| | I'm working on the inventory for set and the body for Din Grogu
has a new PCC. comparing the 2 images I can't tell if its a new pattern or
just printing variation. should I add a new entry or just add the new PCC? In
image 2 I drew arrows pointing to some different areas along with some lines
to show the height difference of the one line
|
These images, which were taken from BrickSet set reviews, show the eight Grogu
figures from the past sets on the left and the "new" Grogu on the right.
Apart from normal small print differences like thickness or position I cannot
see any relevant difference between the old figures and the new one.

So it might be that...
- The new PCC is for a new mold number (what number is molded into your part?).
- The new PCC is for a material change or any other change that we cannot know
or that is too subtle to notice.
- The new PCC is for a part with a visible difference or new mold but your set
still came with the old part.
If your part is numbered 25128 then I would say you can use the existing entry
sw1113 to finish the set inventory. However, to be on the safe side, let's
wait some time until we add the new PCC just in case it stands for a new part
that was not yet included in the early production runs of the set.
Btw. according to the official render images, the new part doesn't have the
LEGO logo anymore.

This set came out right during the time of the transition from blocked open stud
to hollow stud, so it is very likely that the set came with both at one point.
However, this information will all be moot when the catalog entries for the heads
get merged soon.

It would be for the heaviest version found.

What about the lighter ones? Then the weight would be incorrect.

You could then use that logic for pretty much everything in the catalogue… it’s
best to over estimate the weight for shipping rather then underestimate. But
even so it isn’t going to be anything crazy
|
Ok, just found it strange that a item with weight varying from box to box could
have a weight attached to it.
|
It's not strange at all. It's very, very normal.
For example, most every set for North America is heavier than the sets distributed
elsewhere. The boxes and instructions use different paper. Depending on the size
of the set, it can easily be a difference of 10-20%.

Hmm, I did not know that.

It has to be somewhere in between the weight of the box plus the six times the
weight of the lightest minifigure polybag and the weight of the box plus six
times the weight of the heaviest minifigure polybag ... in no case would it be
zero.

Only ever seen examples of hollow-stud head with these polybag sets, had quite
a few too. But it's production year/s did fall firmly within the transition
period between mold types, and depending upon the number of global locations
and length of the overall production period, the global supply could credibly
contain both.
Having said that, and as to the listing being wrong: with the site's recent
'shift in listing' minifig head mold-types, it has become more of a moot
point today, at least in part.

When I next have to do a batch of minifig photos for my ebay listings I may have

How is it likely to be tackled. Will it just go in the catalog as soc155b and

for deletion at some point once the new one is in place?

The new entry will replace the existing one, i.e. once the minifigure with correct
hair piece has been added, soc155 will be marked for deletion and removed from
the set inventory.

I didn't choose the correct colour for the macro so hair should be the Dark

|
Just to be clear, which hair piece did you include with the figure you sent to
your customer?
Jim.
|
The one as per Bricklinks catalog however my customer was an ebay customer
|
That could make it a tuff one to resolve. You could send him a link to the minifigure
here on BrickLink and inform him that it is correct as BrickLink is owned by
The Lego Group and if that dose not work you could offer to send him the other
hair piece and file it under a learning curve - that is probably what I would
do if the BrickLink did not satisfy your customer.
Jim
|
Well yes though its not so much that I have an issue with the resolution side
should my buyer be unwilling to accept the reference links I've used but
rather wanting to advise BL that on this very rare occasion its not cataloged
correctly in line with their minifig policy also I have a feeling even someone
buying here may question why it doesn't match with the promotional images/instructions
etc...
Personally I think the one used in the catalog is an overall better match for
the real person which is probably why the catalog contributor assumed it was
the correct one to use

Are you making a comparison where the one on the right is what she might look

| | I have been working on the Catalog Backlog for about a year now and I did my
very best to keep up with all submissions, just like the other admins. Starting
today I will be working on Inventory submissions also. Although I can see pending
submissions on the Catalog side as well as the Inventory side now, I don't
think it will drive me more crazy than it did before
We will all just continue doing the best we can.
