Spelling error in Cuusoo BttF De Lorean set As spotted by some of the more eagle-eyed among you, there's a spelling error on a printed tile in the above set. /knowledgebase/articles/226962-information-about-the-back-to-the-future-set-flux-Do LEGO really need to do anything about this ?

I guess they could (and probably will) reprint the tile, correct the error in as-yet-undistributed sets and maybe even offer to send out the correct part to owners of the set who complain. caperberry said:I don't imagine the misprinted panel will command massive prices as a standalone piece. I assume TLG have made at least 10,000 of them, and it seems like everyone THINKS they'll be worth something so likely the market will be flooded with sellers. As for buyers, very few people would be interested in having a misspelt print in their collection. Surely no one will choose to use it over the correct version if they're making their own DeLorean. As for the misprinted piece sold as part of a MISB set, that might work for resellers. 'First Edition' sets aren't much of a thing in this aftermarket but this could be an exception. But there's still a lot out there so TLG will need to sell many tens of thousands of correct sets before this first run becomes desirable. And again the only desirable use for it is as a collectors' item.

Collectors will want the flawed version, assuming a new version will be coming out and replacing it. This isn't "Artic" Batman, this is a collector's kind of model with a passionate following.And I think there's a slight exaggeration up there. I don't think anyone expects to be rich off something like this, but will it add a couple bucks to the set? I think so, just like the now-retired glow version of certain Monster Fighters sets will have their value tweaked up compared to their non-glow counterparts.buy lego ev3 gyro sensorI'm guessing Lego will just reprint it and send out the corrected tile to those that call in. buy lego ice cube trayI doubt they will be pursuing any kind of pro-active recall or anything like that.buy lego juniors batman

Monster Fighters' glow is a functional difference that surely anyone would prefer. Who wants a flux capacitor that says SHEILD? tensor said:Buyers or collectors? Erm, well I guess I meant collectors will buy this, and resellers will buy this to resell to resellers and collectors.buy lego star wars character encyclopedia @tensor The Artic Batman was a classic. buy lego gladosDifficult to imagine how such a goof went unnoticed all the way through to the actual printing and production of the box. buy lego 9450

On the Celebrity Apprentice TV show the teams are often tasked with some type of marketing challenge. It is amazing how many times they have misspelled a brand name, a product name, a person's name. And, it never goes over well when that happens. Maybe LEGO would sponsor a CA task one day. And, then misspell something! #76000 was originally listed with "Artic" in the title. It was since fixed, but many Artics still remain on shelves.For the record, I think the spelling error was ridiculous, and Lego should be ashamed and embarassed. I suppose as least they didn't quote Marty in the booklet as saying "Are you telling me that this sucker is nuculear?" We unfortunately do not currently have a replacement for this piece to correct the misspelling. Please check back at a later date to know the status of any replacements. Russell844 said:So this time was different. My first request went through quickly. This time they want the number off of my instruction booklet. I too also got asked for the number on the back of the instruction booklet and my piece arrived the other day, sadly its the misspelt one :-(

KingOfTerrible said:I just received my order for part number 6083794...and it was still misspelled. The paperwork had the new number on it as well. Since this is a printed item, the part number is not molded into it so I can't tell if they mistakenly sent me the old part number. I called LEGO CS to inform them and request replacement. I suggested that they have someone check the bricks in the warehouse to see if they have the corrected ones, before just blindly sending them out. She said she would have some specialist look into it and she would get back to me in a few days about it. That kind of seven-digit part number would never be molded into a part, printed or not, because it's an Element ID, not a Design ID. Design IDs usually specify a specific mold and sometimes a specific material. Some printed parts also have different Design IDs than unprinted ones. In contrast, an Element ID specifies almost all the production information for a part, including mold, print, color, and material.
