In the pictures of this MISB set you can see a yellow brick 3001 and a yellow
brick 3002old.

brick 3001old; a yellow brick 3002old; yellow bricks 3001old.

In the pictures of this MISB set you can see all the mentioned bricks in their
old version; the old version was included in early releases of the set, while
the version with cross supports was included in later releases.

I realized I probably made a mistake in my inventory change request concerning
bricks 3002, both yellow and blue: the pictures I added prove that the old version
was included in that set, on the contrary I do not think the modern version (with
cross supports) was at all. As a reference for this fact please consider the
Basic set 366-1:

 
Set No: 366  Name: Basic Set
* 
366-1 (Inv) Basic Set
166 Parts, 2 Minifigures, 1981
Sets: Universal Building Set: Basic Set

which was produced in the same period (1981-1984).

I didn't see any white 3001 in any of the pictures, so I was able to handle
all of the requests except keeping the white 3001 as alternates. Are there any
other images that might show any white 3001? If not, how certain can we be that
these sets would have also contained white 3001 at some point?

Cheers,
Randy

Hello Randy,

the white 3001 (with cross supports) in fact cannot be seen either in any of
the pictures I added, or in the pictures of other MISB sets that I saved in my
computer, so I understand this rejection, even if I think there is a good chance
that the white 3001 (with cross supports) was contained at some point (I hope
I will find in future some photos to prove this fact).
But I think you did a mistake, the white 3001 (with cross supports) is actually
part of the inventory, so please remove it and add the white 3001old (as shown
by the pictures I added), thanks!

No mistake. I had not processed those requests, yet, since I was waiting for
your response. Now that I have seen your response, those requests will be processed.

I apologize for having said a wrong thing, and thank you for accepting the request.
