Please make changes to the following inventory:
 
Set No: 6872  Name: Lunar Patrol Craft
* 
6872-1 (Inv) Lunar Patrol Craft
62 Parts, 2 Minifigures, 1985
Sets: Space: Classic Space

* Add 2 Part 4276 Blue Hinge Plate 1 x 2 with 2 Fingers (Alternate) (match ID 1)
* Add 2 Part 4275 Blue Hinge Plate 1 x 2 with 3 Fingers (Alternate) (match ID 2)
* Change 2 Part Blue 4276a Hinge Plate 1 x 2 with 2 Fingers and Solid Studs {match ID 0 to 1}
* Change 2 Part Blue 4275a Hinge Plate 1 x 2 with 3 Fingers and Solid Studs {match ID 0 to 2}

Comments from Submitter:
I have just sorted my collection of bricks from childhood sets. I have the following versions of 2x1 hinge plates in Light Gray and Blue: §§§

4276 (2 finger hollow stud): 4x blue §§§
4276a (2 finger solid stud): 1x blue and 2x light gray §§§
4275 (3 finger hollow stud): 4x blue §§§
4275a (3 finger solid stud): 3x blue §§§

They all belong to the three sets 6844 (1983), 6928 (1984), 6872 (1985) and 6055 (1985). §§§

The two light gray 4276a are from set 6928, therefore two of the blue 4275a must also be from this set.
This means that the one 4275a and one 4276a that are left must be from set 6844 which only has one of each (the other two sets left have two each).
This means that the 4 blue 4275 and 4 blue 4276 left must be from sets 6872 and 6055. §§§

This reasoning also aligns with the fact that sets 6844 and 6928 are the two oldest sets and therefore ought to have the solid stud versions. §§§

This means I need to add alternate parts to the later sets (6872 and 6055). This is one of them. I'm not sure that BL will allow me to post line breaks in this message, so I've used §§§ to indicate where lines end.

Set 6055 already had the alternates, so there's actually only this inventory
request, not two.
