  The appearance of 4085b in this inventory seems very strange and may be a mistake. All other sets from that time have 4085c, so I think we should delete all 4085b until we have proof that they came in a sealed copy. Any thoughts?

It is strange that it's the only set with 4085b so many years after its last
appearance and even more years before it was brought back. But it was specifically
added in earlier change requests long ago.

Unfortunately the attached messages from back then are no longer available. So
we don't know the source for those requests. Could possibly be used sets
that didn't have original part variants. Or soneone not familiar with the
variants may have thought the clip was thin when it was really thick. Or maybe
a few stray parts from old stock were left somewhere and made their way into
this set.

Comments from Submitter:
see: https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1145375

Thanks for adding the new part. But the image for part 7864 still shows the output
cover plug. It should probably be replaced with an image of a transformer without
the output cover plug.

Comments from Submitter:
I got blindsided again here. I've parted out this set several times and I didn't expect to learn anything more. So I hope these will go through, but I don't have a picture.

I'm not sure how to add an extra in an alternate color.

For parts 4716 and 32269 you are adding the alternate colors with quantity 8.
The items in the regular section have quantity 2. Is this correct or should the
alternates also have quantity 2?

Got this set recently. I found out that the 1 x 1 trans red goes on the back of the camera and there is also one extra.

For additional evidence I found a Youtube video showing the opening of a sealed
set https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ugq_4j0WAw

Comments from Submitter:
Source: sealed set contents, found on Catawiki, Lot reference 27453349. Note that the batch code can be seen.

I am not sure if 3002 should stay as an alternate, so feel free to delete it.

I have deleted 3002. It can always be added again if we find evidence that it
was included in this set.

* 
7864-1 (Inv) Transformer / Controller 12V
28 Parts, 1980
Sets: Train: Supplemental: 12V

* Delete 1 Part bb529 Light Gray 12VAC Output Cover for Train 12V Transformer Type 3

Comments from Submitter:
This cover come with
 
Part No: 7864  Name: Electric, Train 12V Transformer for 220V - Type 3
* 
7864 Electric, Train 12V Transformer for 220V - Type 3
Parts: Electric, Train
(plugged) and not separated.

[p=bb529] exist on catalog as a replacement part.
It should not appear on inventories.

Like battery cover.
As example:
 
Part No: 40533  Name: Electric, Train 9V RC Train Remote Control, Battery Compartment Cover with Non-Removable Screws
* 
40533 Electric, Train 9V RC Train Remote Control, Battery Compartment Cover with Non-Removable Screws
Parts: Electric, Train



The cover does come plugged into the transformer and is also shown as such on
the image of the transformer. Based on that I agree that it should not be listed
as a separate part in the inventory of this set.

Comments from Submitter:
As Sticker-sheet also contain Swiss Rails stickers.
(same as inventory 7740-1)

As far as I can see on the image of the stickersheet the stickers with white
print are all DB. For the other railways there are only stickers for the doors
with the logo in black and the number 7745 in white.

That means that this stickered part should not be added to the inventory for
set 7745.

Comments from Submitter:
This VERY nearly slipped by me. I was actually pack it for a customer and saw it. He graciously said he didn't mind if I assembled the minifig for the catalog.

There are two of cas060a in the inventory so I'm assuming there should also
be two of the alternate cas552. I changed the quantity.

I checked the set in my personal collection that was built from a sealed set
and never mixed with parts from other sets. I can confirm that 3942c and 4476b
are both in my set. But I have the old version 4081a.

What catalog was there in the box? (Id?)
Is you box American, Canadian or European?

I bought this set a long time ago and no longer have the box and catalog. So
unfortunately I can't answer your questions.

I was unaware of the variant. Actually totally unaware of weighted bricks before
I got this set. But I still have 2 of the 4 that I had and they have dimples.
I don't think there is any reason to keep the non-dimple in the inventory.

Thanks for checking your set. I have removed 73090a from the inventory and changed
73090b to regular.

  I've read about brittle blue being a period in time where the plastic turned
'weird' i suppose for whatever reason? However in my experience as a
seller, I fully believe it is a result of exposure to sunlight and such. Nothing
more. Blue, white, yellow and grey's turn all sorts of weird shades over
time. It's inevitable... I don't understand why we always talk about
brittle blue but not brittle yellow? If the part is not the right shade i'd
just throw it in the trash.

