Comments from Submitter:
Adding in Alternate part colour for Harvester tube as it could also come in either colour.

Unsure of which part colour was more common.

Are you sure that this part was ever made in Pearl Light Gray? The reason that
I ask is because I cannot find an image of the set with one that look like Pearl
Light Gray. They all look like Light Bluish Gray to me. Even the image on BrickLink
for this part that is classified as Pearl Light Gray does not look like Pearl
Light Gray.

Cheers,
Randy

Hi Randy,

The only reason I've kept Pearl Light Gray in is because I have seen an image
of the part in that colour (see the image just submitted for PLG) and that is
the original inventory

I've submitted a new image for LBG as well and if the consensus is that it
is the more common variation than maybe PLG should be marked as the alternate.

There seem to be a few DUPLO parts where lego has alternated between PLG and
LBG during the run of a set.

Cheers,

Mark

Thanks for the information, Mark. That image that you submitted for PLG definitely
looks like PLG, so I will move ahead with this request.

I bet that
 
Part No: 58069  Name: Duplo Farm Harvester Underside Door
* 
58069 Duplo Farm Harvester Underside Door
Parts: DUPLO, Vehicle
might have also come in PLG at some point then.

Cheers,
Randy

Possibly but the only evidence of that is the box art/promo images of the set
which also show a variation on the harvester with part of it black when the actual
part is all red. The PLG may have been prototypes or very early production.

Cheers,

Mark
