How to Upload XML Code to BrickLink
- Open the .rtf file containing XML code.
- Copy the entire contents of the text starting with “<INVENTORY>”.
- Go to https://bricklink.com.
- Create an account on BrickLink if you don’t have one yet. Make sure you’re signed in.
- In the drop-down menu options under your profile, select “My Wanted Lists”.
- There will be several tab options in your ‘Wanted Lists’ section; select “Upload”.
- Select the sub-tab “Upload BrickLink XML format”. Then, under the ‘Add to:’ drop-down menu, choose “Create New Wanted List” and give it a name.
- Paste the entire text you copied in Step 2.
- Click “Proceed to verify Items”; at this point you should see the list of parts you need to purchase.
- You can now buy all the parts you need by selecting this newly created wanted list from your My Wanted Lists section and either choosing the ‘Easy Buy’ button or clicking into the wanted list and choosing ‘Buy All’ for more cart-creation options (e.g. limiting sellers/stores to only those from your country, etc.).Pro tip: If you have multiple models you’re shopping for (e.g. gun and display stand and display plaque), it’s highly recommended you upload all their parts to the same Wanted List so that you can more easily combine them into the smallest possible number of shopping carts / stores / orders placed at the same time for less expensive shipping.
If you encounter any parts errors (for example, parts 3062b, 3068b, 3069b and/or 3070b) when trying to upload your parts list code to BrickLink, open the text file with XML code in a text editor app, search for those codes (Command+F or Ctrl+F) and delete the ‘b’ or other add-on letter in each code. If you encounter any further issues, please contact me.
About the Models
These custom LEGO Star Wars lightsabers are designed as premium display pieces. They feature:
- advanced building techniques
- sturdy blades for gentle swinging
(yes, they are capable of dueling to some degree)
These Jedi and Sith blade models are a fun conversation-starter for you and your family/friends! If you like my LEGO replicas, please support my work and purchase a set of instructions.
So grateful for your support!
~ Cole Edmonson
Please note that these LEGO models, while they use advanced building techniques in each blade that make them more resistant to breaking, are still relatively fragile and cannot be expected to hold together under sustained periods of stress without continual re-compression of the pieces. “LEGO” is a trademark of The LEGO Group, which the seller is not affiliated with or endorsed by: same goes for Disney/Lucasfilm and their Star Wars property.
Note that this is a digital purchase that gives you the access and individual right to download and use the instruction files, parts lists, and XML code for these custom models. You will not receive any physical items or pieces as part of this transaction.
