just to clarify... I'm using the term 'variant' loosely because we don't know if this is new or older than the volcano viper we ended up
getting. one is a repaint of the other but since we can only speculate, i went with 'variant.'
and I was not suggesting the leg switch has anything to do with it being a variant...
just that the 2 we saw have the same legs so with this one... that makes THREE of these orange ones we know to exist. that's what i meant. sorry if it wasn't clear.

diversity
; varying: variant shades of color.
This should be fun.
Okay this is NOT the one from eBay. In fact anyone that talked to me the day the auction ended knows how miffed I was that I didn't win it. I know who won it and it's in a very revered collection and so I'm glad it ended up where it did.
I was very happy, though, to be offered this one. Now about this one... the lower legs are switched. Which differs from the 2 we saw via eBay and via the seller coming onto Hisstank and posting pics of etc... and the one that I have seems to have different paint app flaws. So I'm gonna say
that makes three
so far.
My pics start in the second post.
Here's a pic of the eBay auction Volcano Viper and the one that the seller posted on Hisstank for everyone to see. You can see the paint differences but the lower legs are identical. When you see my pics, you'll see the lower legs are switched.
Anyways I'm not going to say too much. I'll wait and see what the reactions and thoughts are.
