Yo Joe guys! Or in this case Coooobra! I went to a vintage toy store after work today. They had 4 loose Classified BATs at a decent price( $15 a piece ). I bought all 4. When I got home I noticed 1 of them had the Cobra emblem on both his left and right arm! Strange huh? Is this a possible variant or just a factory error? Anybody else seen this. I have a lot of BATs and this is the only one with a Cobra emblem on both arms.🤔

I just checked my BAT #33 for reference.
Because you purchased loose figures there could be any explanation, although variant figure would unlikely be one of them. The previous owner likely was an BAT Army builder and may have pulled multiple figures apart for customizing purposes, then reassembled that one incorrectly with two left shoulder Cobra emblem pieces. Perhaps the Chinese worker drone in the huge industrial complex's these figures come from, was extremely tired after a fourth double-shift in a row and assembled it incorrectly from the parts bins he/she was working from. Realistically as the figures were purchased loose, anybody's guess would be a plausible explanation.

Agreed with all your facts plus being loose wouldn?t mean anything because it?s not sealed and it wouldn?t be worth shit anyway I could go make a bat w/out any cobra symbols on it

I know factory errors happen all the time. I was curious if anyone else had seen one like this. When My first Tiger Force Outback shipped from Target he had two right for forearms. Personally, I think the double emblem is cool. It is my BAT squad leader now. 🤓

Likely factory error that makes a 'unique' BAT Command Unit for your collection.
