Based on this request:

https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1015490

I am moving 5 parts from the extra section to the regular. These parts are used
in alternate models as pictured on the box and they also round out the piece
count for the set, from 774 to 779 (official, as printed on boxes for the US
market).

The string and winch would have come assembled.

Interesting situation with the minifig heads. In sets with the early "stiff"
minifigs the head and torso were counted as separate pieces. This can be easily
seen from using the "Break Minifigs" feature in this inventory:
 
Set No: 770  Name: Rescue Set
* 
770-1 (Inv) Rescue Set
121 Parts, 3 Minifigures, 1976
Sets: LEGOLAND: Hospital
which will yield a total of 133, same as printed on the box.

And it is common knowledge that up until recent times, the head and torso were
counted as one piece and actually came assembled in new sets. I've always
assumed Lego made the switch in piece counting policy when the movable minifig
was introduced in 1978, but the castle set is evidence that perhaps the counting
policy (and maybe even the assembly policy) took a year or so to fall in place.
It would be interesting to hear from some folks who remember opening a set with
a minifig in 1978, if they could remember how it came assembled.

My first (and favorite) minifig was this guy:
 
Minifig No: shell001a  Name: Shell - Classic - Blue Legs, Red Hat (Torso with Trapezoid Sticker)
* 
shell001a (Inv) Shell - Classic - Blue Legs, Red Hat (Torso with Trapezoid Sticker)
Minifigures: Town: Classic Town: Gas Station
from the tanker set, but I'm pretty sure I didn't get him in 1978. I
don't remember any fig growing up that came with the head separated from
the torso. It always seemed a little odd to take off the head to put air tanks
on the space figures.

Anyhow, even if the heads are counted with the torso, if the 2 blue slopes were
added we would still need 12 more pieces - sort of a stretch, but who knows.
Either way, the 5 pieces I'm adding now would be needed to meet the total.

  All of the other requests were approved. For this part, I'm confused on
the role the rail with connector wire played and why it was later included as
an alternate.

Can you explain that in more detail, please? Does it have to do with the alternate
motor? Would the inclusion of a rail with a connection wire have changed the
type or quantity of connection wires which already exist in the inventory?

It does not have anything to do with the motors (alternate, regular, substitute,
extra or any type of motor).

I use a message that Morris wrote me (since his return in January, we put our
knowledge together and therefore, you are seeing many inventory change requests).
This is something important, and there will be many inventory change request
relating to this. So please do your best
I should say that the whole story is not very easy. It took me many months to
understand the whole evolution.

In 1980 the sets 7730 and 7740 were released coming with both curved and straight
conducting curved. In 1981 the set 7725 was released coming with ONLY curved
conducting rail. (TLG tried to release a nice train with three cars but using
less parts than 7730 or 7740. The result was 7725)
However there were interference problems, caused by the track, to radio or TV
reception, so the Lego Group introduced the special suppressor rail 3241c, which
was necessarily curved because it had to be included in 7725 (no straight rail
included in it). We believe that this happened in 1982. This part was also included
in 7730 and 7740 since 1982.
Please note that 3241c was always accompanied by the leaflet 117983, but unfortunately
this paper is not dated.
And also in the MIB 7740 provided by Bluxe (motor date 22 81) apparently there
is no 3241c. In my perfect boxed 7725 (in the same lot as those space sets) whose
motor is dated 29 81 there is no 3241c. So this is why we think it was released
in 1982.
This part was also included in 7735 and 7745 in 1985 as you see in the photos
of this sealed 7745. But in 1986, TLG decided to integrate 3241c and a wire that
had to be used to connect the conducting rails to the transformer (without wire,
the trains won't move )
The result, I believe, was
 
Part No: 2731b  Name: Train, Track 12V Conducting Rail Curved with Connection Wire and Long Connector
* 
2731b Train, Track 12V Conducting Rail Curved with Connection Wire and Long Connector
Parts: Train, Track
I have good evidence for this, otherwise, this part is not included in any set
on bricklink. In 1988, this part was replaced by
 
