I have added the image from the above review. The contents were taken from a
sealed set.

I can't find any evidence that the older variant 61054 was ever in the set,
and I looked over the contents of a few sealed set reviews. Even in all the used
sets I looked at, I didn't see any of the older variant 61054. 89651 would
have been a very new piece when these sets were released, so the original submitter
of the inventory probably didn't catch it. In fact, 89651 wasn't added
to the catalog until Aug 1, 2012, two years after the release of these sets.

I have accepted your change request and removed the older variant from the inventory.
If any evidence ever surfaces that the older variant came in the set at some
point, it can be added back. However, I highly doubt that.

I also did not find any evidence that 60176 in dark bluish gray was ever included
in the set. Therefore, I have also removed that variant and moved 89652 to the
Regular Items section.

Cheers,
Randy
