Please make changes to the following inventory:
 
Set No: 4776  Name: Dragon Tower
* 
4776-1 (Inv) Dragon Tower
63 Parts, 2 Minifigures, 2004
Sets: DUPLO: Castle

* Change 1 Minifig {47394pb014 Duplo Figure Lego Ville, Male Castle, Black Legs, Bright Light Orange Chest, Red Arms, Red Hands to 47394pb013 Duplo Figure Lego Ville, Male Castle, Black Legs, Bright Light Orange Chest, Red Arms, Dark Bluish Gray Hands, Open Mouth}
* Change 1 Minifig {47394pb012 Duplo Figure Lego Ville, Male Castle, Black Legs, Red Chest, Bright Light Orange Arms, Bright Light Orange Hands to 47394pb004 Duplo Figure Lego Ville, Male Castle, Black Legs, Red Chest, Bright Light Orange Arms, Dark Bluish Gray Hands}

Comments from Submitter:
After checking the box it seems above mentioned minifigs (47394pb013 and 47394pb004) are the ones depicted on the box. So, I assume these should be mentioned as the "regular" minifigs. Unless there are also different versions of the box. They are quite similar to the ones inventoried in the set right now, but not the same.

I could not find any good evidence to back these requests up. In fact, some very
nice looking used sets that I found seemed to show the minifigures that are already
in the inventory. Given that this inventory was confirmed a number of times as
well as the fact that the parts lists on DUPLO boxes are notorious for not being
completely accurate, these requests will not be accepted without further proof
beyond box images.

Cheers,
Randy

Thanks a lot for your reply.
I am aware that alternate minifigs are often found in the duplo sets.
Nevertheless, I would like to ague that the inventory as stated on the box should
be the default, and all other minifigs added as alternates.

Currently, I own three of these (used) sets and all of them contain the minifigs
as I have suggested.
In addition, I think used sets are often "made whole" according to the bricklink
parts list.
And if the "alternate items" are listed in the parts list as the default ones,
I would guess you will find more used sets containing these "alternate minifigs"
because they were made "whole".

Thanks,
Nick

Yes, they are.

The inventory on the box should *only* be the default if those minifigures really
came in the set to begin with. Like I said before, these package lists are notorious
for not being 100% correct for DUPLO sets. Since I have no proof from original
sealed sets to verify this, I must go with what the submitter of the inventory
found when doing the inventory.

  Currently, I own three of these (used) sets and all of them contain the minifigs
as I have suggested.

Were they purchased as used by you? Or are you the original owner, that is
what you have, and the figures were not mixed between sets? There is a big difference
in your answers to these questions about the usefulness of the answers.

  In addition, I think used sets are often "made whole" according to the bricklink
parts list.

That could be, but that is not our issue. There is a disclaimer on every inventory
that specifically states "BrickLink does not guarantee an inventory to be correct
and therefore an inventory should be only used as a guide."

Cheers,
Randy
