I have removed the section in Catalog Help that discouraged the submission of
SOA (sticker over assembly) parts. All legitimate stickered assemblies will now
be accepted, including those where the sticker is the only point of connection.

Hello,

Something is wrong with inventory of set

 
Set No: 6361  Name: Mobile Crane
* 
6361-1 (Inv) Mobile Crane
152 Parts, 1 Minifigure, 1986
Sets: Town: Classic Town: Construction

My stickers do not correspond to catalog sticker sheet
 
Part No: 6361stk01  Name: Sticker Sheet for Set 6361 - Double Arrow (190145)
* 
6361stk01 Sticker Sheet for Set 6361 - Double Arrow (190145)
Parts: Sticker Sheet
is it multiple version? I have the same number 190145 on my stickers

As you can see at the attached picture (this picture is not from my set) the
stickers is the same as this part.


 
Part No: 4215pb015  Name: Panel 1 x 4 x 3 with Box and Arrow Left Pattern (Sticker) - Set 6624
* 
4215pb015 Panel 1 x 4 x 3 with Box and Arrow Left Pattern (Sticker) - Set 6624
Parts: Panel, Decorated

The Arrow is "Left Pattern" on both parts.

If we say the stickers is only attached on "Panel 1 x 4 x 3"

Do need I add a new part:
"Panel 1 x 4 x 3 with Box and Arrow Left Pattern (Sticker) - Set 6361"

Or we modify
 
Part No: 4215pb015  Name: Panel 1 x 4 x 3 with Box and Arrow Left Pattern (Sticker) - Set 6624
* 
4215pb015 Panel 1 x 4 x 3 with Box and Arrow Left Pattern (Sticker) - Set 6624
Parts: Panel, Decorated
- To remove note (both parts are the same on set 6361-1)
- To change set on part name


PS: I hope you can understand what I have in my mind
-Fred

They are both in the catalog. If you are talking about providing inventories,
no one has them reserved or pending.

Thanks for the info; yes, I was referring to inventories. I've since discovered
how to figure this question out on my own. I'll look into providing them.

What is your source for this change request?

Thanks,
Randy

I found a sealed set unboxing and building at http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=109875

In one image, you can clearly see the tell-tale ridges around the ring on the
underside of this part that shows that the part has the locking fingers.

Request accepted.

Cheers,
Randy

Inventory list from the instructions. The set photography and artwork in the
instructions indeed shows the octagonal hilt, but the element ID doesn't
correspond. The spear appears to be dark brown, regardless.

Instructions and other set images clearly show that the sticker is applied partially on the 1x2x3 panel so that it is centered on the container.

But I'm afraid long time sellers here will not agree MOC gives them some
cash as Studio is not very welcome as far as I understand. Too bad. Gathering
parts for a nice sets available in the gallery could be exhausting and boring.
Having a bag pf ârts ready to buy will be nice. […]

I’d rather say that:
1. Sellers saw how the MOC Shop faired.
2. Sellers understand that MOCs are a niche market. Best-sellers are very rare.
Even MOCs-that-sell are rare.
3. Sellers understand that MOCs require much work (as you yourself noticed) and
they prefer buyers to do it themselves.


As for the prices, look at the constraints on parts for the “AFOL Design Contest.”
Even with a partnership with TLG, the sets will be around 10¢/part. More than
TLG’s sets when you consider there won’t be (new) prints nor recolouring nor
new parts nor expensive licences.

(Curious to see how many of the finalists will reach the crowd funding limit.)


And about Studio:
1. Most sellers don’t see what it could bring them as sellers (see MOC Shop,
see Mosaick).
2. Some (many?) think the efforts put to make Studio would have been better spent
of the main website.

(At least, Studio can compete (and win) with similar programs on many points.
That was not the case with Mosaick )
