I have one here from set 6385 with the fused string (never mixed with other sets)
That's from 1985 which is newer than your 4025 set.
But to complicate matters the one in 6385 is in the set as part of an assembly.

If you don't agree with our decision then just collect the cheapest and consider
your commander fox collection complete.

One question I asked him was what other similar SW print variations or errors

The set is listed as having two Black Propeller 3 Blade 3 Diameter with Axle

on are pins, not axles, as per the official LEGO instruction book. Suggestion:
change the 2x 6041 into 2x 65768 (Propeller 3 Blade 3 Diameter with Pin Hole).
I do not own the set, but the part existed at the time of the set's release,
and it would then make sense.

I watched a couple videos and apparently the axle connection doesn't go all
the way through that part. I saw someone stick it on a pin.

Yes a pin clicks in nicely and allows the propeller to spin freely on a part

I'm not sure the thick/thin ring is intentional - that just seems like standard

If you could provide the evidence from sealed set contents/set reviews etc that
the solid silver version was intentional and always came in a certain set(s)
then we would certainly consider it but like I say we would need solid proof.
Failing that the best we could do is add a note to the catalog entry mentioning

Example: Just paid a member within the EU, for some heads. Having never transacted
with this member before, I initially thought the price good. Silly me. At least
they only used one of the two available "additional charges" columns
In moving forward, what I typically do is create a note for the member (collected
quite a few over the years) so that the next time I am pondering a buy with them,
I’ll know to factor these types of costs (shipping rate and additional charges)
before pulling the trigger. For me it’s that simple.
I gotta say though, that it's been buyer experiences like this, that have
motivated me early on to structure our selling practice with no additional charges
and low shipping costs, to the point that we often subsidize the shipping by
a small amount. I'd rather bake any ancillary costs into our prices than
hit the buyer with them afterwards.

Could be worse...
Imagine a Bricklink where sellers could make up their own fictional and inflated
exchange rates to convert from USD to their native currency when invoicing

Adding stickered part

Thanks for this - I have approved and edited but for future reference stickered
parts are a 'counterpart' rather than an 'alternate' and don't
require a match ID.

Part description should be ajusted in order to add set 42097, or references to sets should be removed if it's considered too long.

The one from this set is a slightly different pattern (compare the central red
triangle and white chevron around it in the attached to the catalog entry here)

So a new catalog entry is needed for the one in set 42097. If you have it to
hand you are welcome to submit it. Ask here if you need additional help.
Thanks
Paul.

If anyone has both Sets 42141 and 10304 can we please ask you to check the mirror
stickers and let us know if there is any difference between them?

| In Catalog, par016 writes:
| | Just wanted to give a heads up to some of the more avid Star Wars minifigure
collectors that there has been some development in the sw0112 discussion. The
origins of this figure and its subsequent deletion from the catalog has been
a topic of discussion here on the forums before without any real answers or direction.
Here is the information I have gathered and the changes to the catalog as a result:
- sw0112 was added to the catalog in 2004
- Shortly after being added to the catalog, it was marked for deletion because
it is not an official minifigure. It claimed to be from set 4504-1 and/or 4504-2
but if you look up the instructions for that set, not only do the figures in
that set have light nougat heads, instead of yellow like this figure, the assembly
of the Han Solo figure shows him wearing the hair piece and not the parka/hood
piece. Per BrickLink's guidelines on minifigure inventories, an item should
only be included in the inventory if the official instructions show it as being
assembled.
- Instead of being shown as assembled on Han Solo, this parka/hood piece is shown
as an accessory that is placed inside the falcon in step 24.
- At this point, many believed that this figure was unique in that it had a hood/parka
piece with different colors/markings (white fur) than any other Han Solo figure
(such as sw0253/a). As a result, this figure has somewhat been treated like
a misprint or rare collector's item. The lack of an inventory for the
figure marked for deletion left collectors with the task of understanding the
difference between the prints on the two parka/hood pieces and has at times sparked
some debate of giving the minifigure a catalog entry again.
- I began digging into this a bit more and received information from the original
submitter of the figure that confirmed a suspicion of mine: When they took the
photo, they just took it of a minifigure they had assembled in that set without
looking up what the instructions had assembled.
- Digging further the catalog admin and I were able to determine that the hood/parka
piece in step 24 of this set was in fact different from the only similar one
in that catalog. This one had white fur, while the other one had tan fur, and
only the tan version was a catalog item.
- So the white fur parka/hood piece had been added to the catalog
and the inventories for 4504-1 and 4504-2 have been updated to the white version.
The tan fur version of the parka/hood piece has been changed to an undetermined
pattern entry and marked for deletion.
and a new entry for the tan version has been added to the catalog as well:
with sw0253 and sw0253a inventories being updated to reflect this.
- sw0112 is not an official Star Wars figure, but if you want to create it yourself,
there is now a listing for the "unique" parka/hood piece.
