Question British Airways 747-400 Two Pack

I have a question. I just received the British Airways 'Wunala Dreaming' and 'Nalanji Dreaming' Two Pack, and while looking at the two side by side, I noticed both have very different window patterns, mostly between the first and third doors on both sides, yet the box lists both as 436's, any idea why the vastly different pattern?

You probably have a slight imperfection and a window is missing. One of my birds was missing the "A" in British "A"irways.

Nope, some of the windows are missing all together, while others are just plugs. There is a year between deliveries, it is possible that the window line was changed.

Hmm, I see what you mean. Hadn't noticed that before.

I'm taking a really wild guess here, but I would think that it's not an error, but based on each aircraft which may have differently configured 1st class sections?

Phill, I hope you didn't return that model. It's probably quite a rare error!

Negative. I don't think it's a printing error.
