| Hello,
I'm sure that most of you are familiar with the list of parts that are similar
in mold type when looking at certain parts in the catalog. For example, I noticed
that the 1X1 plate with vertical clip is now being made in dark orange,
so I went to view that part in the catalog.
LEGO has changed the way they make the clip a few times over the years, so there's
a list of the mold variants with links. But I noticed they were out of order.
The list appears:
4085 (undetermined)
4085a (from 1980)
4085c (from 1986)
4085b (from 1980)
They're neither in chronological order nor in part suffix order. Then I
noticed that they're in alphabetical order based on the part description.
That makes the 4085b and 4085c switch places.
I would like to propose that the list of variants be put in chronological order.
OR if there is a setting that lets each user set what order he wants
to see it in, someone please let me know so that I can adjust mine accordingly.
Thanks,
David

Keep in mind that some of these inventories are wrong. As soon as a new variant
is introduced another one is usually replaced/phased out. Many of those inventories
still need to be fixed.