The term brittle blue is not just a discoloration. It is a bad quality plastic
that breaks easily. Other color bricks may discolor, but they don't just
break apart like the brittle blue pieces.

Comments from Submitter:
I think the part 3228b was added as regular because it appear on the box.

Picture of sealed content will follow

I cannot link the pictures url
You can ask me by PM

Why should 3228b be alternate? By principle "first come first serves", the earlier
variant 3228b should be regular and 3228c be alternate. Am I missing something?

According to our guidelines the earlier variant is normally added as regular
and the later variant as alternate. So this request to switch the regular and
alternate part will be rejected.

Hi,

Did you find an evidence of existence of 3228b in this set?
The picture I found is from 1997, I did not found an earlier picture of this
set sealed.

I have seen several pictures of used sets with 3228b. No sealed sets unfortunately.
But it is likely that Lego would use leftover stock of 3228b in the first production
runs of this set before they started using the new variant 3228c.

Comments from Submitter:
The baseplate 6100pb01 appeared only on the instructions. It does not exist. I contacted the two sellers selling them, and one of them checked and confirmed he has 6100pb02. The other didn't reply yet.
No 6100pb01 has been sold for the last 6 months.
I checked about 50 copies of the set 6382 in various markets but the baseplate were always 6100pb02.

I have a sealed copy of this set, but I don't know when it was produced.
What exactly is the difference between the 2 baseplate versions? I may be able
to check mine tonight when I get home.

Josh

Hi Josh,

Compare the white lines:
https://img.bricklink.com/ItemImage/PN/9/6100px2.png

http://www.peeron.com/scans/6382-1/3

ButI believe the one on the instructions does not exist. For the last 15 years,
nobody added any photo of it on BL, none is sold, none is find... it should be
just a prototype, but never produced for the market.

Bests
Reza

Lack of image certainly points to the fact that it was never included in the
final product. The only evidence I have found of its existance is in the instructions
and box art. So we can conclude that it must have been a prototype part and the
print was changed before the set went into production.

* Add 1 Part x870cc02 Black Electric, Train 4.5V Whistle Thin with Black Base

Comments from Submitter:
This set has never contained a thick Whistle. The think whistle has only existed in prototype form, and was used to make the pictures for the box and catalogs.
The picture of the Bricklink listing is just a scan from a catalog, from the box or from the instructions.
The whistle has not been listed for sale on bricklink for at least the last 6 yeas. Non of my contacts who know this set very well have ever seen this whistle, so I think we can conclude that set 118 has never been released with a thick whistle.

I will accept this request to remove x870a due to lack of evidence for its appearance
in this set. It can always be added back as an alternate if someone finds evidence
that it did appear in this set.

I see Paul already accepted these requests, but I am not sure about the black
44567b. The images are actually not in good enough positions to see the groove
or not, and it actually looks to me like it has the groove. I will need to see
more examples where the part is clear and in a position to see the groove or
not, and this change may be reversed or altered.

Cheers,
Randy

You might be right about that. On closer inspection it does look like it could
have a groove.

How long is typical for them to be approved and added? And, can I perhaps expect
a message or some other notification that "your item has been added", or similar?

Thanks,
Miles (C0lsanders_)

They were already approved on Monday if you're talking about these two.

  Hi,
I just have a 62436c01pb01 in my hands also its pair and both have 2006 as the
year on them. Do I have a different part or the catalog needs an update?

Thanks,
Tamas

The year on the part is the copyright year. The year in the Bricklink catalog
is when it was first included in a set. This is often a year later because of
the time it takes to design and then produce parts.

This was a mistake in the Lego replacement parts site. The correct part is shown in the parts list in the instructions.

Comments from Submitter:
I have just opened a sealed set today and it's in front of me. I was intending to sell it sealed until I got water inside through the holes in the lid..... oops.

You can verify in the instructions, the intermediate and final build, no need for a fourth 3L axle. It's not even here to keep as an extra. There are only three.

The official piece count on the packaging is 44. This change brings the piece
count down to 43 on BrickLink, so we are now somehow missing a part. I went and
checked the data from the online LEGO database, and they have three Light Gray
4265c listed as coming in the set, but the BrickLink inventory only shows two.
How many are in your set?

Cheers,
Randy

In this request one was added as extra, so that would mean that there were three
in the set.

