Well, as far as the package goes, there ARE two G1 Bluestreaks! One has assortment number "5750", and the other one has "5765". The figures may be identical, so there will be only one figure record, but there are definitely two packages. I include both packages because it's just one more piece of information that will help someone identify exactly which toy he holds in his hands. This sort of thing will become more useful once I finally get around to building the "Advanced Search" interface.

Yeah, I'll think about the loose figure vs. packafe ownership issues in a bit. I plan to seriously overhaul the whole system, so hopefully I can find a way to make that kind of thing go away.

Override has been fixed! I ran into some data bugs when I reworked the photo system. Will be more careful next time.

Thanks for the report, Tec, keep 'em coming...

Don't worry, I'll come up with something to make ya happy. Maybe I'll compute the completion percentage by looking at which figures you own, instead of package. I'll get to it eventually, I promise. Hang tight, buddy...

Alright, Tec, let's say we simplify things. I'll maintain two "owned" lists, one for figures complete in package, and one for loose figures. In other words, both the figures and package entries will have "I own it" checkboxes, and you simply check whichever one you have. Then, when computing completion percentage, we'll go by distinct loose figures, and not packages, with the understanding that if you own a package, you get credit for owning whichever figures it contains.

How's that sound?
