| | Hello everybody,
We've temporarily changed the date for the Spring category move from May
1 to July 1. If you recall, last year it was set at April 1, but going forward
we plan to stick with May 1.
Please refer to this page for a list of all items changing in this cycle:
https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=2520
We had previously announced this in a newsletter, but we have since added a number
of other items to the list.
There is a relatively new category that we are beginning to populate:
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogListOld.asp?catType=P&catString=1215
It is called Human Jewelry, and we will be moving several bracelets and rings
there - all Parts that were previously considered to be Gear items.
The 2 changes with the most marketplace effect are these:
which will be moved out of the Friends category and into non-themed generic categories.
A large majority of the uses of these parts are outside the Friends theme, especially
in recent years.

Is there any reason why only that one flower is being moved and not the rest
of the similar ones? Going to make it very confusing.
|
Yes, there is a good reason. The two parts above have a "Friends ratio" of 32/124
(26%) and 64/162 (40%) respectively.
Other parts like these:
* | | 11618 Friends Accessories Hair Decoration, Bow with Heart, Long Ribbon, and Small Pin
Parts: Friends |
* | | 18853 Friends Accessories Hair Decoration, Flower with Pointed Petals and Small Pin
Parts: Friends |
are different in that they are "hair" accessories attached with a small pin and
don't enjoy the general cross-theme use of the two above. The Friends ratio
for these are 63/65 (97%) and 113/166 (68%) and 50/98 (51%) respectively.
We will consider moving these last three later.
