884d was added to the catalog specifically because it is what I got in this set.
Do these items need to be merged?

I am surprised that [p=884d] was added to the catalog.

All of the RCXs has a unique number on them. Adding all of them to the catalog
would make a huge mess and on sealed sets, we would not know the number prior
to opening the box.

If you have never seen more than one, here is some of my collection:

https://www.bricklink.com/aboutMe.asp?u=tomsmith&pageID=6084

Just my opinion, I have asked the catalog StormChaser about this addition as
I have not been as active as I have been in the past on the site.

They may very well be the exact same piece. I don't know how to tell.

I believe the point Thomas is making is that there are thousands of individual
catalogue entries that would be required is we added every individual serialized
box. I was not aware of this when I approved the request to add 884d, but I
believe it can be fixed by merging 884d with 884a.

The easiest way to tell is to look at two things.

Does the part say RCX 1.0 or RCX 2.0?

If it says RCX 2.0, it is a:

 
Part No: 884c  Name: Mindstorms RCX 2.0 without Power Jack - Complete Brick
* 
884c (Inv) Mindstorms RCX 2.0 without Power Jack - Complete Brick
Parts: Electric, Programmable

If it says RCX 1.0, you have to look at whether it has a power port. (Like the
one that you submitted)

If it has a power port, it is a:

 
Part No: 884a  Name: Mindstorms RCX 1.0 with Power Jack - Complete Brick
* 
884a (Inv) Mindstorms RCX 1.0 with Power Jack - Complete Brick
Parts: Electric, Programmable

If it does not have a power port, it is a:

 
Part No: 884b  Name: Mindstorms RCX 1.0 without Power Jack (from Mindstorms 1.5 sets) - Complete Brick
* 
884b (Inv) Mindstorms RCX 1.0 without Power Jack (from Mindstorms 1.5 sets) - Complete Brick
Parts: Electric, Programmable

Thank you for locating and reporting the problem! Much appreciated.
There is now no longer a 884d.
