I tried a couple searches and came up empty, I might just stink at searching... but maybe this is news to someone
Looking at the back of the IG SRO pack, you can see the image of Destro has been pretty plainly dropped in front of another picture (you can see part of the head and an extra pair of hands sticking out from behind him... it's not a Kali thing). If you look at the little "also available" pictures on the air or sea packs, you can see the original illustration. I see no reason for them to have changed it (in fact, they use a close-up of it on the bottom of the package with the little "Failure will not be considered" thing)... but there ya go. |

I've been wondering the same thing since I got my set a month ago. Why does Destro have two heads and three hands. Talk about quality control. I actually like the newer art work on the file card and bottom of the box.
The only thing that bugs me is why is the O.G. black & red Grenadier the 'officer' and the black and purple the 'trooper'? Hasbro even said the purple was a homage to Voltar. Oh well just glad I gotta set. Waiting for the comic pack #86 so I can get more Iron Grenadiers. Anybody want the Vipers from that set?

It was mentioned before actually. In one of the older pics, someone took a really clear picture of it. I'll see if I can find it.
*edit* found the thread. Look in this link and there's a really nice picture of what the guys above are talking about: http://www.hisstank.com/forum/g-i-jo...ve-2-hand.html
