Thanks! Jen I compared your images here to a pretty old one that I have from   *  8926-1 (Inv) Toa Undersea Attack 348 Parts, 6 Minifigures, 2007 Sets: BIONICLE: Playsets It is a trans-red version of the part with design number 46413 and mold numbers 2-01. So the one I am looking at was made from the original molds for this part created in 2002-3. Since the same mold was used for ABS and polycarbonate versions of the part, I can be sure that this is the original design. Looking closely, I can't see any real differences between the old one that I have and your images. The one I have only has seven teeth on the hinge fingers, also. This goes along with what I have found from some other parts: that the seven-tooth design of the hinge fingers goes back a long time to shortly after the introduction of the click hinge system. Funny that we only learned about the difference a few years ago. Cheers, Randy
