Just entering my Lego collection and found out that Lego Builder Set #7641 is listed twice in the catalogue!

The second time it is in there as 7641 -1 .
See no reason why this was introduced later than the others.
I have added my photos to the previously posted article.

And then you want to address the administrator ... Is not there.
Then the Lego forum ... Is not there.
Understand that it falls under 'construction sets'. Fine.
:)
So reported here.

Hi RobbieEarle,

that there is no administrator of Lego, that is annoying. If you have so much Lego, then it is a real asset to CataWiki if you sign up as the manager of Lego building sets.

Unfortunately there is no manual for entering Lego building sets and other Lego, but this is clear a case of incorrect entry.

In my opinion, a construction set should be leading, because it is the easiest to check and thus act as the first image. Then, I think, the back of the box (this usually shows more) and then as the 3rd image the contents of the box. This can be in the box or just the built-up version.

At 2777203 , the data has been entered correctly, because it is after all in Dutch, so also the Dutch translation of the box (why you cannot enter multiple languages here is a mystery to me, would you then language to switch to that language?).

However, the object is a construction set, as you also mentioned. This is also mentioned at item 3345259 . However, that item is the built-up version of 2777203 and could therefore be used as picture 3 function of 2777203 .

It's just not the intention to combine boxes in 1 item, unless they are sold together through the official sales channels (including toy stores).

So both items have not been entered correctly, where I tend to 3345259 with the image of the box from 2777203 . The number 7641-1 actually only refers to the bus, because it is kit 7641, but then part 1 (the bus station). That's why there is also a 1 on the front.

And I think building set administrators read this too and may be very happy that there are people who want to manage a sub-area of the building set collection section.

In my opinion a Lego set is the same as a construction set.
Both items are a Lego set, a construction set. I don't care.

However, the set is so large that the structure of the parts is described in different booklets. Hence the 1 and 2 on the booklets. In my opinion it is a double entered item.

You are also talking about the Dutch translation of the box ?? The numbering applies to the entire world!
