  Hi. Brand new to the forum and excited to be a late Lego bloomer. My fiance and
I had recently bought a house and most of the belongings were left behind. I
noticed a giant box of Lego that looked to be in immaculate condition, so I started
going through it and realized I had a complete Lego 375 castle set along with
a bunch of other vintage complete sets. My question is, how do I distinguish
between the versions? I'm curious what version I have of the 375. It's
not 375/6075, the manual just says 375. Nothing else. I have attached a photo.
The manual is in excellent condition too. They took care of their toys. Any
help would be appreciated.

Cheers!

  Brick seperaotrs could get the big chunks off, but not the residue, thus the
screwdriver. Have you ever used Isopropyl Alcohol? I saw that and warm water
were the two biggest suggestions, but don't know which one will work better.

Thanks, Noah

I recommend these adhesive removal wipes. Safe on skin, friendly to fingernails,
and removes residue in seconds.

Actually, v1 is classified as
 
Part No: 48729a  Name: Bar   1L with Clip Mechanical Claw - Rounded Edges
* 
48729a Bar 1L with Clip Mechanical Claw - Rounded Edges
Parts: Bar
and both v2 and v3 are classified as
 
Part No: 48729b  Name: Bar   1L with Clip Mechanical Claw - Cut Edges and Hole on Side
* 
48729b Bar 1L with Clip Mechanical Claw - Cut Edges and Hole on Side
Parts: Bar

There is now also a v4 that is listed under 48729b, too.

The admin team sees no reason to further differentiate such a common and ubiquitous
part beyond the first version which is not in System and the other three that
are.

Cheers,
Randy

TIL, thanks for sharing!

  The variations between A & B
Is the difference between the ends?
A: rounded edges
B: cut edges and hole on side

Or the Claw End and the Slope? Does the cut edge only have the hole, rounded
edge has no hole?
Or is there something else that I'm missing in the comparison?

Thanks for any help you in the Bricklink community can provide.

You do know that is about as likely as Nubs not using emoticons OR SylvainLS

Oh I thought he gets his mental gymnastics here and does his street fighting

Fascinating.

Ah, a Vulcan, this explains a lot!
