We do not usually accept change requests based upon box images or instructions
alone, as the box images or instructions can sometimes show completely different
parts than what actually came in the set. I would need much more substantial
evidence to accept these changes or add the variants as alternates.

For now, these requests will not be accepted.

Cheers,
Randy
