Hi all,

I recently purchased some what was listed as genuine LEGO string (cord thin, Bricklink x77ac*). However, the string I received seems to be very different in texture and color than the other identical string types I already had from sealed sets (both older and recent sets). Please see the attached image (click for larger version); the top string is one I had from set 75259 (released 2019), the bottom is the string I recently received. The material is noticeably stiffer, has a richer black color, and does not fray at all (something I have always observed with strings of this type). The string I received was sold as new, yet did not arrive in the typical cardboard packaging but simply wound up along a small, white piece of tape.

In short, I am not quite sure I received original LEGO string. Could anyone confirm whether the bottom string shown is a perhaps modern variant, or do all modern strings still look like the top example?

Many thanks for any help!
