I really like this piece, shame it's so rare! I used it for car fenders on vintage car MOCs.

I'm sure it will come out in more things. Give it a chance to be used for a while.
*ahem*
The Claw!
Seriously, though, Bricklink considers parts 91347 and 29070 to be the same part. Any idea why this doesn't even have a "similar to" link? Did it get cataloged by someone who didn't realize it was first used over a decade ago?
There goes our chance to get 4 metallic silver parts in the sidebar...
No Fric’n way.

Do you mean the ‘designs with the same name’ links on the part’s page?
All about that claw, ‘bout that claw, no friction!
@Kynareth:
Yeah, I’m not seeing links on either catalog page. These could be identical, but with new Design ID numbers assigned as it goes in and out of production, or to account for different molds required for different plastics, or they could have tweaked the 2022 version a tiny bit. Regardless, it seems to have gone unnoticed by the BL Catmins.
Any idea what the Sh. is an abbreviation for? I'm guessing Shaft, but that doesn't seem right for this part.
