isnt that how it was with the 25th wave 1 SE? at first all the black timbers came out, then they were discontinued.
same with the clear wraith. I remember when every box opened from bbts had a clear wraith in it. the shark tattoo shipwreck was also released first, followed by the "thought to be variant" anchor tattoo. seems like a pattern if you ask me It might not be known for 6 months (or longer) which Timber becomes the variant.

Maybe the grey was made for the Asia market, but came into the US in smaller quantities? It's what Nike does with shoes. Euro and Asia releases are quite sought after by collectors in the States.
I dunno, just venturing a guess.

Either one would be fine by me as long as I could find them.

All I have to say is I must have spoke it into fate.
SO I walk into Target 2day at 2pm thinking I wont find a thing,just the usual. LOW & BEHOLD as I rounded the aisle I saw the Snake Eyes PP w/Grey TIMBER looking at me!!Can you imagine the high!Not only that baby but see the others I got I havent found until 2day like Helix & Flash! Happy Hunting!! Good luck!! Either the Black or Grey is a variant for sure now that they are hitting retail.There was only the 1 SE though.

well i have seen both black and grey timbers here in nashville. i have seen fewer grey but really i think it is just a running change or a 50/50 thing.
i have a black timber of the 25th snake eyes unopened and didnt even know he was the rare one haha. |

I'm going to laugh when people buy the gray one for obscene amounts of loot and the black one will once again be the variant. Just buy a few of each and wait it out if you really want to know. Look at it as a long term investment. Then again it's a toy so it is only as much as some fool wants to actually pay for it. This and the Firefly were done on purpose. The 25th line was not. These movie figures will only be valuable now. In two more months they'll be worth a wopping $7.99.

So another gray Timber was spotted with the Wave 3 figures ... I am starting to think the Black Timber is going to be the variant in the long run.
