Possible Variant.

Picked up two Major Bloods today. One has the Dog Tags.. the other doesn't. Could be a packaging error, but thought I would throw it out there to see if anyone else that has seen this.

Will try and post pics later.

Well since the dog tags are removeable, it's definately a factory error/missing piece.

They do sit really high due to Zartans neck being so wide at the base. Nothing a little hot water didn't fix.

As for it being a variant.. I figured it was more of a factory screw up, but just wanted to throw it out there to see if anyone else has had this come up as well to make sure.

As what to due with the figure.. Although throwing it up on Ebay to make back some cash would be nice. I will more than likely use him to make a new custom Bludd with an actual articulated elbow. Instead of using a Armored CC, I will just use the existing arm cut, pinned, fix, then casted. This way it retains the look, but it also can be of better use.

Going to take pics now.