Part No: 2731a  Name: Train, Track 12V Conducting Rail Curved with Connection Wire and Short Connector
* 
2731a Train, Track 12V Conducting Rail Curved with Connection Wire and Short Connector
Parts: Train, Track
And this is another case for which the inventory does not have enough features.
I don't know what we can do with this. This is the summary of what I would
like to see one day for the inventory of 7745 and 7735:
1985:
 
Part No: 117983a  Name: Paper Information Note, Special Suppressor Rail - 117983
* 
117983a Paper Information Note, Special Suppressor Rail - 117983
Parts: Paper
 
Part No: 3241c  Name: Train, Track 12V Conducting Rail Curved, interference-free
* 
3241c Train, Track 12V Conducting Rail Curved, interference-free
Parts: Train, Track

1986-7:
 
Part No: 117983b  Name: Paper Information Note, Special Suppressor Rail with Wire and Connector - 117983
* 
117983b Paper Information Note, Special Suppressor Rail with Wire and Connector - 117983
Parts: Paper
 
Part No: 2731b  Name: Train, Track 12V Conducting Rail Curved with Connection Wire and Long Connector
* 
2731b Train, Track 12V Conducting Rail Curved with Connection Wire and Long Connector
Parts: Train, Track

1988-90:
 
Part No: 117983b  Name: Paper Information Note, Special Suppressor Rail with Wire and Connector - 117983
* 
117983b Paper Information Note, Special Suppressor Rail with Wire and Connector - 117983
Parts: Paper
 
Part No: 2731a  Name: Train, Track 12V Conducting Rail Curved with Connection Wire and Short Connector
* 
2731a Train, Track 12V Conducting Rail Curved with Connection Wire and Short Connector
Parts: Train, Track

How can we show this on inventory?

There could well have been some extra parts included for added play value, but
I'm inclined to say (and I suspect you'd agree with me) that it would
be best to see some evidence of this in a new set before adding the parts back

I would think the parts would've been retained as extras instead of being
deleted altogether in 2011 if they had been proven to appear in the set.

You've been making inventory change requests for long enough now (around
140 or so approved changes . . . thank you and congratulations!) that I feel
comfortable asking you to please be more careful with the change request form.

For this batch of changes I had to make several modifications after approving
the requests, like changing colors of parts, adding Match IDs, and deleting other
parts.

On a positive note, though, all these changes were approved.

Of course. However, for this set the source of the inventory was Set Box/Picture
and the inventory was completed in the spring of 2007 by Admin. Many of the
inventories from around this time by this submitter have been shown to be incorrect
in various ways.

Yes, my changes are based on guesswork, too. However, my guesswork has a bit
more evidence and I'll wager that this set inventory is now more accurate
than it was yesterday.

Sounds like a good explanation to me.

My next question is going to be, if a stickered part that is part of a minifig
inventory, and that minifig is added as a counterpart, should the stickered part
also be added to the inventory of the set, separately? If so, there are a lot
of stickered minifigs with stickered parts yet to be added?

I think those number are probably from here

but there is instruction and there are 8x 3010 and 12x 3009 used I checked it.

Please make changes to the following inventory:
 
Set No: 375  Name: Castle
* 
375-2 (Inv) Castle
706 Parts, 14 Minifigures, 1978
Sets: Castle: Classic Castle

* Change {7 to 8} Part Light Gray 3840pb03 Minifig, Vest with Crown on Dark Purple Background Pattern (Stickers) - Sets 375 / 6075 (Counterpart)

Comments from Submitter:
The decision to add 7 of these instead of 8 likely had something to do with the instructions not explicitly showing the sticker on the mounted knight. We've since expanded the sticker rules to include official Lego images as a source for stickered counterparts, and it's plain to see there are 8 of these in the set.

