|
| Checking the various combinations of 30179, I’m not seeing the combo entry for
yellow door frame and trans-lt-blue glass. Does this exist and it is not connected
to 30179 in black ?
For reference, I’m parting out several copies of 6434-1 and all of them had the
same frame/door combo. The yellow door appears to be x39c01.
TIA

You could add it to the catalog.

It's in the set's inventory:
Already exists:
* | | x39c01 Door 1 x 4 x 6 with 3 Panes and Square Handle with Fixed Trans-Light Blue Glass
Parts: Door {Yellow} |
It's in the inventory for this set.
Hope that explains things.
Cheers ...

The subject is the counterpart / combo for {30179 + x39c01}. There’s several
30179cxx, but not with x39c01 in Yellow.

There likely never will be, either, unless TLG decide to do a rerelease of 6434-1
which I highly doubt would ever happen as it's from a bygone era.
The yellow door at the time of it's original release happened to fit the
color scheme of the era the sets were going through, nowadays, it's all color
coordinated and we know a lot more about the parts numbering scheme TLG uses
internally.
If there ever is a need for that particular yellow door in a set design, perhaps
they would reuse it, although given their color palette now, I'd expect it
would turn up in some shade of yellow.
Cheers ...

I guess this open up (again) the eternal question … Is it better (or more correct)
to list the two individually and linked together as a superlot, or to create
a unique catalog entry for the combo. It is existential in one sense. I’m curious
if there are ground floor reasons that suggest one over the other (and this same
subject somewhat also applies to wheels and tyres).
