Hello Fellow Tankers!
Many of you have debated with me over the past month or so over what is a variant, etc. blah, blah, blah : - ) This thread is not to argue what is a variant, or error, or whatever, but simply to inform other Tankers of the different "Versions" of new items that are being found, both carded and loose. For instance, my latest find yesterday at Wal-Mart..... I finally found my tan A.W.E. Striker, yeah! But...A major problem, some factory worker forgot that it needed it's front push bar and headlight assembly. : - ( I call it an error, and collect some of them, not sure if I will be keeping this one, but no matter what you call it, no matter if you collect it, please respect it and please report it to us fellow Tankers. |

In the last couple of weeks I've seen a Clutch without the moustache (looks like an Amish guy in Army fatigues) and a Comic Pack Wild Bill without the holsters. I think Hasbro's quality control department must either be asleep, on vacation, or got laid off when the plant closed.

What do you mean by "suicide wrists"? I am not one to collect every single variation of every figure in the series but I think people claiming these differences as variants and making big bucks is getting out of hand. That is my feeling on it but I would still like an answer to my question if someone could help a fellow Tanker out please.
Thanks |
