Yes, that is what I'm saying. You don't have to take my word for it, you can view the ad scan for yourself by following the link in one of my posts above.
Makita does indeed have a White Drill with the Hammer feature. It's the BHP452HW, which is essentially the same as the blue BHP452. Both are Compact Hammer Drills.
What I mentioned above was the fact that I haven't seen an LCT combo kit with the BHP452HW included. The LCT200W includes the BDF452HW, which is the normal Compact Drill/Driver. Same goes for the LCT300W and LCT400W.
I'll be able to get some more info about the deal today, so I'll try to keep you guys updated.
As far as Blue vs White, the only real difference is that the blue kit comes with full size batteries vs compact batteries in the white. Two more differences are the specs are a hair lower on Impact Driver in the white combo, and that I believe the white combo can only accept the compact batteries. I'll have to double check on the accepting batteries thing.
