Hey does anyone know what the deal is with the real "SHINY" gi joe logos on the 25th singles?? I picked me up a real nice snow job like that. I see them on ebay listed as "VARIANTS" & "CHASE" cards. Any help would be great.

Yeah, i found the shiny logo snow job and opened the dull logo one. I hope hasbro isnt re-printing the waves and changing the logos. Looks like they are going "star wars" on these figures now. More and more repaints, re prints, and re packs just keep coming out.

I heard that it might be just due to a change in the "chrome foil" material that they were using, or just a new batch of it. Take it as a running production change and not as an intended variant.
An intended variant is usually mentioned by a toy company in hopes of people buying more product. Like the Marvel Legends variants where you have 2 of the same character, but they have 2 different costumes. If you see any figures that have paint, logos, or weapons missing, or even have the wrong parts, or a figure packaged in the package of another figure, these are all factory errors and should not be called or considered variants. |

Yeah, i noticed the batch number on the back was higher. Your probably right. They seem to be popping up more and more as i seen the earlier waves showing up again on the shelves.
