Hi Jan,
Wow, that was really helpful! Thanks for sharing your knowledge with me  If
only there was a way to guarantee the actual colour of the brick you're selling!

See
with the note "In some markets these instructions may be comprised of three booklets."

two different ones, named "8270-2".
Additionally, the set entry:
states "Instructions: 2 Booklets".
We're at 4 pcs in total now, so at least some correction (and an additional
image) would be required for the catalog.

Add an original photo of both leaflets (sell them in one lot, since it doesn't
make sense to sell them separately) and note that they are different than the
version in the current database. Plus, that you sell the leaflets for second
model only, of course.
Plus, add a fourth image to this entry:
here: https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogImageAdd.page?itemType=I
(note: you need to chose set 8270-1 despite the printed set number being 8270-2)

| Probably needs straightening out. For the ones that I submitted to the catalog,
I provided the height of the piece, which would always be 1/3 higher than the
distance that the roller coaster would fall.

"Elevation" is the increase or decrease of height a roller coaster car gains
by rolling up or down a ramp, right?
Then the elevation of these parts is 3 respectively 6 bricks. Not 3 1/3 respectively
6 1/3 bricks.
The higher ramps are exactly many times higher than the small ramp. One big ramp
consisting of parts 26560 and 26559 has the same elevation than four 34738 ramps.
With the elevation specified in the name of the parts, this would not fit:
2 x 6 1/3 = 12 2/3
4 x 3 1/3 = 13 1/3
The correct elevation is:
2 x 6 = 12
4 x 3 = 12

| Howdy.
I'm looking for light bright orange 1x1 round bricks with open stud (3062b).
I've bought several over the last few months, but there's now only one
left on the market place.
I was hoping that I could perhaps get more from sets (here or eBay etc.),
however looking for this part "In Sets" doesn't appear to net any results
- https://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemIn.asp?P=3062b&in=S
Am I reading that right?
If it didn't appear in sets (and was released in an apparent limited number)
where did it come from?
I presume that once that last brick is sold it will then be deleted from the
catalogue too, so no more will ever be made available 
Can anyone shed some light on this?
Cheers
Ian

I’m not sure when they were rounded but I find them difficult to differentiate.
I have a couple unmarked yellow heads from old figs (the ones that had their
hands in their pockets and their feet like Charlie Chaplin) that look more square.

There’s at least two versions / two plastics from that time:
https://www.leggodt.nl/items/lego/themes-minifigs.php?language=en
But:
— no logo / number under the “collar”
— no ridge inside the bottles / same diameter all the way up.
I only checked on a dozen or so old airtanks but the pip seems to always be
on the right of the bar on top of the bottles (right = the right of the MF, so
near its right shoulder).
On the 5 new ones I have, it’s on the left.
Could be chance though.

Bricks with the split tubes like this are older, usually from the 60's/70's.
I'm not sure if this part number has an "old" variant, but for the 3001's
and 3002's, these split tubes are classified along with the other 3001old
and 3002old parts. You have a very vintage piece there!

|
|
Probably something fromn the mid 1970s. The 3001old with these tubes were introduced
in 1973. Sellers usually list them separately with "with split tubes" in the
comments.

Nice list.
You might want to add those 2 to the list.
At least 424 come up now and then.

| I think i remember a forum post from way back about the position of the mold
pip on the original air tanks.
Someone with greater insight than me should chime in

| I am wondering if there is a way to identify period specific legs for the original
classic space minifigures.
Also wondering if the solid stud head should be the squared off version as opposed
to the rounded version?
Anything to look for with the tanks?
I am comfortable identifying the original helmets and torsos.
Trying to re-assemble original versions and want to make sure I am doing it right.
Thanks for any help.

This part, the tipper bed wedge end thing, the train posts, the watch bezel,
and a half dozen others that show up weekly...
I'm of the opinion that many of these things can't be adequately described
with language and there's enough non-native-English speaking visitors that
would not necessarily be able to cross the language threshold even if these things
could be adequately described in language.
I'd propose there be a...well, I'd propose a lot of things...but for
this I'd propose there be a forum section entitled "WHAT IS THIS PART" and
that page would have these dozen always-asked-for items be permafixed there as
big, you-can't-miss-'em images. Those along with links to the goatleg
and whatnot. After that stuff, then a box to post the question if it hasn't
been resolved by the aforementioned.

Is it worth asking about getting such a variant added to the database?

I’ll have a look for a variant piece listing for it. I’ve actually got about
6 or 7 floating around in a box of my stuff from when I was a child!
Thanks again

This is a regular “slope 33 4 x 3” piece which appears to me to be very old,
as it is unlike a lot of other bricks of the same appearance in that the tubes
underneath are split and has “PEND” in place of it’s part number.
I can’t find any evidence of this brick in the catalog... does it just class
as a regular “33 4x3” brick or is it special/rare in any way?
Thanks for any help you can give

Bricks with the split tubes like this are older, usually from the 60's/70's.
I'm not sure if this part number has an "old" variant, but for the 3001's
and 3002's, these split tubes are classified along with the other 3001old
and 3002old parts. You have a very vintage piece there!
