Please make changes to the following inventory:
 
Set No: 8571  Name: Kopaka Nuva
* 
8571-1 (Inv) Kopaka Nuva
43 Parts, 1 Book, 2002
Sets: BIONICLE: Toa Nuva

* Delete 6 Part 32174 Black Technic, Axle Connector 2 x 3 with Ball Socket, Open Sides

Comments from Submitter:
There are only 5 used in the instructions.
BrickOwl only lists 5x 32174
I've used rebrickable's bot to pull an inventory from LEGO.com, and that came back with 5x 32174.
When I use Change, I get an error:
Entry #1: New Item Type & Item No is same as Existing Item Type & Item No

There are definitely only five of part 32174 used in the main build, and the
LEGO inventory agrees with this. However, the official part count for the set
is 43 pieces on the package, which means that the set included other parts that
were not used for the main model. When you check the LEGO inventory, you see
that there were definitely some parts included in the set not used in the main
model. These parts may have been used for the combination model built using other
Toa Nuva sets or just been included to customize Kopaka himself. So, even after
this one error is fixed that you have found, the inventory will still not be
completely correct.

Cheers,
Randy

Going through the Lego inventory, the following additional changes should be
made to the inventory:
change 4 to 3 black 4519
add 1 light gray 32039
change 2 to 3 light gray 4265c
change 3 to 4 light gray 32270

This would bring the total part count to 43. Only problem is that accuracy of
this inventory was confirmed from sealed set contents. That seems like a lot
of mistakes to make in verifying the inventory.

There is also the fact that the Lego inventory is not complete. So we can't
confirm correct quantities of parts that are not in the Lego inventory.
