New NXT 2.0 Retail Kit

If your Kit has this type of light sensor:-

you have an NXT 2.0 Retail MindStorms Kit. Congratulations! – This is a marvellous new Kit – you can use some of the Challenges, but there are quite a few little incompatibilities caused by the contents of this set differing from the NXT 1.0 Kits. These incompatibilities are being checked, and I hope to have Challenges that fit this new kit on the Web soon. In the meanwhile, have fun with the challenges marked as OK for the NXT 2, and also the built-in lessons LEGO has provided!

If you want to check the number of pieces in your NXT 2.0 LEGO set (LEGO part number 8547), a list is provided below. The list is also handy as the individual part numbers can be used when purchasing replacement pieces to replace any that are lost, broken, or sucked up by a vacuum cleaner...
