  Hi Nubs (or anyone else),
I see that this thread is set to "Completed", but I was wondering if
there is any other method to convincingly tell parts 30366pb02 and 30366pb03
apart.

I have seven of these that I have pulled from various bulk lots. The pattern
colour appears to be LBG, which corresponds to pb03, yet the lines on all seven
are thin and defined, which corresponds to pb02. In the BrickLink comparison
image, the "thick" lines for the LBG version are not apparent on any
of my seven.

I did find the alternate number 42018 on two of the seven, making those two the
LBG pb03 version, yet this does not conclusively prove which version the other
five are.

Furthermore, it was noted that in the BL comparison image, there is a black diagonal
line closing off the bottom triangles near the horizontal inverted studs near
the base on the LBG pb03 version, yet this bottom line is missing on the LG pb02
version. In my seven, I see that five do have the line and two do not, but once
again, the colour tone for all seven really looks like LBG. Is the presence/absence
of this horizontal line just a printing error, or is it a conclusive difference
between the LG and LBG versions?

Any guidance will be appreciated,
Dennis

im 99% certain its the light bluish gray version that has the alternate number
and not the light gray version (light bluish gray lines seem "thicker"
as it's practically impossible to tell light gray from light bluish gray
even side by side for the print of this part)
alternate number
42018pb03
(sorry for having multiple requests instead of just 1 but I've got limited
desk room right now as I'm sorting thru lots of larger stickered/printed
parts so i cant leave parts laying around for to long to double check before
posting)

It looks like the easy way to tell them apart are to look at those "dots"
around the window.
Do remember that both LG and LBG has color variants.
pb03 have Black dots
pb02 have Black circles
