I ran into this block of extras not broken out while mining for PCC. I checked the instructions and confirmed. Each half of the model uses 4 pins, 2 bush, and 2 half bush. I'm leaving the bands alone.

Are only 4 of the bands used? The box says this set contains 195 pieces, and
the inventory comparison says 4 rubber bands.

I think only 2. But I decided not to touch the bands because they are tricky
and just what I did will attract Randy's attention to the set.

Yes, these counts are confirmed by ICT and my quick check of the instructions,
so I will accept these changes.

Also, I see also only two rubber bands being used. This photo suggests that there
are indeed six and four of them are extra:

https://brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=3003212

For now, I will change the rubber band count to 2 with 4 extras. This makes the
set contain 193 parts.

Where did 195 count come from? I can't see it on the box.

That wasn't visible on the BrickLink box photo. I guess I should have done
a Google search.

I will change the inventory to reflect the official number of bands and add a
note that only two are actually needed for building.

I have now changed the number of regular bands to 4 so it aligns with LEGO data
and makes the brick total correct for the set. A note was added also.
