Darth Legolas Posted February 6, 2010 Posted February 6, 2010 Apparently, the 8284 set had two different boxes. With the exact same piece, one box had the Dune Buggy as the main model and one box had the Tractor as the main model. Does anyone have an explanation for this? http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?S=8284-1 http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?S=8284-2 Thanks! EDIT: While you're at it, can you tell me what a dynamic image tag is, and why all of the recent pictures I've tried to post that aren't my own come up as one? Quote
CP5670 Posted February 6, 2010 Posted February 6, 2010 The US boxes had the buggy on the front and other countries had the tractor. Apparently TLG thought a tractor wouldn't sell well in the US for some reason. The main model of the set was obviously the tractor though. A dynamic link contains extra commands for the server (usually specified by a question mark), instead of just a direct location of the image. I'm not sure why EB doesn't allow them though. There might be some technical issue with getting them to display properly when embedded in posts. Quote
