At first I thought it might have been faked but sounds like you got it too. (...) (20 years ago, 28-Sep-04, to lugnet.general, FTX)

| | | | (...) Eric, Why do you call it the "Sweet Bucket of Joy"? I just got four of these with five identical polybags in each. I was disappointed that I got so many identical parts. The seven tubs I got earlier had different polybag contents in each so I (...) (20 years ago, 28-Sep-04, to lugnet.general, FTX)

| | | | | (...) I just picked up 3 tubs at a Sacramento (Northern California) TRU and they all had the more boring extra parts (URL) seen here> No nice minifig heads, no baseplates. I will try some other TRUs in the area if I get a chance, but this assortment (...) (20 years ago, 28-Sep-04, to lugnet.general, FTX)

Looks like the first sets had the good pieces and then it got worse. Interesting to note the (...) (20 years ago, 29-Sep-04, to lugnet.general, FTX)

| | | | | | (...) Mark, Roy, and Ram - In another part of this thread, Bruce said he bought 4 tubs with 5 almost identical bags in each tub. Those tubs had 3534 stamped on them, and three straps, instead of the usual two, holding the box to the tub. Did your (...) (20 years ago, 29-Sep-04, to lugnet.general, FTX)

| | | | | | | (...) My tubs do have the three straps, and they have the 3534 stamped (over the text near the UPC symbol). Good call - I wonder if your hypothesis is correct! Roy (20 years ago, 29-Sep-04, to lugnet.general, FTX)

The number of straps and the number stamped on them ring true. Though I would add another criteria -- I happen (...) (20 years ago, 30-Sep-04, to lugnet.general, FTX)

| | | | | | | (...) Some more data points - I hit up another TRU and found tubs with three straps and NO number stamped near the UPC. And they are AWESOME. Lots of minifig heads and all kinds of weird parts. I've posted pics at (URL) this Brickshelf gallery> once (...) (20 years ago, 30-Sep-04, to lugnet.general, FTX)

Also, none of the tub+box combos I've opened have had the full 1513 (...) (20 years ago, 3-Oct-04, to lugnet.general, FTX)

I've opened a few of these (or seen them opened) and the bags were all of the same type, but I don't think that they were identical (some had TrBlue Panel 1x4x3s, some had Orange 1x6s, some had no Gray 1x3x5s, . . .
