Anyway, I seem to remember that 125 had 233 pieces, not 222.  It had a

stiff or otherwise, in this set, and the doors were not minifig scale.
The doors are 1x3x? (maybe 4 high as Gary says).

do not open.  Now I am confused; which came with the 125, the 1x2x3 that didn't
open or the 1x3x4 that did?

No it was the 1x3x4 door.  They started making that one around '73 or '74.  The
classic 1x2x3 door (made since '57) was still produced in a few sets in '75 (#148,
#400), but was totally discontinued by '77, when the regular minifigs came onto the
scene.  Around the same time ('77) the 4 brick high door was discontinued in favor
of the 5 brick high doors still in use today.

(...) Hmm. That answers my question of which one came with set 125, but leaves me with a puzzle: where did my 1x2x3's come from, then? The only sets I got as a child in the 70's were 125, 410, and 420. All of the rest of my collection has been (...) (25 years ago, 7-Mar-00, to lugnet.general)
