I noticed this when mine didn't match the ones ebay. I wouldn't consider it a variant though. Hasbro is prob trying to make it look like two different characters since it's a generic soldier.

thats some ingenious marketing. they should have changed the helmets as well though.
that way its more provacative for people to buy multiples. |

probably the commando got tired of carrying the shield.... hence the variant.

This was mentioned well before the figures hit stores but it's interesting that Hasbro went to the trouble to create separate packaging for essentially the same figure. Nothing is changed in terms of colors, accessories, etc., right?

Gee would be nice if I ever seen them at the damn store whenever they come out. Variant or no variant I have yet to see them.

I threw away the packaging for mine so I forgot which way mine was packaged. All I know is that it's an awesome figure, just wish the backpack could stay on better when the smaller vest is attached, and that the head sculpt matched the movie look as opposed to the 25th/modern era look(the head sculpt looks more cartoony, or it could be just the way it's painted).
