|
| Original Boxes (for 5983-1) were produced in two styles, an older style (where
end flaps were glued) and a newer style (end flaps have corners notched and flap
sealed with adhesive seals). The two styles will cause a subtle difference in
the weight of the OB.
Old style has production number embossed into end flap, new style has production
number printed on one of the seals.

| Certain production runs of this set
came with a Rock Raiders comic book, while others did not.
If you look closely at the Original Box image, you will note the orange outlined
item in the lower right corner of the front surface. That is the indicator that
this was the run with the comic book.
The copies I have remaining (one of which has a good condition front panel) do
not have that orange outlined flash message. Of the 20-30 copies I obtained (between
2001 and 2002) I do not ever recall seeing a comic book. It possible (just a
hunch tho) that the comic book was primarily shipped in EU productions runs.
I'll try to get a good image of this box front to illustrate the difference.
This may also necessitate some adjustment to the inventory to show the comic
book to be optional.
thanks, Nita Rae

| Original box was issued in two styles, one has a vertical illustration (used
primarily for retail sales) and the other has a horizontal illustration (observed
where the set was included in the 65062 co-pack).

| Weight varies by box style. Heavier cardboard (glued shut, no tray) weighs 269.9
gms. Lighter cardboard (seals on flap, with tray) weighs 286.8 gms. Both will
affect weight of original box.

| Please add the following note ...
Some boxes were sealed with glue and some with vinyl seals. Glue sealed copies
do not have a tray, while vinyl sealed copies did come with a tray. Total set
weight may vary as much as 40 gms due to tray being present.

| Different examples of this item have been observed to have different weights.
The one I have here weighs 553.8 gms, while the original weight submission has
been reconfirmed at 570 gms. The two examples had different mold slot numbers,
but the same mold design ID. Suspected to be a design where precision (in wt
and dims) was less important.
