PICS!! PLEASE!!
I've only seen the brown/blk ones and that is the one i'm pretty sure what they are suppose to come with. The solid black is definetly a variant.

Hmmm, could also just be a factory mistake.

But the solid-black is definitely the variant, I don't know if it's rarer but it's different.

Looks like a variant to me. BTW, I can't see the rifle on the left cardback. What color is it?

Rare indeed!!! I have 19, and none of them have a solid black rifle! I purchased all of them at Wal-Mart...does anyone know where he purchased this variant?

By the way, I'm new to the boards, so.....Hey everybody!

DUDE! I'm from Fort Madison! Moved to the ass end of toy distribution in Oklahoma though....

But more than likely, it is a simple paint error, someone at the factory missed painting a figure and it got out into the line.

Unlike the black timbers (which have a completely different paint mask), this is just a case of an extra layer of paint not being added.

So that's where they all went. $20 troop builders on Ebay, here we come.

I just paid $13 for a single pack Cobra Officer at a con. :(
