| Please make changes to the following inventory:
* Delete 2 Part 4073 Trans-Red Plate, Round 1 x 1 Straight Side
* Add 1 Part 4073c01 Trans-Red Plate, Round 1 x 1, 2 on Sprue
Comments from Submitter:
Wasn't sure if the individual 1x1 plates should be moved to counterparts or not, so I left them off. Pictures to follow.

Photos from my sealed set. Note, the plastic bags that the parts are in differ
from what I would normally think of from this era (the stiffer plastic with holes),
but is similar to other sealed sets I have from the late 70s/early 80s.
Another change that I don't know if it would be made or not is that the minfig
torsos come pre-assembled with the heads attached.

Yes, I have seen both kinds of plastic bags in these older sets.

That is something that we are going to hopefully get to in the future for the
older sets, but we just do not currently have the systems in place to handle
it. The goal from my perspective is to get each inventory to have two separate
views: one that contains everything that a brand new set would have contained
(e.g. parts on sprue, parts on plastic sheets, unused sticker sheet, uncut hoses
and strings, extra parts, etc.), and one that would represent what a used set
would contain after being built (e.g. parts off of sprues, parts off of plastic
sheets, stickered parts, cut to length hoses and strings, no extra parts, etc.).
One becomes a historical record after time goes on and the majority of part-outs
have been done, and the other becomes the one that is more commercially viable
in the long run as new sets get harder to come by. Both kinds of inventories
have their advantages for collectors and buyers/sellers.
Cheers,
Randy
