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! _ADDICT |

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.
