As far as I can see now, it looks like the second variant only exists in Medium
Green and Red.
But I would like to be sure, before a possible split. Do you happen to have a
Medium Green in the older type and / or do you have the newer type in other colors
besides Medium Green?
The medium green image in the catalog looks very small (might have been the reason
that the difference wasn't noticed). Could you please submit a better image
in that color? If we would decide to split it can be moved to the new entry on
your name.
Thanks,
Diana

They have different part numbers.

BL has ignored stuff like this before because it’s not worth the hassle.
But if you want to keep item numbers just add them as alternates.
|
On closer inspection it is more than that. We don't have pictures of them
in box, but these listings are actually for Gear Sets. Those numbers are not
part numbers. They are product IDs.
|
Some sets can have alternate IDs too:
There are many gear items that only change in color and have different entries,
if the ID is saved as an alternate then we don't loose anything.
Missing also for merge these:
The blue comes in 2 different packaging:
PD: Seems the press release images or the first units didn't have the logo
on the square
|
You must have pressed the [Post] button a few seconds before I did 
|
Indeed just a few!
For gear items like this maybe there could be an exception on printing color.
|
I personally would like to do that, but it looks like we will have to discuss
that first.

Although I appreciate it very much that you are looking into this, I would also
appreciate it if you would wait with more requests like these. We already know
that there are more items that can be merged for the same reason, but doing that
takes a lot of time.
|
How about waiting with another request untill the one before is completed?!
And about the other replies, I handled these this week (take a look at the change
logs and gear images added this week)
and the numbers are indeed added as alternate item numbers, although if there
are too many they are hidden behind the blue buttons 
We are doing our best to get things done. There's no reason to say BL does
or did that. Let's focus on the present and please understand that changes
take time.

I'm not 100% confident with this one, for the images don't show all sides,
so there could be differences the images don't show. Like these are different
also (different on the BL images that is).
I found images online though, which do look the same as the other 3. So the BrickLink
image could be a render from a catalog or website and not represent the actual
item.
And then those will be left to merge just because of black instead of white printing.
I didn't have time to look for more differences.

The actual merge doesn't take much time.
But before we can merge we have to check if they are indeed 100% the same (except
for the color), then save all info and images of the items that are going to
be merged. All wanted lists and items for sale have to be updated.
And after the merge all this info and images have to be added manually.
So it's not just pressing a button

|
No! There are 3 different numbers. Look at the price sticker.
|
The price sticker was most likely applied by a retailer, and “there is no functional
difference” other than colour.
In the merged listing please add all the original item numbers as alternates

I also merged the black 990177

hmmm, who wrote that note?!

Good question! Do you think that this is evidence enough to challenge the note?
The original owner bought it new at the store for their kid.
|
Real evidence would be if it shows up in Canadian catalogs or if the box shows
it was produced in Canada.
|
A total sum of zero evidence is given for this claim which is of course simply
False.
|
The original owner (who still owns it BTW) said that they bought it new from
a store for their kid. Plenty proof if you ask me.

Proof is given. These sets were bought and seen by Canadian back in 70s, from
Canada. This is called proof.

For long time, I knew these two sets were sold in Canada as crystal evidence
has been there.
Though last night, having checked Canadian catalogs, I found out these two sets
also appear on the Canadian catalog from 1974.
|
It has been confirmed that both sets appear in the 1974 Canadian catalog (which
I don't have, so I couldn't check myself). It would have saved us both
a lot of time though, when you would have submitted this request with an image
of that catalog of 1974 you have.
Notes have been changed for both sets.

Real evidence would be if it shows up in Canadian catalogs or if the box shows
it was produced in Canada. Also, in that period Homemaker Sets / Building Sets
with People were sold with a different number in North America, like
versus
Although BrickLink shows a mix of set numbers sold in Europe & Canada versus
USA and Europe versus Canada & USA.
North America also had it's own unique sets later on, like
So I don't see it as evidence enough to say that this set was also released
in Canada, unless I am missing Canadian info on your box images. Or maybe someone
could check all their Canadian catalogs of 1974 and up. I will ask Russell if
he has a Canadian catalog showing this set.
