Customer ordered this set ...

 
Set No: 4477  Name: T-16 Skyhopper
* 
4477-1 (Inv) T-16 Skyhopper
93 Parts, 1 Minifigure, 2003
Sets: Star Wars: Star Wars Episode 4/5/6

When I pulled it from inventory, something about the sound coming from the box
bothered me. All 3 copies I have are sealed (i.e. glued shut). The weights I
found are ...

240.61 gms

206.09 gms

205.81 gms

That is a rather large discrepancy between the first one and the other two. The
one in the middle shows distinct signs that the factory injected too much adhesive.
No obvious signs of having been opened and resealed. Seems rather odd to me.

A second pair of instructions would be my guess
