(...) From what I see in front of me, and what I have read from other posts and BrickShelf descriptions, the 2-strap box/tub combo has a stamp of 2714 beside the barcode on the tub, and the 3-strap has a stamp of 3534. Which should make the 2714 tub (...) (20 years ago, 30-Oct-04, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, lugnet.org.ca.parlugment, lugnet.loc.ca, lugnet.market.shopping)

(...) ParLUGment has bought many 4679's in Ottawa and the concensus is that the 3-strap tub/box has the wings and wedges, and the 2-strap tub/box is the sweet box of joy. Also, as an added bonus, the 2-strap tub/box has OLD GREY inside the tub. Play (...) (20 years ago, 30-Oct-04, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, lugnet.loc.ca)
