  Good morning and Greetings from Germany

Tonight I got that order as shown. Every ordered part is physically in my shop
and I can do the order without problems.

But of course, I'm kind of scared about the negative quantity left?!?

With kind regards,
Florian

Nobody to comment on this?

  I cannot add wires. I don't see why no decision on the project of wire is
not yet taken, after about 6 months. All it is needed to accept that

Frankly I do not have any knowledge about them and that is why I don't want
to touch this topic, wating here for Randy. And yes as Randy said from the beggining
all my time is consumed by approval of new things, just check the callendar,
we recently are just flooded by many submissions. Lot of people started to subbmitt
many items and photos. It is good we are very glad and happy that many people
want to subbmit, but than there is not time for more to deal for exampe with
thing on road map.
https://www.bricklink.com/calendar.asp?v=C
This month is now almost 600 new items in the catalog and this is not the end
of the month
Last month was over 800
In June and April also over 800. Only in May and in July was less about ca. 500-600.
So since I'm on catalog there is no month with less than 450 items added
to the catalog.

(Feburary and March was after the Robert left)
and there is October nearby when many new sets will be released so more new items
will be submitted

and there are also catalog change requests which there are alredy 8124 changes
from the beggining of the year. We are probably going for the record here as
we have just september, so still three month to the end of the year and the record
was in 2014 with 8381 so a little bit over 250 we need beat the record

So catalog thriving

Mark,

I truly appreciate your dedication and hard work on the catalog, as I do appreciate
the efforts of other catalog/inventory admins. Not just because you wrote this,
but I already wanted to express my gratitude as a Lego fan for your hard work.


P.S. I will make sure to submit many images/items/inventory changes,... once
I get time.

Comments from Submitter:
The evidence will be uploaded soon.

Did you forget to upload the evidence?

Two more comments:
- I don't know if the bricks 3002, 3003 should be kep as alternates or not.
I don't have any evidence for them coming in later releases.
- I had previously submitted a request for adding one red 1*1 tile as extra.
I gave a reliable evidence. My other inv. change requests were accepted using
the same evidence. But that one was rejected with no comment. I would like to
know why (and it helps me to know).

Reza -

What about the clip lights? I see the thick-ring versions in the photos here:

http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=558274

The other Inventory Admin, Paul, is also the one who added the alternates to
the inventory back in 2011.

Did this set ever come with the thin-ring versions?

Cheers,
Randy

Randy,

For keeping early variant or removing them, there is no good solution but I have
my own philosophy
We know the later variations of clips and hinges came in early 1985. I have checked
light gray hinges since long time ago and I am convinced that we should remove
them for this set. Well, if one day somebody gives an evidence, we can add them
back but I don't think this would happen.

I didn't request to remove thin-clips for this set (from 1986) because I
have not checked enough number of used/new copies in the American market. I don't
know if those copies of 7823 sold in USA were imported directly from Denmark
or were produced in USA. This is a complicated case. My doubts raised as I have
seen few neat copies of American 6393 (with American box in the market of USA)
coming with thin clips in most colors (there come with 6393 in four colors) As
I have seen few used copies of 6393 coming with rare thin clips, I believe they
were still available in 1987. Admin Russel removed thin-clips from 6393 in Nov.
2018
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogInvChangeItem.asp?itemType=S&itemNo=6393-1&viewDate=Y&viewStatus=1

Once I have some more data, I come back to 6393. Unfortunately, I don't think
we find any new 6393, let alone an early release!

Now, coming back to 7823, I think it is better I check some more used/new copies
in the market of USA before requesting to remove them. I will come back to this
in few months.

Cheers,
Reza

I don't know if 4081a was ever included in this set, but if you look at the
instructions you'll see that they were at least used when the set was designed
because they are shown in the instructions. And if you build this set according
to the instructions with 4081b the thick rings will block the rear wheels of
the truck. Of course this does not prove that the set actually came with 4081b
and it is not the only set where 4081b was included even though it interferes
with the functionality of the set.

I'll leave the 4081a in the set for now, but we can get back to that once
you have had time to check more sets.

We can remove the 3002 and 3003 from this inventory. They can always be added
as alternates if someone finds convincing evidence that they were included in
this set.

P.S.
I checked
which have sw529
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemIn.asp?M=sw0529&in=B
as I have two of them (polish and english version) both have old variant
15310pb01 with silver logo

Death Star 75159-1 also have minfig with old variant 15310pb01 with silver logo
so mnifig sw529 is correct for now in this set.
For example:

Comments from Submitter:
Inventory of this minifig was wrong from the beggining. As it is visible on image Imperial Logo is white not silver. 15310pb01 - this part's variants till today wasn't recognized. It has variant with white logo added today 15310pb02. They have also diffrent PCCs 6064224 vs. 6235174 Compare also here:

Is it possible to customize or change the thumbnail size when searching in the
catalog? I'm not sure if it's a setting I missed, but it would be useful
to when you're overlooking an entire line to find something specific.

Pictures would be helpful.

Indeed, a picture is worth a thousand words and with them we can help identify
parts very quickly.