I was checking to see if there were three or really four. I found evidence that
the set came with four, which would mean three as regular and one as extra. The
online LEGO database backs this up, but I wanted to see if an error was made
here or not. In any case, something fishy is going on and an inventory note may
need to made.

Cheers,
Randy

I went through the instructions and it appears that only two 4265c are needed
to build this. Unless I overlooked one. So it could be a mistake in the Lego
database.

Comments from Submitter:
Part is listed as 2518 Plant, Tree Palm Leaf Large 10 x 5. Correct part is actually 6148 Plant, Tree Palm Leaf Small 8 x 3. Look at box artwork and first page of instructions, it is using the smaller size leaf.

I checked the set in my personal collection and can confirm that part 6148 is
in this set.

Comments from Submitter:
I own three of this sets. I am absolutely sure about bricks quantities. Thanks. Giovanni

Hi there, Giovanni!

Were all three of these sets originally purchased new by you and not mixed with
the contents of other sets?

Hi Randy,

yes, sets I purchased were all sealed and bricks inside were new. I am very interested
in Minitalia and I checked sets accurately to exclude variations in bricks inside.
Actually, I discovered the existence of two slightly different boxes, I will
post photos in catalog next days.

Thanks, Giovanni.

Hi Giovanni,

The original inventory was based on the box art. Box art is not always clear
about the exact parts that are in the set. In this case there must be a window
in the back of the house that was not visible on the box art. That explains an
additional window and less bricks. Thank you for checking and updating this inventory
based on sealed set contents.

https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=1562#extraItems

Removing or Changing Extra Items - Extra parts can vary depending on when
and where a set was manufactured, meaning that some new sets may include them
and others may not. The quantity of these extra parts can also vary. Extra parts
are typically not removed or reduced in quantity unless it can be determined
that they were originally added or increased in error.

This extra part was found in some sealed copies of this set so it will not be
removed.

This set was redesigned as mentioned in the inventory note below the inventory:

"There are at least 2 different versions of instructions for this set. The differences
for the second version are indicated in this inventory in the Alternate Items
section with Match ID 99.

Quick overview of redesign: In the central gear system two white 1 x 9 liftarms
are replaced by two white 1 x 10 Technic bricks."

This request will be rejected.

You cannot add a plain part to the Counterparts section of an inventory in place
of a stickered part that is currently missing from the BrickLink catalog.

The correct procedure to follow is:

(1) Add the stickered part to the BrickLink catalog:
https://www.bricklink.com/wantedCatalog.asp?catType=P

Help on adding an item to the BrickLink catalog:
https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=71

(2) Add an image to the BrickLink catalog for the stickered part:
https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogImageAdd.page?itemType=P

Help on adding an image to the BrickLink catalog:
https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=87

(3) Fill out an Inventory Change Request to add the stickered part to the inventory
after it is approved by the Catalog Administrators.

Cheers,
Paul

Should 3070bpb025 stay in this inventory? Is there any evidence that it ever
came in this set?

Extra parts from sealed set.

You added 30292pb039 twice. I'm assuming one of those should be 30292pb038.
I added that one for you.

Set No: 724  Name: 12V Diesel Locomotive with Crane and Tipper Wagon
* 
724-1 (Inv) 12V Diesel Locomotive with Crane and Tipper Wagon
147 Parts, 1972
Sets: Train: 12V

* Delete 1 Part 801 Yellow Door 1 x 3 x 3 Left with Window and Vertical Handle
* Delete 1 Part 802 Yellow Door 1 x 3 x 3 Right with Window and Vertical Handle
* Delete 4 Part wheel2a Red Train Wheel Spoked for Motor
* Delete 4 Part trainrim Black Train Rim for 4.5V & 12V Locomotive Wheels
* Delete 4 Part wheel2ac01 Red Train Wheel Spoked (for motor), with Black Train Rim for 4.5V & 12V Locomotive Wheels (wheel2A / trainrim) (Counterpart)
* Add 1 Part 802a Yellow Door 1 x 3 x 3 Right with Window and Horizontal Handle
* Add 1 Part 801a Yellow Door 1 x 3 x 3 Left with Window and Horizontal Handle
* Add 4 Part wheel2ac01 Red Train Wheel Spoked (for motor), with Black Train Rim for 4.5V & 12V Locomotive Wheels (wheel2A / trainrim)

The trainrims came always assembled before 1980.
The first photo is a sealed one. In all the other photos I found, the doors 802a
and 801a appear with stickers applied on them. So I guess this was the only variant
used for this set. (not 100% sure though)

I have accepted your request for the wheels with rims. I would like to take a
bit more time to decide about the doors.