Found it. There was a red 2 x 6 brick shown on the parts list which did not
appear in the inventory. I added it directly and now the part count matches
the part count printed on the label.

If 1980s train sets came with these handy guides, then you'd be doing it,
too.

I'm merely going after the low hanging fruit while you seem to have a fondness
for Sisyphean tasks.

Checking the photo of the back of the box for an inventory change is kind of
cheating! You may try to find photos of a sealed copy
or travel to the past and speak with a manager of TLG!

The first photo is the parts list. The second is a close-up of the original
1991 set bucket label showing the animals included in the set. They were all
the newer style with black/white eyes. As with other changes for this set, this
has also been seen in used copies of the set.

Comments from Submitter:
People sometimes ask me how I have time to mess around with old Duplo inventories. The truth is that Hygrotus does pretty much all of the work of verifying inventories and approving change requests. I simply rest on my laurels and occasionally glance at the odd inventory (like this one) to make it look like I'm working.

For this set, the only change I'm not reasonably confident in is the open/closed hitch change. However, this set was more likely to include the open hitch end and the original inventory source regarding this part was quite likely only a guess anyway because none of the pictures on any side of the set box make it clear. All the used sets I've seen for sale included the open hitch.

I'm not sure where these changes will leave the part count, but I'll add a second post with that information and also some photos.

Please, Bricklink give us back the Paypal notifications.
Or please notify us in any way that the payment is done.

Those who have switched to Paypal Marketplace are not receiving the notifications.
Many users are complaining about that in other posts.

In general, the first variation should be regular as we don't know which
variation was used more. In this case, we know the answer. I think when one variation
is used less than 5% of all releases,, it should not be listed as regular. However,
one can add a note and explain this.
In general, we should add more notes and explain the difference between variations
and like, "the part XXXa appeared in all releases in 1979 but then it was replaced
by XXXb since early 1980".

  The older version, even if rare compared to the later one, should definitely
be the regular item (minifig in this case) just as you've made it.

I've just updated the relevant Help page to address this issue:

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

  to the site admins: Any note at the bottom of an inventory should be much more
prominent - these notes are being overlookedway too often (many cases in Forum
threads in the past).
I would like a red banner at the top of an inventory:
"IMPORTANT: Please see the inventory note at the bottom of this page"

I agree that they're being overlooked far too frequently. I would like to
see them moved to the top of the page. I asked and was told this would be considered
after some other improvements had been made.

Very well done, I like it this way!

The older version, even if rare compared to the later one, should definitely
be the regular item (minifig in this case) just as you've made it.

to the site admins: Any note at the bottom of an inventory should be much more
prominent - these notes are being overlookedway too often (many cases in Forum
threads in the past).
I would like a red banner at the top of an inventory:
"IMPORTANT: Please see the inventory note at the bottom of this page"

Jan

P.S.: the image of the trans-red (and trans-yellow, trans-dark blue, trans-black)
1x1 plates 3024 should definitely be replaced by a photo (or a different drawing
like most of the other trans-colours), IMHO:

Bonjour,

6 on left
39 in the middle. But 3 is on left side and 9 on right side. What does this give?

I checked my set from 1986-7. It does only have 3001 on left top side.

Hi

if possible you can check the mould number in that brick (if there is one)

The other way we could go is to include the printed figure as regular since it
was unquestionably much more common and the sticker sheet/plain torso figure
as alternate.

I can configure the inventory however members would prefer it.

Fantastic job on collecting your pictures! The pictures for these requests are
large, clear, and incontrovertible. I've approved these requests and am
still looking over the others.

Just a word of caution, though: I have personally seen variations of these bricks
(old and new) mixed in the same set. It's something to look out for as you
continue your efforts. When I saw it in a sealed set it was based on color -
so the blue 2 x 3 bricks, for example, were new and the red 2 x 3 bricks were
old.

