Hello Paul.
What I really ment was that, I do not consider it the "Real-thing".
I also think that the pieces in the set makes it valuable (rareness, etc)
not the set itself. As it is not, in my eyes "Complete". For a set to be
"Complete" I need the box and instructions and all pieces.
And to be considered "Original" it has to be MISB, or every part of what i
consider to be "Complete", be originally from the same box...
Keep in mind, this is my personal definition. And there may be a conflict
between words, this is not my best language..
BTW, isn't it a 4*6 plate with holes?
And I think you also need the blue, rare extreme slope to complete the set
;-)
