  Can we please have an option to search our inventory for items without dimensions
in the catalogue? There is already an option to search for items without a catalogue
weight or items that won't work with instant checkout, but it won't help
with finding items that are set as weight bound by default with no dimensions
(Curved train track, some rollercoaster track) which are potentially too big
to send in a letter.

Prohibiting new sets from being inventoried without all the parts having weights
and dimensions would be a big help too, providing users don't add arbitrary
values which seems to be the case for 99% of instruction books at the moment.

There are more than 20,000 items in the catalog without dimensions. Catalog dimensions
are only added when the item fits within the normal stud/brick height system.

1x1 brick: dimensions are 1x1x1 in studs
minifig torso: ?

If it can't be reasonably measured in studs vs brick height, a part will
have no data at all.

Hope that helps,
Jen
