Which FANG/CLAW Variant is Rarer?

I am wondering which variant of the FANG/CLAW pack is rarer: the one with pilots in the vehicles as shown on the box, or the ones with pilots in the wrong vehicles? I just got back from a Wal-Mart I rarely visit and found four of these, with two being corrected and two being incorrect. Is this the general ratio, 50/50?

The one with the pilots in the wrong vehicles would be more "rare" i guess considering that the mistake has been corrected now and all the pilots will be in the right vehicle from now on

^^^^^

What he said. Check the date stamps on the four you found in the store and see if the corrected ones were packaged later. I have only found one error one thus far and all of the other ones I have seen have been corrected.

All of the listings on eBay contain the fixed version that I found.

Oops! I guess I shouldn't have opened mine with the error package. There goes my girls' college fund.

I bought them because I want a bunch of FANGs. But I don't want to open something that others will gladly trade me a premium item for. Maybe I can trade one of these for two regular "corrected" sets with somebody who collects this sort of thing. I did not ask the question thinking they will make me rich.
