Part No: 973pb0385 Name: Torso Idea Book 6000 Mary with 7 Red Dots Pattern (Sticker)
* 		973pb0385 Torso Idea Book 6000 Mary with 7 Red Dots Pattern (Sticker)
Parts: Minifigure, Torso


This part has 1 known colour listed: white. But the only picture is of this part
in red. This torso is found in one part, that part is also listed as white.

Could an additional known colour of red be added? The Torso assembly would be
red torso, red arms, red hands.

Imo we shouldnt, because this is actually a misplaced sticker so its more or
less a custom item. If you gonna add that to the catalog, you would have to
add every misplaced sticker, and since you can place stickers everywhere there
will be no end...


The part you mention is sold by one store, and thats his picture too I believe.

btw There is a picture of the white version, but its the torso assembly

Come to think of it...it's even remarkable that stickered parts from idea
books are in the catalog. Maybe because these particular ones (bill and mary)
are so iconic that they deserve a spot in the catalog?
I wonder if there are more in the catalog...

They should not be in the catalog. I faced some pushback when suggesting they
be removed, though. The only reason given was "historical reasons."

What pushback? These should obviously not be in the catalog.
