Newer Dinosaur figures have detailed part descriptions that include 'Leg'
in the description. The older figures use 'Limb'. Can they be made the
same?

Example of new parts:

and old:

The new parts are definitely either "arms" or "legs"

The old parts, particularly, this one
 
Part No: 54128 Name: Dinosaur Leg Small (Front) with Pin and Claws - Left
* 		54128 Dinosaur Leg Small (Front) with Pin and Claws - Left
Parts: Animal, Body Part

was either a leg or an arm depending on what dino it was in.
LEG
 
Part No: Ptera01 Name: Dinosaur Mutant Pteranodon
* 		Ptera01 (Inv) Dinosaur Mutant Pteranodon
Parts: Animal, Dinosaur

ARM
 
Part No: Raptor01 Name: Dinosaur Mutant Raptor / Velociraptor
* 		Raptor01 (Inv) Dinosaur Mutant Raptor / Velociraptor
Parts: Animal, Dinosaur

so they used "limb"

so they used "limb"

So maybe they should have “arm / leg” as search terms?

All dinosaur "limbs" are now gone. They are all "legs".
