Based on this request:
https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1015490
I am moving 5 parts from the extra section to the regular. These parts are used
in alternate models as pictured on the box and they also round out the piece
count for the set, from 774 to 779 (official, as printed on boxes for the US
market).
The string and winch would have come assembled.
Interesting situation with the minifig heads. In sets with the early "stiff"
minifigs the head and torso were counted as separate pieces. This can be easily
seen from using the "Break Minifigs" feature in this inventory:
which will yield a total of 133, same as printed on the box.
And it is common knowledge that up until recent times, the head and torso were
counted as one piece and actually came assembled in new sets. I've always
assumed Lego made the switch in piece counting policy when the movable minifig
was introduced in 1978, but the castle set is evidence that perhaps the counting
policy (and maybe even the assembly policy) took a year or so to fall in place.
It would be interesting to hear from some folks who remember opening a set with
a minifig in 1978, if they could remember how it came assembled.
My first (and favorite) minifig was this guy:
from the tanker set, but I'm pretty sure I didn't get him in 1978. I
don't remember any fig growing up that came with the head separated from
the torso. It always seemed a little odd to take off the head to put air tanks
on the space figures.
Anyhow, even if the heads are counted with the torso, if the 2 blue slopes were
added we would still need 12 more pieces - sort of a stretch, but who knows.
Either way, the 5 pieces I'm adding now would be needed to meet the total.

| | All of the other requests were approved. For this part, I'm confused on
the role the rail with connector wire played and why it was later included as
an alternate.
Can you explain that in more detail, please? Does it have to do with the alternate
motor? Would the inclusion of a rail with a connection wire have changed the
type or quantity of connection wires which already exist in the inventory?
|
It does not have anything to do with the motors (alternate, regular, substitute,
extra or any type of motor).
I use a message that Morris wrote me (since his return in January, we put our
knowledge together and therefore, you are seeing many inventory change requests).
This is something important, and there will be many inventory change request
relating to this. So please do your best
I should say that the whole story is not very easy. It took me many months to
understand the whole evolution.
In 1980 the sets 7730 and 7740 were released coming with both curved and straight
conducting curved. In 1981 the set 7725 was released coming with ONLY curved
conducting rail. (TLG tried to release a nice train with three cars but using
less parts than 7730 or 7740. The result was 7725)
However there were interference problems, caused by the track, to radio or TV
reception, so the Lego Group introduced the special suppressor rail 3241c, which
was necessarily curved because it had to be included in 7725 (no straight rail
included in it). We believe that this happened in 1982. This part was also included
in 7730 and 7740 since 1982.
Please note that 3241c was always accompanied by the leaflet 117983, but unfortunately
this paper is not dated.
And also in the MIB 7740 provided by Bluxe (motor date 22 81) apparently there
is no 3241c. In my perfect boxed 7725 (in the same lot as those space sets) whose
motor is dated 29 81 there is no 3241c. So this is why we think it was released
in 1982.
This part was also included in 7735 and 7745 in 1985 as you see in the photos
of this sealed 7745. But in 1986, TLG decided to integrate 3241c and a wire that
had to be used to connect the conducting rails to the transformer (without wire,
the trains won't move )
The result, I believe, was
I have good evidence for this, otherwise, this part is not included in any set
on bricklink. In 1988, this part was replaced by
And this is another case for which the inventory does not have enough features.
I don't know what we can do with this. This is the summary of what I would
like to see one day for the inventory of 7745 and 7735:
1985:
1986-7:
* | | 117983b Paper Information Note, Special Suppressor Rail with Wire and Connector - 117983 Parts: Paper |
1988-90:
* | | 117983b Paper Information Note, Special Suppressor Rail with Wire and Connector - 117983 Parts: Paper |
How can we show this on inventory?

There could well have been some extra parts included for added play value, but
I'm inclined to say (and I suspect you'd agree with me) that it would
be best to see some evidence of this in a new set before adding the parts back
into the inventory.
I would think the parts would've been retained as extras instead of being
deleted altogether in 2011 if they had been proven to appear in the set.

You've been making inventory change requests for long enough now (around
140 or so approved changes . . . thank you and congratulations!) that I feel
comfortable asking you to please be more careful with the change request form.
For this batch of changes I had to make several modifications after approving
the requests, like changing colors of parts, adding Match IDs, and deleting other
parts.
On a positive note, though, all these changes were approved.

Comments from Submitter:
The decision to add 7 of these instead of 8 likely had something to do with the instructions not explicitly showing the sticker on the mounted knight. We've since expanded the sticker rules to include official Lego images as a source for stickered counterparts, and it's plain to see there are 8 of these in the set.

Comments from Submitter:
People sometimes ask me how I have time to mess around with old Duplo inventories. The truth is that Hygrotus does pretty much all of the work of verifying inventories and approving change requests. I simply rest on my laurels and occasionally glance at the odd inventory (like this one) to make it look like I'm working.
For this set, the only change I'm not reasonably confident in is the open/closed hitch change. However, this set was more likely to include the open hitch end and the original inventory source regarding this part was quite likely only a guess anyway because none of the pictures on any side of the set box make it clear. All the used sets I've seen for sale included the open hitch.
I'm not sure where these changes will leave the part count, but I'll add a second post with that information and also some photos.

| In general, the first variation should be regular as we don't know which
variation was used more. In this case, we know the answer. I think when one variation
is used less than 5% of all releases,, it should not be listed as regular. However,
one can add a note and explain this.
In general, we should add more notes and explain the difference between variations
and like, "the part XXXa appeared in all releases in 1979 but then it was replaced
by XXXb since early 1980".

I've just updated the relevant Help page to address this issue:
https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=1562
| to the site admins: Any note at the bottom of an inventory should be much more
prominent - these notes are being overlookedway too often (many cases in Forum
threads in the past).
I would like a red banner at the top of an inventory:
"IMPORTANT: Please see the inventory note at the bottom of this page"

I agree that they're being overlooked far too frequently. I would like to
see them moved to the top of the page. I asked and was told this would be considered
after some other improvements had been made.

P.S.: the image of the trans-red (and trans-yellow, trans-dark blue, trans-black)
1x1 plates 3024 should definitely be replaced by a photo (or a different drawing
like most of the other trans-colours), IMHO:

| Bonjour,
6 on left
39 in the middle. But 3 is on left side and 9 on right side. What does this give?
I checked my set from 1986-7. It does only have 3001 on left top side.

This set is most likely from the first production run as the date of motor is
45 4 (45th week in 1984). The light gray brick
is included suggesting that the old variation of it was never included in this
set.

Hi
if possible you can check the mould number in that brick (if there is one)

The other way we could go is to include the printed figure as regular since it
was unquestionably much more common and the sticker sheet/plain torso figure
as alternate.
I can configure the inventory however members would prefer it.

Fantastic job on collecting your pictures! The pictures for these requests are
large, clear, and incontrovertible. I've approved these requests and am
still looking over the others.
Just a word of caution, though: I have personally seen variations of these bricks
(old and new) mixed in the same set. It's something to look out for as you
continue your efforts. When I saw it in a sealed set it was based on color -
so the blue 2 x 3 bricks, for example, were new and the red 2 x 3 bricks were
old.

After some additional effort, I found a poor-quality image of the parts list.
It confirms that the number should be 10.

Comments from Submitter:
The official part count for set is 190 parts and set currently includes 191 parts.
Only 10 blank tiles are visible in current set photo. I've also looked at several used sets and it seems fairly evident that the set only included 10 blank tiles.
