Well, if there is a real 1 etched into the gun, then is that a variant or a production error? Its still better than the ebay retard who tried to say the troopers visor was a little higher......

If you guys take a look at your Armored CCs, you'll see each one has a number etched in to the Gun - #1, #2, #4, etc.
I thought this was a variation myself about a month ago, and was advised that the # you see is just the weapons place in the mold; ie - That was Gun #1 in the mold. No variation what-so-ever. |

Hasbro realized with Star Wars in the 90's they could sell 3x the number of figures by creating variants and people are still falling for it, lol.

Again, these aren't variants.
For those that know the technical terms, please forgive me for butchering the following...but from an "Everyday joe" perspective... You have a mold. This mold can make 4 guns on a tree. Each mold is numbered, 1 - 4. So that gun (pictured in the above auction) has a gun from Mold #1. I have had 2 #2's & a #4. It's not a variation. I'm going to go find the link where we originally discussed this, as someone had a much better way of explaining it than I do |

It will never stop...any slight defect on the paint scheme or dings on the bubbles make anything a variant nowadays it seems!
