| | | | (...) Hey Yanick! That's what I got! Two boxes of 3534! Not as great as those others that people in the States get, though. And by the way, how's your new house coming? And when will you re-open your Bricklink store? I like buying from you. ;) Keith (20 years ago, 30-Oct-04, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, lugnet.loc.ca, FTX)

| | | | | (...) Hey Keith! A friend of mind told me he got the box with the minifigs head. So there is hope, but I think I will save my money for other sets. My new house is finished, thanks for asking. I worked so hard in the last months, I did not get any (...) (20 years ago, 30-Oct-04, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, lugnet.loc.ca, FTX)

| | | | | (...) 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)

| | | | | (...) Was there a consensus on which box had the big arch part? Was that a two or three strap box? Darrell (20 years ago, 30-Oct-04, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, lugnet.loc.ca)
| | | | | | | | | | | | Re: What a trip I had to Markville! —Tim Strutt
| | | | | (...) 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)

| | | | | | (...) Mine was a one strap box ;-). It had lots of wings 'n' wedges in old grey (work that one out). It was a sweet box of joy. (...) only the old grey arches are similar). I had less printed pieces though. (...) WOW! Seems the only consistent thing (...)

| | | | | | | (...) No. Why? 1. I have already put all my pieces into my complex sorting system, and couldn't re-assemble the original set. 2. I only have one box, you have two. I don't think this is a fair trade. 3. I could send you all my pink, but since I (...)

It also has old grey's in the tub. Here's my pix of a 2714, and a 2814 stamped combo after (...)

The store clerk found the 2 I bought in their store room (not on the floor).
