I bought this set with box and everything from Germany few months ago. I can
say the parts are original. Some are yellowed. And yes, all the light gray round
bricks were solid stud. Did the previous owner or owners replaced all 52 open
stud 3062b with solid studs 3062a? All the 52 copies of them? I don't know
if the submitter have an original copy of this set coming with light gray 3062a,
but I believe this inventory change request is correct.

Mine, like yours, was bought recently with box etc and - for the most part -
the correct vintage of parts. Also, so far as I am aware, 3062b didn't appear
before 1979, so while it's possible this set was packed with 3062b at some
point during its lifetime, it would originally have had 3062a.

Based on year of release I believe that this set must have originally come with
3062a. And it is a very rare part in light gray, so I doubt that someone would
have switched them all out in both of your used sets. It is possible that later
releases of the set came with 3062b, but we can always add it back later as an
alternate if that is the case. For now I am inclined to accept this request,
but I'll leave it open for a day or two to give other owners of this set
the chance to tell us if they found 3062b in their sets.

I purchased three of these sets some (more then 10) years ago: One from Australia,
one from France and one from Germany. All three were packaged in their opened
box or built once and never took apart. All three had the closed part version
3062a.

Thanks for that link. So now we know that both variants came in this set. I'll
accept this request to change the regular part to 3062a and I'll add 3062b
as alternate.