After some additional effort, I found a poor-quality image of the parts list.
It confirms that the number should be 10.

Comments from Submitter:
The official part count for set is 190 parts and set currently includes 191 parts.

Only 10 blank tiles are visible in current set photo. I've also looked at several used sets and it seems fairly evident that the set only included 10 blank tiles.

Comments from Submitter:
Official part count for set is 64. Am making changes to align BL inventory with official part count (or at least get it closer). The windshields are wrong (original box image pending approval shows it).

The fences are clearly visible in the 1986 catalog and there are 6. I'll submit a scan of the photo in the catalog to the set entry.

On the wheels, the original box shows the pin in the wheels so I'm requesting a change. Truthfully, though, I don't know much about these old wheels, so would appreciate any input on the wheels change for this set.

Difficult to see in 1986 catalog, but the 2 x 8 brick is actually two 2 x 4 bricks. BrickLink original box photo shows one of the 2 x 4 bricks in red. Current title and 1986 catalog both say set has 29 parts - the 29th part is unknown.

Paul said he had some of the stickered torso figures as a child and as far as
he remembers the sets came with plain torsos and sticker sheets. He also said,
"Of course these sets are around 40 years old so I don't remember the exact
details" and I believe him.

You did not address the issue of whether your set came with plain torsos and
sticker sheets. You said, "Set 889 came with the stickered torso/minifig. Got
this as my 2nd set when I was 5-6y old." and I believe you.

I'm sorry.

That is right, I didn't addressed this but I assumed that everyone would
know this (about the plain torso and stickersheet)

Don't know were the info came from about the 'already in box stickered
minifig'.


Stefaan
PS: yes I still remember (like a lot other do) what my first Lego set was, my
2nd, 3th etc...

  
Consider, however, the sources: one used lot and two people who are remembering
details from childhood. I don't remember much from when I was 5 years old.
As SylvainLS said, it's not that I don't believe anyone - it would just
be nice to have more substantial sources.

I do think that all of you are very likely correct and what is probably going
to happen is that I'm going to find a way to reflect the 1979 stickered/un-stickered
figures in the inventories along with the sticker sheets (and inventory notes).

I think we could probably move forward with doing this thing even now, but the
first step is for someone to add the figures with plain torsos to the catalog.
I don't have the parts or figures necessary to do this, so I'm waiting
on someone to submit these figures with photos.

  Hi Bricklink,

After switching to PayPal marketplace for onsite PayPal, I no longer receive
email alerts from PayPal that I have been paid. PayPal tells me that all those
notifications now go to Bricklink. I think it Bricklink's responsibility
to pass on those notifications to your sellers. Can you please create an option
to receive payment notifications by email when a buyer has paid for their order?
This could be an option in my account settings that I either turn on or off.
I would think this would not be a huge undertaking and would make the transition
a lot smoother. Especially considering the fact that I did not read anything
about email notifications no longer working in Bricklink's communication
about enabling PayPal marketplace.

Thank you!

Yes this needs to be done.

I contacted Paypal to confirm that the emails are being sent and that Bricklink
is receiving them. I then contacted Admin about 5 days ago but of course that
contact has not been answered.

  Second this idea. I used to get notifications on my phone where ever i was, now
i have to log into Paypal or bricklink which means possible delays in shipping
if i don't pick the payments up straight away. Bricklink have forced this
on us, so at least have the decency to set up a bricklink notification of payment
received.

I changed the message template for "purchase confirmation" to include "paid with
instant checkout" so I know from the email that payment was made and I should
not expect a second paypal payment confirmation email.

Message Templates can be found under store settings.

Good Idea!

I added the minifigs.

Some comments from few experts:
- hollow torsos
- the airtanks are a more translucent plastic than the later ones
- The stickers came on a sheet inside the box.
- some classic space sets were released in late 1978 rather than 1979 and they
cme with sticker sheets for the minifigs.

