Just reflecting on pieces that have changed throughout the years...

1990) pieces? Hints below...

Hint #3:
It's a smallish set-- less than 100 pieces

Hint #5:
The piece that has since changed, making this set no longer functional is the
1x1 plate with round clip (4081 'Plate 1 x 1 with Clip Light')

Hint #6: (last one!)
This set has one of the largest PERCENTAGES (if not THE largest) of the
elongated triangle space laser pieces... more than 10% of all the pieces!
(part# 4596 'Space Wing 4 x 2')

Guess away!
