These hinges were produced between 1983-84. Since 1985, they were replaced with hinges with hollow studs. As of today, I have not seen any set released (or produced)in 1985 or later, coming with hinges with solid stud. I have checked many new and used copies, from Europe or USA. It is interesting the transition from solid to hollow happened so quickly. Photos attached are taken from a listing on Ebay 304220163650 We can see one yellow   *  4275b Hinge Plate 1 x 2 with 3 Fingers on End - Hollow Studs Parts: Hinge {Yellow} Asked you by message about this request, but I don't get any reply. You are adding both variant of both parts to the inventory, saying that one hollow 4275b can be seen on the image. But the image only shows the bottom. So far I don't see any proof of any of the 4 requests. Diana

[...] It seems that 4275b always has a closed tube at the bottom, so the change from 4275 undetermined to 4275b hollow studs will be approved. Diana (24 months ago, Jun 2, 2022, to Inventories Requests)
