They don't own it tho. Hasbro has NEVER used a part that was made for the club, and there are many examples (such as 50th Outback) where the Club made a new headsculpt for a character and then later when Hasbro revisists them they make their own new head. What most people forget is that the club was NOT Hasbro but was a third parted that was granted license to use Hasbro's molds and properties.
Also, what instances of that are their aside from Outback? I can’t immediately recall any.

Correct. The Club used a previously unproduced Hasbro Head Sculpt.

I can't believe with the reports of wave 2 that no one has opened them up to get the full break down with pictures! What's wrong with you people?!

Wasn't the 50th HnR head released by Hasbro after it was used in the Joecon set, and in FSS 3.0? Too bad they didn't use the TF RB head.

HnR was concept vault, so it originated with Hasbro and not the Club. I don’t know of any character that the Club originated a head for that was then made by hasbro using a different head aside from Outback.

But yes, you are right, I don't think Hasbro has had a retail release of a head tooled for the club. Big Boa, Munitia, Frostbite and collar, Female Cobra Troopers, etc. Too bad they can't use them. I would love to see retail produce with club sculpts in them.

Wait. When Hasbro released the 50th Outback, they just used the 25th head from the AOCI set. They didn't make a new head for that 50th OB figure.

Outback is the only example though (please correct me if that’s wrong), and any number of factors could have informed that decision. I’m not convinced that hasbro can’t use them. The sample size isn’t big enough. I understand the Club commissioned them, but it’s possible Hasbro acquired them after the Club closed.

But I’m meandering off-topic. Point is, the TF RB head was tooled by Hasbro. Why they made a new one- who knows?
