I accepted the other request but I would reject this one as the 3183a version
was confirmed per the inventory note and we usually don't add variants based
on only box art.

Differences between actual contents and box pictures:

Pine trees (3471) instead of granulated bushes.
Part 3183a blue towball socket instead of 3183b.

Inventory is based on 2 opened-box sets, one of which was nearly MISB.

I updated it now to not exclude your proof that is now in the logs of the set
inventory for the tree.
