| Please move the following images and their respective PCCs to Glow in Dark Trans:
The horn photo doesn't appear to be taken from LEGO.com, but there's
no evidence to suggest that this part ever came in the older color. This part
in Phosphorescent Green is known to be more opaque than other parts of the same
color.
The seaweed/vine photo was taken directly from LEGO.com and belongs to Phosphorescent
Green. This is also a more opaque part.
The other four are multicombination parts from 2007 and Glow in Dark Opaque was
not in use anymore.
All PCCs should also be moved to Glow in Dark Trans.

The last part to have been made in GitD Opaque was this
with ID 4252392.
The first part to have been made in GitD Trans was this
with ID 4260439.
All GitD parts after this and before the newest GitD color are 50 Phosphorescent
White.

They should also say 'Marbled Trans-Dark Blue' instead of Trans-Light
Blue. It looks Trans-Light Blue only as a result of the marbling. In thei nstructions
and LEGO's renders, the blue color matches the (era-appropiate) renders of
trans-dark blue, not trans-light blue.

The catalog admin team has come to a consensus after discussing this a few times
over the last few months.
Neither of the first two parts listed above look remotely transparent due to
the plastic used to make them, so we think that changing them to "Glow In Dark
Trans" would only cause confusion. In the case of the last four, trans-dark blue
is blended with the glow in the dark color so they do look somewhat transparent.
However, the glow in the dark portions look opaque, so we would not switch any
of these either.
In addition, not all PCCs on BrickLink match the corresponding color from LEGO
due to how we classify multicolored parts or part assemblies, so changing these
just for the sake of changing them to line up exactly with LEGO color data does
not make much sense to us. We still think that the way they look in reality should
be the driving force for how these parts are classified.
All of the inventory change requests that went along with this will also be discarded.
Cheers,
Randy