See attached some photo I took.

I can do this.
However there was no trace of any sticker sheets in these sets. Recall that the
sticker sheets in the data base have each two stickers so for two torsos. But
three sets out of four in my lot have each one minifigs. So either
- there should have been one sticker left for each of these three sets (889,
891, 6841) Since the previous owner was very organized but no sticker sheet was
found in the box, this is not likely.
- a different sticker sheet were included in these sets. (is this likely? so
many years and nobody added these stickers?)
- the minifigures were first stickerred by TLG and included in these sets.

By the way, I have asked this question in a facebook group for classic space
sets.

Looks like the torsos themselves already exist (see the additional note for the
red one):

[P=973c44]
[P=973c09]

Still need the figures added, though.

Don't think any Lego part comes/came stickered (maybe an exception?), there
is always a stickersheet for that part or parts (a large stickersheet or a small
one, or more then one in a set)

Store: Sezar's trains
Concerning the hinges, I believe:
1) the inventory of the vintage trains were never made by checking a sealed set
as all the mistakes or incompleteness are those not found on instructions or
box. So I believe the hinges with solid stud was not verified to be included
in a copy of this set.
2) The motor is of type 3 dated 45 4 (45th week in 1984). This set is from 1985-90
so this copy should be from the first production run of this set.
Other parts included in this MISB set confirm this, for example the part
 
Part No: 3241c  Name: Train, Track 12V Conducting Rail Curved, interference-free
* 
3241c Train, Track 12V Conducting Rail Curved, interference-free
Parts: Train, Track
does not have reinforcements. In 1985 this part was improved and reinforcements
were added under the notches. Also
 
Part No: 4081a  Name: Plate, Modified 1 x 1 with Light Attachment - Thin Ring
* 
4081a Plate, Modified 1 x 1 with Light Attachment - Thin Ring
Parts: Plate, Modified
So in this first production run, the hinges are already of hollow studs.
3) As we don't have any proof that the old variants of hinges came in any
release, I requested to delete them.
More conservative option is to change them to alternate parts. Even if the old
variants of hinges were included, that would be in less than 1% copies of this
set so it makes sense to change them to alternate.

In the photos we can see most hinges. The owner of this set checked and confirmed
that all hinges were of hollow studs.

The photos are from an MISB set belonging to the owner of the store Basteq.

This set is most likely from the first production run as the date of motor is
45 4 (45th week in 1984). The light gray brick

Much the same way as Ebay. I'm not sure why they call it "feedback". I strive

My favoured solution would be feedback rating only calculated on the last 12months
transactions, with the exception of NPB/NSS which I feel should be on permanent
record.

Apparently some extra parts in all the trains of that era were included. These
parts were exactly the parts of the motor set
[p=103-1]
so that buyers can build other MOCs such as cars with the train set. (and won't
need to buy 103-1)

One expert/collector confirmed the number of blue rails included as the photo
is not clear.
The rims come assembled in the original box.
The photo one belongs to one copy. The photos 2-6 belong to another one.

I was able to respond to the feedback but it didn't occur to me in time

any way for me to request removal of this feedback seeing as how the system apparently

They do expire in the sense that they are no longer shown in the 1 month, 6 month
and 1 year history, but are always kept as a permanent historical record.

Plus they get lost in recent positive feedback. So if you are a decent seller
generating positive feedback, they soon become less important.

I feel that Negative feedbacks should be purged in the same way as orders are.

If they get rid of bad, then surely they should get rid of good too? If they
didn't, then lots of recent bad history could be hidden by a high overall
number from past very good feedback.

When I check feedback, I normally look at the time breakdown. If no bad feedback
in a year (with lots of good), then I ignore any historical bad feedback. Whereas
if there is no recent feedback but a lot of past negatives, then they are important
as the store may not have changed.

the system won't let me because the order was supposedly purged but yet the
feedback is still there. Do negative or neutral feedback ever expire? Is there
any way for me to request removal of this feedback seeing as how the system apparently
can't access the order?

