Edit Catalog


Brick Owl has a catalog of many of the different sets, parts and other items that LEGO has produced over the years. Most of the catalog can be edited by users like yourself in many different ways. If you want to help contribute to the catalog, this page will help you find items that are missing data or need data matched up. If you already know what items you want to edit, search for it in the catalog while you are logged in and then click on the 'edit' tab.

Edit a Catalog Item

Most catalog submissions can be made by finding the existing item in the Catalog, and clicking the 'Edit' tab that should appear when you are logged in. You can then fill in as much or as little of the data for that item as you want and then click the 'Submit for Approval' button. For each piece of data that is approved points will automatically be added to your account.  When editing Lego parts, you usually need to edit the part with no color like 'Plate 1 x 2' not 'Blue Plate 1 x 2'.  However if you want to upload a picture of a Lego part, you must select the color like 'Blue Plate 1 x 2'.

Items missing information

Show items missing information - This will run a special search that has a new set of filters down on the left. These filters can be used to filter the search results by items that are missing certain pieces of data. Several of the data types will only apply to certain items, for example lip color will only apply to items with lips.

Inventory

The inventory for recent sets is automatically imported from LEGO. Older sets and minifigures need to have their inventory created manually. To create an inventory for an item, go to the item, click on the edit tab, and then click the create inventory button.

Minifigures

When new sets are created, the parts of a Minifigure automatically added, but these need to be assembled in the figures. You can click on the link from a set inventory to go to the Minifigure creation form which speeds up the process
