| Hi, I am new to Bricklink and am still learning how it works. I have many old
sets from my son, all from the late 90's and am trying to put them all together.
I have the instruction books for about 98% but am finding the books differ from
the set inventories on this site. For instance the Flame Chaser Helicopter #6531.
I have been using this reference to find all the pieces needed but now am concerned
that the instructions I have differ from the inventory I have been collecting.
Not really sure what my question is, , but am concerned the pieces don't
add up to the instruction books I have. I came online as some of the pieces were
difficult to see very well and was unsure of the colors needed. Why would these
differ from the instructions?
Hope this makes sense

| set 6373 instructions show flags with wave right, maybe the box does too. I was
wondering what people found in the set when they openend it as new: wave right
or left. Inventory in general, parts lists, say that the flags for this set are
wave left. So is the photo on the first page of the instructions wrong or are
the parts lists wrong?

| I noticed that newly merged part 44302 has no description summarising the variants
- I'm not sure if this is a common oversight on all the merged pieces as
I've only checked this one.
I'm used to seeing variant messages for parts that have "soft" variants
- why do these merges not have them? I'd argue they are clearly significant
variants worth noting if they used to be listed separately.
Cheers

| Hello,
[p=553b]
I see that the old 553b Blocked Stud has been merged with the much newer 3626
Vented Stud.
Was I wrong in expecting that it was also to be merged with 553c Hollow Stud?
Wasn't the point to not have to differentiate between the different stud
types?
Thanks,
~Jen

| I have this part in light bluish gray from set# 42107 but it is not listed with
this color...only in dark bluish gray. If someone can list it I can provide a
pic for it.

| Just opened a sealed 816.
* | | 766c96 (Inv) Electric, Wire 12V / 4.5V with 2 Leads, 96 Studs Long with 2 Light Gray Electric, Connector, 2-Way Male Squared Narrow Long with Center Post (x466c96 / 766c01)
Parts: Electric, Wire & Connector |
This is shown as an alternative item in set 970-1
Contents as catalogue except one wire :
My 816 box contains :
1 x 766c28 light grey not 2.
1 x 766c96 light grey.
Can this be accepted as an alternative part entry for the wires ?

| What was the point of merging 44302 and 54657? The other hinge bricks/plates?
All of the element numbers are gone and now it’s going to be harder to find the
specific variant.
This catalog project was a rushed and stupid idea.
Merging parts did not move element numbers over because the merging process doesn’t
come with that built into it. Was that something that site admin considered before
this bright idea? Nope. Why bother ensuring a smooth transition when you can
carry on without a plan in mind? After all, that seems to be par for site administration.
Listening to community complaints? A waste of time.
Improving site functionality? A bigger waste of time.
Considering that a project of this scale would undermine years of progress and
effort from your catalog administrators and community members? An even bigger
waste of time.
Then, catalog administrators and community members have to clean the mess up.
