Anything else is just a paint error. a Mistake. mistakes happen. Mistakes are generally bad and make the figure ugly. Rare, but ugly lol. And everyweek someone else posts a "new" "variant" like that turd that was selling a cobra trooper as a variant because the helmet was a little high up on the forehead.

How much do you want to bet that there is a cobra symbol underneath the shash. My guess is the wrong body was used.

Stalker was molded a totally different color, then changed early in the production. This is just a machine error where they forgot to add the Cobra symbol. While the guy might have paid big bucks for it, it's not going to hold any real value.
There's a big difference between production errors (where perhaps thousands of figures went to retail with errors) and a single machine error. Just my two cents... |

I have 2 Xamots from this 25th line where the Cobra emblem doesn't come to a point at the bottom like it should. Tomax's emblem is fine though.
Here is a link to a "variant" I made up to joke about all these so called "variants"... http://www.hisstank.com/forum/showthread.php?t=7003 |