I get your point about negative feedback perhaps having an influence for too
long, but I am surprised you expected negative to disappear and positive to stay.
That's distorting the past. As crazylegoman pointed out, your negative feedback
will probably exist longer than you A suggestion to make very old feedback
less prominent or influential could be good, but not this way.

No feedback, whether positive, neutral or negative, ever expires. It
lasts as long as your account exists.

Why do negative and neutral feedback still show for orders that were supposedly
purged from the system? I have one case where the order was shipped, actually
lost in the mail, neutral feedback received, then received a few days later.

I then really need to travel to the past and speak to one of manager of TLG in
late 70s.
Once I do this, many issues on inventories would be resolved.

I'm sorry, I should have been more specific. I'm interested in videos
or photos of a new space set which included the space figures and sticker sheets
we're discussing.

Based on Bricklink inventory guidelines I guess this means that stickered minifigs
should be added as counterparts and minifigs with plain red and white torsos
should be added as alternates for the minifigs with printed torsos.

That is what I was suspecting should happen for classic space sets with stickered
minifigures and I believe Stefaan agrees with you. In other words, I rather
doubted that the stickered figures came in sealed sets from the LEGO factory
with the stickers pre-applied. It could happen, but I don't know of many
other times that has happened.

147 Parts, 4 Minifigures, 1979
Sets: Space: Classic Space

I'm not overly familiar with these stickered torso figures. I'm not
sure if they come from the existence of these sheets:

[P=SPACEstk01]
[P=SPACEstk02]

which came, I'm told, from TLG customer service only (read the additional
catalog notes for the sticker sheets), or if the torso stickered figures were
included in new sets.

The question which should be answered before we proceed here is whether the torsos
with stickers already applied were included in sealed sets or not. I'm sure
someone here knows the answer to that . . . ?

Maybe it's time to change that note (delete) and add the stickersheet to
the sets we know (like set 889 for ex.)
When in a later run the minfig in this set was the printed torso then this minfig
need to changes as alternate as 'MID 1' and the stickersheet and minfig
as regular with the 'MID 1' like we have done in other sets.

  I don't call it a big lot of used sets. It is the following item
173205892929
I am amazed how all sets were neat and complete in their boxes. Only the small
space sets missed their boxes.
More interesting is that there was a letter inside the set 7725 which was the
answer of a Lego sale manager concerning the set 7725 and how to use transformer.
The owner was overly organized.
The older train 171 may not have come from the same buyer. The seller of this
item received donation to sell and spend for the charity.

On the other hand, I had seen this stickerred torso in various websites. One
of them is even in the inventory of
https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?M=sp064#T=P

Unfortunately, most AFOL consider bricklink as the ultimate source and all that
is true about inventories. IT is really not. One commnet:
"Looking at bricklink it seems they were only used in 1978. They don't seem
too uncommon though, there are a few for sale on bricklink."

https://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?/forums/topic/25056-classic-space-minifig-with-sticker/

Having worked with inventory of vintage trains from 70-80, I am 100% sure non
of them were inventories based on a sealed set rather they were inventoried by
checking the instructions. All mistakes I see come from instructions. Whenever
something is missing is because it is not present in its instructions or on the
box
I don't know about stickerred minifigs and I don't know if the space
sets were inventoried the same way as train sets.
Hopefully some collector see this post and write an anwser.
Some people discussed it here
https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1054822

I had forgotten to attach my photos.

SNIP

Is it not a bit 'dangerous' to change set inventories based on a big
lot of used lego. Even if the sets seem to be complete and in good condition.

Such a change should only be made if the source of the existing inventory is
not a sealed set.

Hi

Set 889 came with the stickered torso/minifig. Got this as my 2nd set when I
was 5-6y old.

Later they changed the Space minfigs and all came with printed torso.
