| Please make changes to the following inventory:
* Add 1 Part 44815b Pearl Black Bionicle Mask Kraahkan, 4 Hole Chin (Alternate) (match ID 1)
* Change 1 Part Pearl Black 44815a Bionicle Mask Kraahkan, 6 Hole Chin {match ID 0 to 1}
Comments from Submitter:
The inventory of this set should be updated to reflect changes to the Kanohi made during production. The first production run of this set included the Kanohi mask with the 6 hole chin as originally designed. (Item# 44815a)
However, the injection mold for this Kanohi would often misprint and produce elements that only had 5 hole chins. This mold was then altered mid-production to block off the upper 2 chin holes that caused mismold issues, resulting in the 4 hole chin design (Item# 44815b) that would be used for subsequent runs of this Kanohi until its last use in 2008.
