Answers.Text: This is fairly easy to do if you add all the pieces to a wishlist in Bricklink (go to the page for the set and then click on the Part Out link under My Wanted List. You can now go through the building steps from the manual and mark each piece needed in the wanted list. When done with the first bag you have a list of all the pieces you need, and you can order them straight away from Bricklink using the list and the Buy All option.)

Answers.Text: I, for one, would prefer they spend their money elsewhere, instead of on maintaining a database that almost nobody ever uses. If they already **have** the data (and surely they must, to fill the bags) in such a way they could easily export to BrickLink (much less likely), then sure, why not.

Answers.Text: True. They already publish it in the instructions, but there's a difference between making information available and making it **easy**. Anyone who wants to can measure a 2x4 brick, but that doesn't mean Lego needs to go out of their way to publish the size.

  [Lego's own building instructions](https://www.lego.com/en-us/service/buildinginstructions/7964) will show you which bag you open when, so if you are willing to look at each step before bag 2 is used, they must have come from bag 1 (unfortunately, this includes minifigures).
