| Please make changes to the following inventory:
* Change {2 to 1} Part Black 3002old Brick 2 x 3 without Cross Supports
* Change {11 to 12} Part White 3002old Brick 2 x 3 without Cross Supports
Comments from Submitter:
This set has two competing designs for the main models: the box cover and the instructions shows a build with a shorter funnel, while if you follow the steps in the instructions it requires one extra 2 x 3 brick. After surveying multiple sets the pattern is for sets in the best condition to come with only x1 black 2 x 3 brick with the stickers attached to a white 2 x 3 brick. Personally I suspect the copies with the stickers attached to a black brick are probably the result of people building the set like depicted on the instruction cover.

| I purchased a set of the first three Maersk sets (1650-1,1651-2,1552-1) from
a former Maersk Employee. It had 2 copies of Black 3002old Brick 2 x 3 without
Cross Supports. Which is why
is in black.

| Out of curiosity how many examples of boxed sets have you come across that came
with two black 3002old bricks? My inventory change request is based on examples
of four different sets that looked like they were relatively untouched, plus
my own personal copy that likewise looked like it had been hardly played with.
That is five copies already.
Personally I think it is more likely that your copy was built like how the set
is depicted on the box, and an extra part was substituted later, rather than
suggesting for reasons unknown multiple people added an extra white 3002old to
place the stickers on.
