.

Thanks for you contributions so far, especially the images.

Go ahead and move the inventory to pending status using autofill before it drops
off the reservation list. You can add the figs to the pending inventory and the
Inv Admins will address any problems they see.

I guess that means: Happy birthday elias3!

Indeed, Happy Birthday!

thanks!!

I see that I had Duplo's first push train

Well, the first train that looked like a train and had tracks to roll on.
There were Duplo connecting cars before 1980. Even without tracks, connected
cars very much spell train to a 2-year-old
