Gear items cannot have original box entries. Only the Set item type has this
feature.

In this case, though, what you are looking at is two entirely different game
entries. One of these entries is for the game in the normal cardboard box packaging
(31390), and the other entry is for the game in the collector's tin (31391).
31391 is _not_ just the packaging for 31390.

Cheers,
Randy

I missed that little nuance.
I’ll put in the change then like I did for 31390.