I know that old set inventories are not always reliable when it comes to part
variants, but I would like to give other people a chance to weigh in on this
before I delete a part variant from a set inventory.

I considered the doors 803 and 804 "undetermined" so why I requested to remove
them. Since my request, I found two used sets coming with the other version (that
looks like the photo of 803 and 804: with vertical handles) In each used copy,
we can see one door with sticker "724" applied. The stickers of both copies look
old and in bad condition, make me believe they were applied many years ago
I attach photos of one copy, which is incomplete (missing few parts or replaced
by other part) The other copy is removed from Markplaats.

Based on this I'll leave the 801 and 802 doors in the inventory and I'll
make the 801a and 802a doors alternates.

7810-1 (Inv) Push-Along Steam Engine (Locomotive without motor)
91 Parts, 1 Minifigure, 1980

* Add 2 Part 3002old Red Brick 2 x 3 without Cross Supports

Comments from Submitter:
The brick with cross supports was released first sometime near 1987-8 but this set was released between 1980-2. So I think it should be removed.

Concerning functionality of Change request: get this error in order to change 3002old:
Oops! There was a problem processing your request:
Entry #2: Item No Required if Item Type is Entered.

If I enter 3002old for Item No, I get

"Oops! There was a problem processing your request:
Entry #2: New Item Type & Item No is same as Existing Item Type & Item No."


I think it is likely that the 3002 with cross supports was never in this set.
But I'll give it a few days to see if anyone has a convincing argument to
keep it in this inventory.

Set No: 8851  Name: Excavator

8851-1 (Inv) Excavator
350 Parts, 1984
Sets: Technic: Model: Construction

* Change 1 Part Black {3705b Technic, Axle 4 Threaded to 3705 Technic, Axle 4} (Extra)

Comments from Submitter:
Are you suore that extra item is 3705b (threaded) and not a 3705 (normal)? In the instruction of the kit neve use the 3705b item

Nope, not sure at all!

This part was added as an extra in 2010. Unfortunately, the Inventory Change
Requests from back then were not saved indefinitely in the forums like they are
today, so we have no information as to why this change was asked for or approved.

I honestly can't see a reason for it being in there.

Our guidelines for Extras in an inventory state:

Removing or Changing Extra Items - Extra parts can vary depending on when
and where a set was manufactured, meaning that some new sets may include them
and others may not. The quantity of these extra parts can also vary. Extra parts
are typically not removed or reduced in quantity unless it can be determined
that they were originally added or increased in error.

So, to make a decision concerning whether to remove this as an extra part, I
have to somehow determine if it was originally added in error. That is going
to be tough to do after nine years removed from the actual change being made.

Any ideas on how you would proceed with this, Paul?

Cheers,
Randy

Part 3705b first appeared as a regular part in sets in 1986 according to our
catalog. So it seems strange that it appeared as an extra part in another set
two years before that. Based on that it seems that a mistake was probably made
when adding this extra.

The only way to be sure would be to ask the person who added it in the first
place. But even they might not remember it after so many years.

  Maybe [p=bb299] should also be moved from extra to regular.
This screwdriver is used to build the motor.

I guess it should be regular if it is needed to build the set. Randy, what do
you think?

  The production date of motor in one of the photos attached is 15 7 69 (Mid July
1969) coming with black train rims. This set was released in 1969. All the other
photos of sealed copies come also with black rims. Maybe we can remove the light
gray one?

As with your other request I don't feel comfortable removing these parts
just yet. I'd like some more input on that from people who own the set and/or
are knowledgeable about these old trains.

Hi

it looks like the 'A' and 'B' sticker (both only once on the

A with towel: http://peeron.com/scans/231-1/20/
B with towel: http://peeron.com/scans/231-1/12/

also https://brickset.com/sets/231-1

What's the right part to stick the A and B sticker and both towels.

I can't check, sold this set about 10y ago


Stefaan

Also 'A' sticker on a 1x6x5 brick http://peeron.com/scans/231-1/13/

Very confusing instructions when it comes to placing the stickers. But the 1x3x5
brick with 'A' sticker is the first appearance of this sticker in the
instructions so I'll go with that as the correct placement.
