For Bricklink:

Thank you for righting a wrong on your buyers and patrons. A very noble and honorable
gesture.

For Bricklink Catalogue staff:

Why is the an entry for "original box". It comes in a sealed bag inside
a clip lock bag, with instructions and a sincere flyer card.

From me to you....Just because I am "that guy":

Why is this called a "25th anniversary gift". I believe the bird is clearly
a "blue headed Poinus" from Brazil.

Now if we can have a Star Wars Jedi minifig named "BoB", we can have
a bird called "Russell or Dan".

Can we please give this poor little birdy a name, limited editions should be
a lego icon like the multiples of EVERY BDP set I have dated back to BL19001.

Again thank you, life has been tough on me lately, it pepped me up considerably.

LOL, Yes I own 2 of them!

Its a good thing TLG (no inference to BL) has gone the way they have with packaging
and making it uniformed in the way of "box, blister pack or polybag".

Look at something like the 3920. A box in "shrink wrap"
