Please make changes to the following inventory:
 
Set No: 10143  Name: Death Star II - UCS
* 
10143-1 (Inv) Death Star II - UCS
3447 Parts, 2005
Sets: Star Wars: Ultimate Collector Series: Star Wars Episode 4/5/6

* Change 1 Part {Light Bluish Gray to Dark Gray} 41529 Hinge 1 x 3 Locking with 2 Fingers and Claw End

Comments from Submitter:
On page 99 of the instructions from Lego it is clear that this item is not light gray, but should be dark bluish gray. The page for this item on Bricklink, though, indicates that Dark Bluish Gray essentially doesn't exist. However, considering when the item was introduced it might rather be that all parts identified as "Dark Gray" are in reality "Dark Bluish Gray"? Should it then be marked as just dark gray, or be set to dark bluish gray in this set?

Seems a catalog admin could add an inventory note about it

This is a mistake in the instructions manual, and I have added a note to the
set inventory so that the information is not lost.

Due to this, your request will not be accepted.

Cheers,
