| Please make changes to the following inventory:
* Change 1 Part {Dark Gray to Black} 4617 Propeller 3 Blade 5.5 Diameter
Comments from Submitter:
Verified from looking inside a sealed polybag. Also, more importantly: this set comes in TWO separate polybags (hence, the "1" in the picture). How does one adress this for inventary purposes? Please advise.

I'm not entirely sure what the "1" stands for in this case. It could be part
of a promotional series which included non-Lego toys. It's hard to say, since
polybags with identical set numbers were sometimes used in different markets
or at different times and had different packaging. Hence this set:
...where the large image shows a bag without the number "2".
Anyway, you fixed an 11-year-old mistake, eliminating the only instance of that
propeller in Dark Gray. The true color of the propeller is also attested in this
set from the same year:

I don't know why, but I just love seeing old sets get updated with correct
information. 
Cheers,

I respectfully disagree; I am *entirely* sure the 1 and 2 stand for two halves
of the same set, because:
a) I have a copy of either number (see photos);
b) the polybags are at least partially transparent;
c) I could perform both visual and tactile checks on the contents of both, and
can say with certainty: each bag has only 4 parts, not repeated from bag 1 to
bag 2.
I have in fact managed to list which parts are in which bag, but must humbly
admit my lack of skills to carry out the required update of the database (re:
create 2 subsets, like in advent calendars, I suppose).
Feel free to use my photos for inventory purposes; in fact, I took them months
ago and then forgot all about this inventory change request - please accept my
apologies for the negligence.
