Please make changes to the following inventory:
 
Set No: 6876  Name: Alienator
* 
6876-1 (Inv) Alienator
80 Parts, 1 Minifigure, 1988
Sets: Space: Blacktron I

* Add 4 Part 3940b Black Support 2 x 2 x 2 Stand with Complete Hole (Alternate) (match ID 1)

Comments from Submitter:
Set owned since new and was still complete and intact in larger mixed box. All four supports were complete hole, and no other supports were present in the box (either 3940a or 3940b) so these must be the originals from the set. Note that, unlike most 3940b in my spare parts bin, these supports only have two mold numbers on the bottom and do not have a "c" or "lego" there, implying they are of an older vintage which would be reasonable for a 1988 set. Given that 1988 was the last year for 3940a whereas 3940b is reported to have existed as early as 1980, it seems highly likely that at least some 6876 sets were produced with 3940b.
