There are obviously two different versions of the polybag since one of them has
the older-style LEGO BASIC branding on it and one of them has the newer-style
LEGO SYSTEM BASIC branding. I wouldn't be surprised if this part was changed
when the set packaging was changed. I will need to do a little research on this
to see what the right way to proceed is.

Cheers,
Randy

The newer version of the set from 1993 definitely came with the brick with the
white around the eyes. Unfortunately, I could not find any information on the
first version of the set from 1987. Being a set from 1987, I believe it is very
possible that the first version of the set came with the brick without the white
around the eyes. Instead of an outright change, the brick with the white around
the eyes will be added as an alternate to the set.

Cheers,
Randy
