There may be one new piece here. Consider a 1x1 plate with 2 fingers on both
edges? Plug that into a clip to clip into the bottom of the rail
Either that or they borrowed your unsymmetric method and we can't spot it.
I would rather they used the old panto as in 4551 but that doesn't allow for
diamond pantos, only L (single sided) pantos

My complements to the hoaxer if it is a hoax (Suz weighing in on the hoax side
does carry some weight with me, she knows a fair bit about image prep and how
Lego does things stylistically) and my complements to the set designers if not.
Hopefully the latter. But like I said (and no one's called me on it) point me
to a successful hoax of this magnitude in our hobby, please... hasn't been one
IIRC.
