Good points. So the neck-marked torso would be the first among many
patterned torso parts. Sort of like the plain minifig head vs. the
smiley-face minifig head.
(checking Partsref) Drat! 973p01 is already taken! That would have been
the perfect choice for "minifig torso with neck mark". ;)
You realize that to make this change (remove the neck mark from 973.dat,
and add it where appropriate) requires changing *all* the patterned torsos?
37 currently released, another 10 in 2000-02. There is an advantage to
this approach: we can use the correct colors for the neck-marks. No more
color-24 warnings from l3p/l3lab. :)

| (...) How about 973p00 ? (...) But it'd really be a one-line change, with an easily recognizable failure condition (i.e. the neck mark doesn't show up), so not many worries there. Cheers, - jsproat (24 years ago, 21-Aug-00, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
